Easter Bilby champions the cause of native plants and animals, reclaiming the Australian bush from wild European rabbits. Rabbits must be removed so the original inhabitants can thrive. Bilbies want their burrows, their food, and their friends back.
The Easter Bilby campaign slogan, ‘Bilbies not Bunnies’, is for all the displaced and threatened plants and animals. It is a brave and bold effort that can only succeed with help from humans. Without our intervention to control rabbits, the plight of bilbies and other native species will never improve.
