It's been good to have a bit of fun with these challenge charts

Thanks! I thoroughly enjoyed working on this, especially taking in all the adorable photos of bilbies 🥹

Greater Bilby Populations in Sanctuaries. The latest Australian Wildlife Conservancy’s Annual Bilby Census estimates there are about 5,330 total bilbies in their sanctuaries. This estimate includes about 1,834 bilbies at the Scotia Wildlife Sanctuary on Barkandji country in far western NSW as well as bilbies across 5 other sanctuaries. A visualisation. 1 circle = ~10 bilbies. Yellow dots are Scotia Wildlife Sanctuary. Blue dots are 5 other sanctuaries. The counts grow year by year from 1230 bilbies in 2021 to 5330 in 2025. Chart: @DiDoesDigital Icon: bilby by Abby from Noun Project (CC BY 3.0) Data: Australian Wildlife Conservancy, 4 April 2026

Sanctuaries help protect bilbies from cats and foxes, giving the vulnerable marsupial a chance to survive. And it's working!

Tessellated Morays & Tessellated Cones. There are recorded sightings of 183 Tessellated Morays (eels) vs 331 Tessellated Cones (sea snails) in The Atlas of Living Australia. Both are weird sea beasts. One bites and one stings. A mosaic visualisation of the recorded sightings by species.

Mangroves Prevented $57 Million Worth of Building Damage (2020–21) Mangroves are critical for coastal resilience, food security, biodiversity protection, and climate change mitigation. The sankey diagram shows total coastal extent of mangroves: 1,146,131 hectares. Qld: 446,924 hectares; NT: 432,262 hectares; WA: 231,802 hectares; and SA, NSW & Vic 35,143 hectares. Big statistics show 208281 kilotonnes of
stored carbon, 7653 people protected in
the highest risk zone, 4006 dwellings protected
around coastlines. Data: Australian Bureau of Statistics (2020-21), National Ecosystem Accounts, experimental estimates, ABS Website, accessed 30 April 2025. Chart: @DiDoesDigital.

Mangrove Forests Are Nurseries. Mangroves are breeding and nursery grounds for many fish species, including mangrove jack and barramundi. A photo of a rocky beach with sparse mangrove trees in the water. Photo: Mangroves at Clairview by Wesley Moore.

Mangroves Protect Our Coastline. By naturally buffering the land from wind and storm surge, mangroves reduce flood depths, erosion, and damage. A photo of a wide river lined by thick mangrove forest into the distance. Photo: Mangroves at Maroochy River by Wesley Moore.

We Need to Protect Our Mangroves. Around 17% of Australia's mangroves have been destroyed since European settlement. To protect this valuable, natural resource, we can: Report damage to mangroves to the local state/territory environment department; Avoid walking, riding, or driving through mangrove areas, especially at low tide; Dispose of rubbish, oils, and chemicals responsibly; Remove weeds; Join a local monitoring program (see MangroveWatch); and Vote for a representative that pledges strong climate and environment action

One mangrove tree can remove 0.3 tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere over its growth life. Mangrove forests can hold nearly 400 tonnes of CO2 per hectare in their living biomass and in the top metre of soil.

The danger noodles are actually very cute, they pop their head up at the window to say hello when they are roaming about looking for tasty lizards or mice. Worth travelling a long way to see them.

Stop killing brown snakes – they could be a farmer’s best friend The benefits of snake populations on agricultural land far outweigh the potential costs, and farmers should tolerate rather than kill them.

It's best to leave snakes alone, not just for you, but for them!

Despite High Income, Australia Faces Neglected Tropical Diseases The number of people in Australia requiring intervention against Neglected Tropical Diseases has come down. Line chart of numbers over time from 2010 to 2022 with a spike in 2013. 2010: 89,732; 2011: 72,560; 2012: 60,279; 2013: 144,692; 2014: 54,311; 2015: 17,476; 2016: 20,994; 2017: 20,123; 2018: 20,123; 2019: 13,700; 2020: 20,401; 2021: 18,286; 2022: 3,477 Data: World Health Organization, CC BY 4.0, https://data.who.int/indicators/i/95935F3/2D6FBE4 (Accessed on 25 March 2025).

What Are Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs)? Neglected tropical diseases are a group of conditions caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi and toxins, and can cause significant disfigurement, disability, and death. They include preventable and treatable diseases that affect more than 1 billion people globally, especially impoverished communities in tropical regions. These diseases are “neglected” because they’re barely present on the global health agenda. Limited resources are dedicated to tackling them.

The World Health Organization's List of Neglected Tropical Diseases: Buruli ulcer; Chagas disease; dengue and chikungunya; dracunculiasis; echinococcosis; foodborne trematodiases; human African trypanosomiasis; leishmaniasis; leprosy; lymphatic filariasis; mycetoma, chromoblastomycosis and other deep mycoses; noma; onchocerciasis; rabies; scabies and other ectoparasitoses; schistosomiasis; soil-transmitted helminthiases; snakebite envenoming; taeniasis/cysticercosis; trachoma; yaws Source: World Health Organization, https://www.who.int/health-topics/neglected-tropical-diseases (Accessed on 25 March 2025).

Have We Eliminated Trachoma in Australia? Trachoma is a preventable eye infection that can lead to blindness. Australia's the only high-income country that has trachoma. A couple of years ago, we reached the World Health Organization's threshold for “elimination as a public health problem”. The prevalence is really low now. So long as our trend of squashing it continues, we'll be able to declare it eliminated. 2025 could be the year!

