Dear supporters,
Most of this season completely ruled out with having on ground participation by our generous volunteers in the field. So we decided to take the outdoor conservation experience into homes around the world by using citizen science. We installed 5 infrared wi-fi monitoring cameras to help count our eastern barred bandicoots and all other wildlife native or pest. This was linked to the museum of Australia and living atlas of Australia to record all the sightings. This technique encourages the general public to investigate and help threatened species recovery from there lounge rooms. The data collected and recorded is used to build up information on how our native and threatened species are tracking. When the lockdowns started to happen our volunteers kept asking when can we help again, how can we help. They are a dedicated and persistent great part of our community. So we took it to them!
Keep safe and well,
Travis
