It's World Numbat Day!
OK, you might be asking: World what day? Meet the numbat! Although it's one of many marsupials found here in Western Australia, the numbat is unique, sharing no relation to any living species. But it's also critically endangered: This little fella is one of fewer than 1,000 of its kind left in the wild.
