Saltwater crocodiles are often spotted lying in the sun, but Australian researchers have discovered it’s just as vital for these reptiles to remain cool.

So, why do crocodiles need to regulate their body temperature? And what does this teach us about these iconic Aussie predators?

We asked PhD candidate Kaitlin Barham of The University of Queensland for the facts; this is 60 Seconds of Science. https://youtu.be/J-1OmXGrq_g

This wombat is making the most of the long weekend in true blue Aussie fashion – with a day at the beach! ☀️

Did you know that wombats sometimes forage on the beach? They will wander the sands, snuffling about for salt marsh plants like samphire!

It seems numbats (Myrmecobius fasciatus) can't handle the #heat!

New research shows numbats are reaching a body temperature greater than 40°C within only ten minutes of activity in the sun, despite using fur techniques to regulate body temperature.

So, what does this mean for the future conservation of this endangered native species? https://ausgeo.co/numbats
