Bilbies are not known for their swimming abilities, as they are primarily terrestrial animals adapted to life in arid environments. While they may be able to paddle or float in water, they generally avoid it and are not strong swimmers. Their physical adaptations, such as long ears and strong hind legs, are more suited for digging and running rather than swimming. Overall, bilbies prefer to stay on land.
