Watching Over Cradle Mountain's Wombats
As dusk falls over the wild, rugged Cradle Mountain landscape, placid yet sturdy bare-nosed wombats (Vombatus ursinus) begin to emerge from their burrows, quietly roaming and grazing the native grassland plains under fading light. Wildcare's Cradle Mountain Volunteers (WCMV) proudly partner with the Tasmania Parks and Wildlife Service (PWS) at Cradle Mountain to help monitor and protect these iconic, mainly nocturnal creatures.
