Poochera is a charming grain belt town on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, approximately 60 km northwest of Streaky Bay. Established in 1920, it serves as a strategic grain exchange point for local farmers specializing in cereal crops and sheep. The town is renowned for its rare dinosaur ants, Nothomyrmecia macrops, rediscovered in 1977 after being thought extinct. Visitors can explore the Poochera Museum, which showcases local history and features Pete's Shack, a hut constructed from flattened kerosene tins. The town also offers accommodations at the Poochera Hotel and Caravan Park, providing a welcoming stopover for travelers.
