Bilbies keep cool in the desert via a number of special features.
They have large ears for thermo regulation. Blood flows quickly into the thin tissue around the Bilby's ears, preventing them from getting too hot during the day and from losing body heat quickly at night.
Bilbies also dig burrows enabling them to keep cool during the heat of the day, but warm on cold nights.
