El antártico salvaje

Australia was the last continent to form, the smallest of the seven. Though it is completely surrounded by water, the center is consumed by vast tracts of parched, infertile land. This is the lowest, flattest, and driest inhabited continent. Its extreme climate and isolation has shaped astounding evolutionary adaptations. This place has created its own rules of nature.

The wetlands and rainforests of Australia are ecosystems that hold links to the continent's ancient past. These places are extremely diverse. Lush green ranges in remote southern isles allow life forms to flourish unhindered. Rainforests create prime real estate for a convergence of species, all battling for territory.

The vegetated areas of the smallest continent are uniquely Australian. It's estimated almost a fifth of Australia is covered in dry forest. The dry forests, colloquially deemed "the bush", is concentrated mostly along the east coast, with small pockets in the southwest and northern extremities of the country. These are the kingdoms of the most common of Australian mammals, marsupials.
