They are found in four semi-arid areas, with pockets of territory in the NT, SA and WA. The sandhill #dunnart is picture here (bottom) alongside the red-tailed phascogale. This image is from the 1896 “Report on the work of the Horn Scientific Expedition to Central Australia” by Baldwin Spencer.

Image shows a photo of a tiny sandhill dunnart, with its cute mouse like face, black eyes, large ears, small paws and long tail. It is sitting on a sandy ground with some trees in the background.

Not just a cute face, the sandhill dunnart is a tiny desert predator with a big role to play! 🐭✨

By day it curls up in sandy burrows, and by night it hunts insects and reptiles among the spinifex sandplains of South & Western Australia, helping keep ecosystems in balance.
