Do you think the #ThreatenedSpecies Strategy is only saving cute and cuddly wildlife? I know its not. It's for all our creatures great and small. That's why today I asked my team to update me on some of the not-so-cute species we are supporting.
Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. But this Greater wart-nosed horseshoe bat was one that I thought I'd share.
Some of the other species my team reminded me of included:
the Five-clawed worm-skink
native rats including the Wopilkara, Dayang and Antina
Stoddart’s Helicarionid land snail
the Shield-backed trapdoor spider
Vanderschoors stag beetle
the Border thick-tailed ghecko
Bead glasswort
the Blind velvet worm
the Christmas island spleenwort
the Leafless tongue orchid
the Central north burrowing crayfish
And even two trees, two orchids, and three daisies that don’t have names yet on Norfolk Island!
