About  [Edit]

Mega + Fauna = Big + Animals

What is meant by the Australian megafauna? Does megafauna refer to dinosaurs and other giant reptiles that might have roamed the Australian continent millions of years ago? Was Australia inhabitated by huge animals similar to those found in La Brea, California? Did mammoths roam the Australian bush before the arrival of humans in Australia?

In this activity, you will investigate the animals that make up the Australian megafauna, how and why they are different to large animals found elsewhere in the world and what might have caused their extinction.
