| Though chiefly a root and fungus eater, today's rufous bettong is in fact frequently observed to chew on animal bones. |
|
| A program in northern NSW is helping to save the endangered rufous bettong, a macropod that plays an important part in forest ecosystems. |
|
| The winery has a wetland centre in South Australia where it is also intended to release brush-tailed bettong and numbats later in the year. |
|
| A related species, the burrowing bettong, will scavenge sheep carcasses. |
|
| Before final insulation, the assemblages contain a wide range of terrestrial fauna including wallaby, bettong, possum, bandicoot, bilby, snake and lizard. |
|
| We examined the effects of mammal foraging on the availability of soil nutrients, using diggings made by the brush-tailed bettong or woylie as a model. |
|
| The woylie belongs to the great treasury of marsupials that we revere and know nothing about. As I learnt that day, the boodie and the woylie are different species of bettong. |
