Field Guide to Northern Territory Fauna 2.0

The Museum & Art Gallery of the Northern Territory's Field Guide app offers an informative resource for exploring the region's diverse wildlife, whether at home or in outdoor settings.

The app features comprehensive descriptions of nearly 600 species, complemented by high-quality images and sound recordings. It provides useful references for identifying animals across various environments, including urban areas, bushlands, and coastal regions. The catalog encompasses a wide array of species—from tropical river and reef inhabitants to desert-dwelling creatures, backyard wildlife, and iconic animals such as birds, fish, mammals, crocodiles, and snakes, as well as smaller organisms like termites.

While extensive, the database represents only a portion of the Northern Territory's rich fauna. Ongoing updates by scientific experts will add new species and refine existing information over time.

This app is part of a series of field guides developed by Australia's leading natural history museums, aimed at supporting wildlife education and conservation efforts across the country.
