The remote and drier inland areas of Australia are commonly referred to as the "Outback." This vast region is characterized by its arid landscapes, sparse population, and unique wildlife. The Outback encompasses various ecosystems and is known for its extreme temperatures and rugged terrain. It plays a significant role in Australia's cultural identity and heritage.
The city located further inland can be significantly drier, the city along the coast can have more stable temperatures. Coastal regions tend to be more stable.
Yes. The Bell Miner is the bird most often called 'Bellbird' in Australia. It occurs along the south-eastern coastal areas. There is another bird that is also called bellbird - the Crested Bellbird - which is also native to Australia but comes in the drier inland areas.
Only Antarctica is the drier continent than Australia. But Australia is the driest inhabited place.
Northwestern Mexico and inland northern areas are drier than the rest of the country. It is hot in the summer and north winds can make inland northern Mexico chilly in winter, with temperatures sometimes approaching freezing. Inland at higher elevations, the climate is also dry and temperate, and the mountain peaks are often capped with snow.
Koalas can be found in a range of different climates, as they can live wherever their favoured eucalyptus species live. They most commonly inhabit warm temperate zones. They are known to inhabit cooler areas of southern Australia, including sub-alpine regions, and extend north up the Queensland coast (sub-tropical, but not rainforests) and inland where the weather is hotter and drier. They are not found in alpine areas.
The kangaroo paw is native to parts of Western Australia, where the climate is drier than in the east, with plenty of grassland and semi-arid areas.

Australia has very mild winters in most areas where emus are found, so the emu lives exactly where it does during summer. The only difference is that emus may move to where the rains are falling. Many areas of Australia experience drier winters than summers.
Koalas can be found in a range of climatic conditions, as long as they have their food requirements met. They are known to inhabit cooler areas of southern Australia, including sub-alpine regions, and extend north up the Queensland coast (sub-tropical, but not rainforests) and inland where the weather is hotter and drier. They are found right along the eastern coast down to Victoria, and in pockets of eastern South Australia, where summer temperatures can exceed 40 degrees and winter temperatures drop to almost zero. They are not found in alpine areas.
