15.01.2022 One of Australia's most beautiful (and unique!) animals, the platypus! Can you tell us your favourite facts about these strange monotremes?!

14.01.2022 Mimi update! Although she now has a permanent wink, Mimi is in her final stages of rehabilitation. She has cleared a nasty infection and is seen here having so...me laser therapy on her rump. Her fur is starting to grow back and as soon as she has enough "cushion" for her rump, she will return to the wild. Send her love! Thank you for your support. We couldn't do what we do, without you! https://www.friendsofthekoala.org/make-online-donation/ @ifawaustralia @simplycleanhome @heska_au @wwf_australia Video @Ina

11.01.2022 Giddy-Up! A Brisbane hotel quarantine room has been transformed into a scene from the Wild West by a Sydney man who fashioned himself a cowboy outfit and a "...trusty steed" from brown paper bags. MORE: https://ab.co/2PwKIH0 Art director David Marriott has been keeping himself and people around the world entertained while he spends a fortnight at the Rydges South Bank hotel by getting creative with the packaging that carried food to his room. Mr Marriott, who travelled to the UK after his father died from COVID-19, told ABC Brisbane he had brought a stereo and an art kit with him to keep busy in isolation. He said he was inspired to make a hat with a poke bowl and then started cutting up the bags to cheer himself up. "I kept all my bags and I thought, 'I'm gonna make myself a hat for that brown paper cowboy I've been talking about', so I got my scissors out and my glue and started making a hat," he said. "Then I thought, 'Oh I need a jacket', and then I made a jacket and a waistcoat and then a gun and then chaps I made some chaps and then I made the whole outfit and thought, 'Well, I need friends.' "I found in my cupboard an ironing board and I dragged it out and put a desk lamp on it and I thought, 'My God, there we go there's the skeleton of a horse'. "From there it was just like sticking and cutting, sticking and cutting until I got myself a beast, a pony." David Marriott
