Numbats sightings in Australia.
Mar 8, 2023
Australia is known for its diverse wildlife, and one of its unique species is the Numbat. Unfortunately, the Numbat population has been declining.
with this visualization, I wanted to show the diminishing population of Numbats in Australia.
Numbats were once found in various parts of Australia, as shown in the first map. However, the second map reveals a significant decline in sightings. The third map is even more alarming, with Numbats only surviving in small patches in Western Australia.
