Diurnal activity budget of the kultarr (Antechinomys laniger) in captivity
Abstract
The kultarr (Antechinomys laniger) is a small carnivorous marsupial native to arid and semi-arid regions of mainland Australia. This study assessed historical video data to develop an activity budget for a captive kultarr population. The study had very limited diurnal footage and found that kultarrs spent the most time displaying movement, foraging and stationary alert. The study has contributed to our understanding of kultarr behaviour in captivity, however more research is needed that encompasses a larger data set to fully understand kultarr activity.
