Everybody needs good neighbours! We GPS-tracked @MulligansFlat-born eastern quolls and those reintroduced from @tasmania, and found their movement, habitat use, and interactions were markedly different! Can this help us design future reinforcements? 🤔 doi.org/10.1007/s10531-024-0…

Bird nerd & visiting PhD student @shobird gave a fascinating talk at WildCRU today on #reintroduction of Bush Stone-curlews in parts of S. Australia where the #birds’ populations have plummeted. From site selection to behaviour studies, head-starting, use of detector dogs & more.

It took 5 years, 46 released eastern quolls, hundreds of their pups, 6 months of radiotracking, countless fieldwork fails, 5 manuscripts, and 1 finished thesis to finally don the gown and bonnet! 🎓 Thank you so much to everyone who helped get me here 💙 – at Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

Could making foxes vomit be the key to protecting native wildlife? These scientists hope so abc.net.au/news/rural/2023-0… via @ABCaustralia

Could making predators puke be the key to saving Australia's wildlife?

Foxes kill an astonishing 367 million mammals in Australia each year, but a study showing foxes can learn to associate prey with vomit is good news for vulnerable native species.
