Best Answer

Bilbies are omnivores and nocturnal feeders. They eat ants, termites, beetles, centipedes and grasshoppers and other insects, larvae, seeds, bulbs, fruit and fungi. Occasionally they may eat small mammals. They use their strong forelegs to dig and search for food, and their long nose to help dig out larvae as well.

The biggest threat to the bilby comes from introduced species such as foxes and feral cats.

Owls and quolls also prey on bilbies.
