The Underground Town 🕳️

What happens

In Coober Pedy, Australia, the whole town lives underground to stay cool, with front doors right in the hills! White opal-mine heaps dot the red plain, a row of emus chases the ball, a wedge-tailed eagle soars overhead and a spiky (but cute) thorny devil nods hello.

Fun facts

• Thorny devils drink water by soaking it up through grooves in their skin.
• People in Coober Pedy live underground to stay cool in the desert heat.
• Emus can run as fast as a car in town.
