Look who’s out looking for something to eat! Meet the yoorna, our south-west bobtail 🦎
A few fun facts about these lovely locals:
🔹 That stumpy tail looks stores fat for leaner times.
🔹 They’re loyal. Pairs often reunite every spring, some for 20+ years.
🔹 They give birth to live young, usually 1 to 3 big babies in late summer.
🔹 They love a snail, so they’re welcome garden helpers.
🔹 The blue tongue and hiss are all bluff. They’re harmless.
Spring is mating season, so keep an eye out for them during your stay. We have 6 regular resident yoorna at SurfPoint Resort.
If you’re driving around Margaret River, please slow down and give them right of way 💙
