Red foxes do eat northern quolls
Northern quolls are carnivorous and do not eat plants and vegetation. Lantana is, however, an invasive species that kills off native grasses and vegetation from which naive mammals and birds feed, hence reducing the number of animals for the Northern quoll to prey upon.
Northern quolls live in rocky areas and eucalyptus bushland from southeast Queensland right along the northern coast to northwestern Western Australia.
Echidnas are mostly nocturnal, though in the southern areas of Australia they can be seen during the day as well. They are nocturnal in northern areas to avoid the heat.
