The team was back in the field last week at #TwoThumbsWildlifeSanctuary, building post-fire homes for all creatures great and small.
Working with @HabitatInnov, in a world-first, we installed 20 hot-off-the-press Habitech marsupial dens.

🪺 “With big trees becoming rarer in the landscape, there are simply not enough homes to go around, and nest boxes are an effective way to increase nesting habitats to arrest population declines."

Nest boxes offer important habitat. New study in #AustralEcology tests the internal climate of artificial nestboxes showing the importance of double-walled interiors when using plastic nestboxes. @Mick_Callan

Excited to let everyone know that my first lead author paper has been published in @AustralEcology. Massive thanks to @D0CT0R_Dave

Research has found that greater fire severity decreases the abundance of greater gliders which is why we are working with @HabitatInnov to install nest boxes to give these animals a ready-to-move-in home after bushfires destroyed their natural hollows in trees
Mostly I love living regionally but having no gas - maybe for weeks - and putrid internet makes me think that city life wouldn't be so bad 🤔

#GERConnect22 sponsors @HabitatInnov and their revolutionary modular nest boxes. Loved hearing from Mick & Carl about doing things differently and how the nest boxes provide critical habitat for our precious wildlife.

This #Habitech modular nest box was installed on a Sunday, had gliders in it just 2 days later, and after a short 4 days they were furnishing it with eucalypt leaves. You can get your own #Habitech habitat solution here: habitatinnovation.com.au/

We are so excited to have joined the awesome team at @HabitatInnov at Two Thumbs Wildlife Trust (tag) for a site assessment and installation of #Habitech nest boxes for gliders and endangered gang-gang cockatoos.
