The Numbat is a small, diurnal marsupial native to Australia. They live in the eucalyptus forests in burrows or hollow logs. They are about 20-30 cm long and have a red fur colour with white stripes at the front half of their body. Their back half is black with white stripes and ends in a long, bushy tail. They have a long, narrow snout, small, upright ears and a black stripe going through their eyes. They exclusively feed on Termites; because they do not chew them, numbats lack teeth. They also do not need to drink water.

Numbats are solitary, very territorial and have very big home ranges due to their dependency on termites. During mating season in December and January, males will rub an oily substance exuding from their chest on rocks and trees to signal that they are looking for a mate and to scare competitors off. After a pregnancy of only two weeks, four young are born which will attach to the mother to be carried and hidden for about 7 months until they are to big to be carried. They will stay in the nest for 2-3 months, then they start coming out of the burrow and learn how to eat termites. They will continually travel further from the burrow until they leave their mother in time for the next mating period.

Numbats used to be found all across southern Australia, however the species has only survived in two small areas. They are threatened by habitat loss and predators newly introduced to Australia, especially foxes and cats, so much that they need to be protected in fenced sanctuaries. There are an estimated 1,000-1,500 individuals left in the wild. Extensive projects to protect them from extinction have emerged in recent years. Numbats have been reintroduced to several protected sanctuaries.
