About
‘Bandicoots and the great truffle heist’
Bandicoots usually forage for grubs, roots or fungi. However, the little diggers have developed a taste for expensive French black truffles, costing farmers up to $20k a year. Annabel, a PhD student at the University of Sydney, uses marsupial friendly strategies to discourage their gourmet tastes.