To help stamp out trachoma, you can donate to the Fred Hollows Foundation to treat it directly or donate to a charity that helps communities emerge from poverty and break the cycle of infection and re-infection.

Total Dust Emissions Across Australia Airborne soil particles are worse in summer where ground is dry and there's less vegetation cover compared to winter. A grouped bar chart of amount of dust in tonnes per hectare to June 2020 grouped by Emission, Dry deposition, and Wet deposition shows the highest emissions from Nov to Jan around 3k tonnes per hectare. Dry depositions are also much higher than wet depositions. Data: Emmerson KM & Keywood MD (2021).

Dust Travels Everywhere From July 2019 to June 2020, the estimated total dust emissions in Australia was 40 tonnes per hectare. Dust that's swept into the atmosphere ranges from smaller than 2.5 micrometres to hundreds of micrometres. The larger particles cause visibility issues and filthy solar panels. They “deposit” onto the ground swiftly, meaning they don't get to travel far. The smaller particles, however, stay in the air longer and can waft thousands of kilometres onto cities far away.

Dust Can Be Gross Airborne dust can muck up your respiratory system. Mineral dust contains metals like iron that cause lung inflammation. Thanks to the extra droughts and bushfires from climate change, we’re likely to see an increase in the number of dust days too. Vegetation programs might help keep the dust down. Australia generally has great air quality, except during specific events like dust storms and bushfires. There’s increasing demand for real-time air monitoring to help people know when to close the windows or mask up. Source: Emmerson KM & Keywood MD (2021).

Find South Using the Stars In the southern hemisphere, you can use the Southern Cross (aka “Crux”) and The Pointers constellations to find South. The chart of the Southern Cross and The Pointers shows a line drawn from the highest star of the cross, Gracux, through the lowest star of the cross, Acrux, and another line drawn perpendicular from Alpha Centauri and Beta Centauri, and the two lines marked as roughly south, not far from where the South Pole is marked. Chart: @DiDoesDigital

Check the Star Clock: Part 1 Imagine a 24-hour clock face. Around 1st April, Crux appears high in the sky at midnight. At the 20 hour mark, it's ~8pm. The 24-hour clock face has 0 at the top, labelled (midnight), 6 to the right, 12 at the bottom, labelled (midday), and 18 to the left. The Southern Cross constellation is positioned at the 20 hour mark with repeating, fading copies of it clockwise indicating the direction of travel. The chart is labelled 1st April
 8pm. Chart: @DiDoesDigital

Check the Star Clock: Part 2 For each month after April, take 2 hours. At 1st May, if Crux is at the “20” mark, subtract 1 month × 2 hours to get 18: ~6pm. The 24-hour clock face has 0 at the top, labelled, 6 to the right, 12 at the bottom, and 18 to the left. The Southern Cross constellation is positioned at the 20 hour mark. An arrow points anti-clockwise, labelled "Subtract 2 hours". The chart is labelled 1st May 6pm. Chart: @DiDoesDigital

You Can Find South and the Time! Around 1st June, when Crux appears at the “6” hour mark, subtract 2 months × 2 hours to get 2, which means it’s ~2am. The 24-hour clock face has 0 at the top, labelled, 6 to the right, 12 at the bottom, and 18 to the left. The Southern Cross constellation is positioned at the 6 hour mark. An arrow points anti-clockwise, labelled "Subtract 4 hours". The chart is labelled 1st June
 2am. Chart: @DiDoesDigital

Down under, you can use the Southern Cross to tell time and direction.

Aboriginal Australians are among the world's first astronomers. The southern cross forms part of the Emu in the Sky, a dark constellation, which has featured in storytelling for thousands of years.

Our Geological Heritage is Precious Geoheritage helps define Australia through its iconic landscape. Our geoheritage has significant aesthetic, cultural, economic/tourism, and environmental value. It also informs our future climate. Like biodiversity, geoheritage is a form of natural heritage but benefits from separate recognition. For example, it requires different conservation strategies to plants and animals. Australia has an old and stable land mass, so we have heaps of preserved geological features rarely found elsewhere. McConnell A, Janke T, Cumpston Z & Cresswell I (2021). Australia state of the environment 2021: heritage, independent report to the Australian Government Minister for the Environment, Commonwealth of Australia, Canberra, DOI: 10.26194/7w85-3w50.

Tasmania Has Special Old Rocks Tasmania is a global geodiversity hotspot with rocks of every geological period from the Mesoproterozoic. Unlike most of Australia, Tasmania keeps a nice record of geoconservation sites. You can find info about: - 39 globally significant sites - 26 rarities - 32 outstanding references Entries in the Tasmanian Geoconservation Database also include the geoconservation values the sites encompass, their significance to conservation, their sensitivity to disturbance, and advice on site management. Data: Natural Values Atlas (www.naturalvaluesatlas.tas.gov.au), 21 Apr 2025, © State of Tasmania · Analysis: @DiDoesDigital

Can We Protect Our Geoheritage? The pressures having the greatest impact on geoheritage include: - “Inadequate resourcing for heritage conservation/management.” - “Inadequate protections (poor statutory controls and poor governance)” The highest priority action to improve the management of geoheritage is: - “Improved recognition, including at the statutory level, and moving beyond land-based-only heritage” Vote for representatives who pledge conservation action.
