Did You Know These AUSSIE MARSUPIALS Can GLOW IN THE DARK?!
Ever wondered what it would be like if mammals glowed like amphibians and arachnids? Well, new research has shown that some Australian marsupials are bioluminescent!
The glowing list is constantly growing too, as scientists discover new species that go luminous under UV light. No news yet on the importance of this evolutionary characteristic, but studies are being carried out!
We’re super excited by how amazing our fauna is and we can’t wait to learn more. What other marsupials do you think can glow?
