From June to September, Southern Right Whales and their calves take up residence at Logans Beach near Warrnambool. Emus are abundant at Tower Hill and the Grampians. The Grampians National Park is also particularly important for its abundance of bird species and over 40 species of mammal have been recorded in the park. They include kangaroos, wallabies, possums, gliders, echidnas and koalas.
