Do you know what a tree hollow is?
To you and me, a tree hollow is just a hole, cavity or tunnel in a tree
or branch. But to an animal, that hollow may be a bedroom, hiding place,
nursery or shelter. It is the ultimate tree house!
Come and take a peek inside the amazing world of tree hollows and
discover more than 340 species of incredible Australian animals that
call hollows home. With color photos of glorious gliders, darting
dunnarts, minute microbats and many more, this book is full of fun facts
about animals that use tree hollows as places for resting, nesting or
hiding.
Find out how hollows are created, why they are threatened, and meet
scientists who spend their time hollow-hunting. There are also plenty of
tips on how you can spot hollows yourself, help to protect the
environment and encourage habitat for hollow-dependent animals.
