The marsupial mole suffered a population crash about 70,000 years ago, likely due to climate change, highlighting the fragility of ecosystems in extreme environments.
It’s endangered, so you’re not allowed to go looking for it. It’s extremely rare. How are you going to find this thing? It doesn’t have permanent tunnels.
Clark emphasizes the adaptation benefits of a subterranean lifestyle, noting that while it offers protection from predators, it also subjects moles to darkness and oxygen-poor air.
Marsupial moles, although they share physical traits with other moles, evolved independently, demonstrating unique adaptations to their isolated desert environment in Australia.
