WAN'KURRA THE GOLDEN BANDICOOT


CHILDREN'S BOOKS

Wan’kurra (Golden Bandicoots) are an animal that has disappeared from most of mainland Australia. Their last recorded sighting in the Northern Territory was in the 1950’s. When hairs are discovered on Martjanba Island in scats of wild dogs, Aboriginal people of the Wessel Islands are asked about their knowledge of Wan’kurra, and reveal the story. Can these small animals be brought back from the brink of extinction by translocating them to other islands?
