Macrotis lagotis
The rabbit bandicoot is a marsupial mammal from Australia. It has long ears like a rabbit, strong front paws for digging, and gray-blue fur.
The rabbit bandicoot differs from other bandicoots in its large size and very long ears. It is important for nature because its burrows provide shelter for many small animals, and it helps spread plant seeds through the soil.
