18- Name: Pig-Footed Bandicoot Scientific Name: Chaeropus ecaudatus
The big-footed Bandicoot was one of the strangest of all marsupials. Its hind feet had one hoof-like toe, while its front feet were like pigs trotters. Once widespread in inland Australia, by 1901 had disappeared. The introduction of sheep, cattles, foxes and cats probably caused its extinction. |
