Australia comes alive after sunset! Many of our mammals are nocturnal, meaning they’re most active at night. But not all animals keep the same hours.
Some animals are diurnal (active during the day), like many birds and lizards. Others are nocturnal (active at night), like possums, bats and owls. And then there are crepuscular animals, like wallabies, rabbits and some insects, which are busiest around dawn and dusk.
But what happens when artificial light makes their night-time world too bright? Take the quiz to discover how light can affect wildlife as they feed, travel, hide from predators and find their way.
