Numbats have stolen our hearts! These adorable marsupials sleep in hollow fallen logs or burrows and eat 20,000 termites a day with their long sticky tongues. They don’t drink water – termites keep them hydrated.
Numbat families used to live from Victoria to WA, but because of habitat destruction, foxes and cats, now they cling to existence in just two places in the wild.
Will you lodge a missing creature alert with your local Member of Parliament? Tell them we need strong national environment laws to protect the places and wildlife we love – and ask them to raise this with their party leader.
Fill out the webform with your name and why you care. We'll print your name and message on a special missing creature alert and post it to your local MP. If you prefer, you can print and post it yourself.

we need stronger environment laws.. it is obvious why… no environments for animals =no animals = no humans…
the study has been done ! and this will be the outcome..
strong national environment laws R needed to protect their homes🙏🙏 already endangered… Don’t let them disappear 🙏
Please bring in the strongest Environmental Laws possible. We have an emergency on our hands, species are threatened with extinction, this can’t be ignored ant longer. It should never have reached this point. Save their habitat NOW. ACT NOW.

Please consider the amount of mining and forestation destruction that you allow. Our wonderful numbat and others are disappearing and we need to help them survive and thrive. They cant speak for themselves but they can disappear forever which would be heartbreaking. Please stand up for our beautiful country and the creatures that are trying to survive.
Thank you for listening to my concerns.

We should take care of our endangered species for our future generations..
I from a child studied and always wanted to see a tasmanian devil, even now typing this it saddens me that I never got to see one..
We owe it to the planet and the environment to protect our beautiful native areas
The current laws to protect native wildlife are ineffective. Their habitats are being cleared and their extinction is imminent.
When will you wake up and realise that human survival depends on a biodiversity system that includes all other fauna and flora! You are destroying their habitat!
Our landscapes, our native animals and our plants are so unique – they are special because they have evolved and developed in isolation on this beautiful continent of Australia. Our south-west is even more unique. We need strong environmental laws to protect our native plants and animals, we need funds for threatened species, we need scientists employed by government to provide us with the best means of saving our flora and fauna.
Please commit to putting the environment first – we need a healthy environment for a healthy country.
We need to protect our native animals for future generations time to do this now before they no longer excit
Please improve our environmental laws to save thes beutiful creatures from extinction. Stop the mining and clearing of their habitat to enable them to live.
Please stop allowing these beautiful creatures to disappear.
Please stop protecting developers and profits.
Please stop and think that when these creatures have gone it will be forever and future generations don’t deserve this!
your kids won’t know they existed. and you’ll know you could’ve done something about it.
I can’t believe the numbat and many other wildlife are now endangered. There must be another way. Our wildlife heritage is more important than any mining or other industry that is putting them in danger of extinction.
I implore you to do all in your power to stop these native animals from imminent extinction
I want future generations to know these beautiful creatures first hand not from a book or video. Please take action to protect their habitat otherwise we will lose them forever.
Dear MP,
We know how flora and fauna of this land are interconnected and extinction of one will affect all of us. I am sure you value our great nature as everybody else. With this great but also fragile nature, which has nurtured peopke of this land comes great responsibility. Not a single extinction is acceptable in 21st century. Please do whatever you can to stop that happening.
Regards,
Keivan
Surely there is no need to justify the saving of bio diversity. If there is then we are indeed in deep trouble!
We cannot let another native animal become extinct. Our whole ecological system is dependent on each link of the chain. Don’t wait until it’s too late or only when it effects people because of the increase in termite numbers and the destruction of property. Then it’s too late.
