Best Answer

Yes. The bilby is a type of bandicoot, so all members of the bandicoot family are related to the bilby. The bilby is sometimes even called the "rabbit-eared bandicoot" because of its long ears.

Did humans have to do something with the extinction of the lesser bilby?

Given that the lesser bilby only became extinct after European settlement of Australia, it can be assumed that humans certainly had something to do with its extinction. Expanding human settlement and subsequent land-clearing for agricultural purposes led to the extinction of this animal. The introduction of non-native animals also led to its extinction. Foxes preyed upon this helpless animal, while rabbits destroyed any remaining lesser bilby habitat.

What animal do australian use at Easter time?

Generally speaking, Australians have the same as all the other Commonwealth countries, a bunny rabbit with easter eggs. In recent years, however, the Bilby has been put forward as a new Easter symbol in Australia. The Bilby is a native Australian animal that has become endangered. It is a small nocturnal omnivorous marsupial with a long nose and tail and rabbit-like ears. The Easter Bilby is becoming more common on our supermarket shelves alongside the traditional rabbit and most manufacturers donate some of the proceeds from Bilby sales to saving the Bilby.
