Poochera -это небольшой зерновой пояс , 60 км к северо-западу от Стривки на полуострове Эйр , Южная Австралия .
Городок , который умер в 1917 году . Пушера не проводился до 1920 года, и его название, как полагают, взято из имени Кинг Пуджери, местного аборигена Близлежащий холм также называется Пушера, возможно, вытекает из того же происхождения.
В городе была школа , которая открылась в 1920 году, но закрыл свои двери в 1976 году.
Poochera является центром большой сельскохозяйственной зоны, и сам город является стратегическим пунктом обмена региона зерна для фермеров , которые специализируются на зерновых культурах и овец .
The town is 53 km away from the Gawler Ranges, and is commonly used as a stop off by tourists, who have access to a hotel and caravan park.
Poochera is located on the narrow gauge Eyre Peninsula Railway line. Regular passenger trains ended in 1968.
Poochera, however, is probably best noted for its nearby colonies of dinosaur ant (Nothomyrmecia macrops), a rare, primitive species of ant that has attracted entomologists and evolutionary biologists from around the world.
Apart from the Poochera Hotel and Caravan Park, the town is served by a roadhouse where most general supplies can be purchased.
Poochera is located within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Flinders and the local government area of the District Council of Streaky Bay.[8][7][1]
