.... 2005; Séchaud et al. 2022). 2021), and feeding ecology (Morton and Martin 1979; McDowell and Medlin 2009). Artificial hollows have been shown to provide alternative nesting resources for a range of Australian black cockatoos (Zanda spp., Calyptorhynchus spp.; Berris and Bath 2020; Saunders et al. 2020...

.... Several studies advocated the use of novel and emerging technologies to achieve better monitoring of fauna, while others proposed mapping of large scale, as well as micro-refuges, to maximise fire resilience, or the use of supplementary resources such as nest boxes and artificial roosts to replace those...

... and the kinds of food resources they require. Although not demonstrated by the data, our impression was that ground-foragers were affected first, with declining numbers and fewer attempts to nest. As habitats continued to become drier, nectar- feeders, herbivores, food nomads, migrants, and canopy- foragers...

.... This is consistent with water- filled hollows being a known valuable resource elsewhere (Gibbons and Lindenmayer 2002), and there being a limited supply of terrestrial water sources on the study area. In woodland habitats, emphasis is placed on the importance of conserving tree hollows as shelter and nesting...

... are in the vicinity could help the WDD focus on nest detection rather than following the turtles trails after nesting. Allocation of Resources Resource allocation during deployments was influenced by the need to prioritise turtle safety whenever the WDD located a turtle. Since the search sites were in popular...

... of drought and potentially reduced recruitment due to nest or juvenile predation (Chessman 2011). The former explanation (drought) is a clear threat to freshwater turtles since the loss of habitat would remove space and food resources and thus lead to isolated pockets of mortality if turtles could not escape...

... of migration or regional scale movements. The proportion of nectar and non-nectar foraging did not differ between years or localities, with half of foraging observations being of nectar-feeding. Yellow-plumed Honeyeaters are sensitive to the effects of drought, with less nesting during dry seasons...

... (Morton and Martin 1979; McDowell and Medlin 2009). Artificial hollows have been shown to provide alternative nesting resources for a range of Australian black cockatoos (Zanda spp., Calyptorhynchus spp.; Berris and Bath 2020; Saunders et al. 2020, 2022), and for Barn Owls (Meaney et al. 2021; Charter...

... that is closely linked to rainforest habitat resources (i.e., suspended nests of rainforest birds). Extreme fire events that burn moist rainforest habitats pose a catastrophic threat to the local occupancy of P. papuensis by reducing available habitat and unburnt refugia. The mobility of P. papuensis allowed...

... to a species persistence in that location. While key functions of habitat include the provision of resources (food, water, mates, nest/roost/den sites), other key functions include the provision of the space and structure within which animals go about their daily lives. 348 AuZstoraolilaongist volume 44 (2...
