Bilbies, like many native Australian marsupials, are relatively defenceless creatures.
They are nocturnal, meaning they do most of their hunting for food at night, thereby staying hidden in the shadows of low-growing shrubs.
In addition, the bilby has sharp claws, although these are not for defence. These claws allow for burrowing deep into the arid earth which pawed animals and predators would have difficulty penetrating. There are five front digits on each foot, with the central three being longer than the outside ones.
