EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a numbat foraging in its natural habitat. The numbat, also known as the Banded Anteater, is an insectivorous marsupial that relies on termites as its primary source of sustenance. However, this mesmerizing creature faces a grave threat to its existence, with fewer than 1000 numbats remaining in the wild. In this image by Lea Scaddan from Australian Views, we witness the numbat engrossed in its search for food amidst a backdrop of lush greenery. Its slender body and distinctive banded markings make it instantly recognizable and add to the allure of this photograph. The artist's keen eye has captured not only the beauty but also the vulnerability of this endangered species. As we observe this solitary creature diligently scouring through fallen logs and tree trunks, we are reminded of nature's delicate balance and our responsibility to protect it. Through her lens, Scaddan invites us into a world where every moment counts for these remarkable creatures fighting for survival against mounting odds. This print serves as both a reminder of their dwindling numbers and an urgent call to action. Let us cherish this extraordinary glimpse into the life of one such numbat while there is still time left to appreciate their presence in our world.
