Northern hairy-nosed wombat 澳洲毛鼻袋熊
(重定向自Lasiorhinus krefftii)
The northern hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus krefftii) is one of three species of wombats. It is one of the rarest land mammals in the world and is critically endangered. Its historical range extended across New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland as recently as 100 years ago, but it is now restricted to one place, a 3-km range within the 32-km Epping Forest National Park in Queensland. In 2003, the total population consisted of 113 individuals, including only around 30 breeding females. In the last census taken in 2010, the estimated population was 163 individuals, and in recent years, the population has experienced a slow but steady increase.
