Numbat Eater of Termites Celebrated at Sanctuary
The numbat at Healesville Sanctuary delighted visitors with its termite feasts and distinctive courtship chatter. After over two months in residence the marsupial died suddenly in February, possibly from a bite by a venomous spider, with discussion on habitat decline and the need for protected reserves in Australia.

Healesville Kennel Club Parade Sets Country Standard
The Healesville and District Kennel Club held its first open parade during the sports carnival. About 700 spectators saw 150 dogs entered across seven breeds, with seven imported dogs and interstate entries. Notable winners included a Sydney Pekingese judged Best Exhibit, and trophies for Best Open Bitch and Best Dog in Parade. Governor Sir Dallas Brooks attended, praised the event, and ordered two parade catalogues. The display earned the club widespread compliments as a “Miniature Royal Show.”
