Line 1: − + − A '''Bilby''' is a small endangered marsupial from [[Australia]]. Bilbies are the size of a small [[cat]] and have long pointed [[ear]]s. Due to the loss of habitat in the coastal areas, the range of Bilbies has been restricted to Australia's inland deserts. There are reputed to be only 600 Bilbies left in the wild.

Central to the campaign has been the production of [[chocolate]] Bilbies to raise funds for awareness campaigns. A chocolate Bilby is intended to replace chocolate Easter bunnies in Australia. [[Rabbit]]s are a pest species introduced into Australia as a prey for [[fox]]es, another pest species. + − + − + − Bilbies were formerly an important [[food]] source for some [[Australian Aborigines]].
