September 25, 2020
Conservationists in Australia are going to great lengths to help Greater Bilbies. Ten of the endangered creatures were flown from Taronga Western Plains Zoo into a protected enclosure in Sturt National Park in New South Wales. These rare marsupials will have almost 5,000 acres to themselves, free of feral animals, so they can create a new home in the desert. It's one of the largest areas of its kind. Bilbies are also known as rabbit-bandicoots. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.
