Brush-tailed Bettong


Most brush-tailed bettongs are active at night. They locate fungi underground using their keen sense of smell, then dig them up with their front claws and eat them with two canines in front like rodents. An abundance of stomach bacteria helps break down and pull nutrients from the fungi.
