Megafauna Reconstructions
For over forty-five years since David Joffe’s early training as a preparator at the Queensland Museum, Natureworks has been reconstructing life-size museum standard Megafauna creatures of Australia’s prehistoric past. Australian megafauna typically refers to the large animals that once roamed the continent, many of which became extinct due to environmental changes and human activity. Iconic examples include the Diprotodon, the largest known marsupial and the Megalania, a giant monitor lizard. These species were integral to their ecosystems, and their extinction highlights the profound impacts of habitat changes and ecological shifts. Our Megafauna Catalogue also features many other smaller creatures which have also become extinct.
