Finalist – threatened species: Standing Watch

‘Huddled together for warmth on a cold morning, these juvenile #numbats (affectionately known as numbubs) survey their surroundings for any potential threats. With introduced species such as the feral cat and European red fox to contend with, their formative years are spent learning to blend in with their woodland surroundings, always alert to danger.’ Wiilman country, Dryandra, Western Australia.
