...Robert Close; Steven Ward; David Phalen ABSTRACT The great public appeal of the Koala Phascolarctos cinereus gives it political power. Its appeal has been used successfully to publicise its vulnerability to the clearing of its habitat. The result is that the protected bushland also preserves...

...Eva Gonzales; Robert Close The Little Red Flying-fox Pteropus scapulatus is the most widely distributed flying-fox in Australia yet is the least studied. An injured female was taken in captivity and gave birth to a male. Careful notes were taken of the development of the young and its relationship...

... and biotic factors in shaping carcass utilisation by dingoes and further determined whether dingo scavenging influenced carcass persistence in the landscape. To do so, we monitored visitation and scavenging by dingoes using remote cameras positioned on 119 kangaroo carcasses in open and closed canopy...

... pellets. We recorded more pellets: (1) in 30 and 80 year old forest that remained unburned in fires that occurred in 2009, (2) on sites within closed National Parks relative to sites in State Forest, and (3) close to streams. introduced herbivore Mountain ash forest faecal pellet index Modelling...

... to collaborate closely with industrial designers, and I also make the case for species- and context-specific design and development for new artificial habitat projects. I end with a brief review of design and monitoring and evaluation principles for artificial habitat projects. I aim to encourage a broader...

... Guinea (PNG) faces some unique challenges for zoonotic spillover disease events and transmission of AMR between animals and humans. These challenges arise from the erosion of wildlife habitats due to deforestation and close contact of wildlife with villagers and their village-based livestock raised under...

..., and adults may have young from two breeding seasons accompanying them. The breeding biology of Red-tailed Cockatoos is compared with that of closely related species from the genera Calyptorhynchus and Zanda. Threats to the species are loss of mature hollow-bearing trees and almost complete dependence...

... was either observed or inferred (but see Moseby et al. 2012), making each a valuable datapoint. Here, we present a short description of a young adult female Red Fox presumed to have been killed by Dingo in Myall Lakes National Park on the basis of: (1) the close proximity of a Dingo pack (within...

... around the edge of the lakes were surveyed at night for 30 minutes each. The first two survey sessions were conducted when the lakes were closed to the sea and their water levels relatively high. The next two survey sessions were conducted when Meroo Lake was open to the sea and the final one when...

... regarding its taxonomy and evolution. The species Devriesetettix dorreus Tumbrinck, 2014a is found to be a probable close relative of T. reliqua but their evolutionary history remains a mystery. Both species do not possess the morphology that would allow them to be classified under Cladonotinae but without...
