This cutie is a southern shovel-nosed snake (Brachyurophis semifasciatus), another snake species we caught during a pitfall trapping survey at AWC's Paruna Sanctuary last week. Apparently, they feed primarily on the eggs of other reptiles 🥚. #WildOz

The Gunduwa region is in the transitional zone between the Southwest Australia Biodiversity Hotspot and the more semi-arid interior of the continent. But it's a hotspot in itself, within the centre of endemism for acacias, and home for a plethora of rare & endangered species. #BadimiaCountry

We had our first decent dump of rain in a while at Mt Gibson last night, which means the frogs are back out and about in abundance. At this time of year, the chorus seems to be dominated by the Shoemaker's Frog (Neobatrachus sutor; left) and the Wheatbelt Frog (N. kunapalari; right). #WildOz

Fabulous to see more chuditch being translocated into the Mt Gibson Wildlife Sanctuary by one of our long-standing partners: the Australian Wildlife Conservancy. #BadimiaCountry
