- Great grab by Bec and Holly! A tiny Pilbara ningaui turning up on a pebble mound. This species is the most common captured on the mounds (after pebble mice!). Great timing for my MSc marsupial biol students and their lecture on burrowers as habitat advocates. Banjima Country giving out the goods.
- This wee rascal has gone untrappable for 2 years!! Well done to @rebeccajquah.bsky.social and Holly (MSc student) who caught her this morning. Aptly named Mojo Jojo, she is a very special mouse. MJ is allowing us to monitor the build a new mound-burrow system - literally from the ground up!
- High drama on the mounds … dingo tries for a pebble mouse! @rebeccajquah.bsky.social
