Funded Activity Summary

Protecting prey with chemical camouflage. We develop an entirely new solution to protect rare and endangered wildlife and to improve the survival of rehabilitated and reintroduced animals at risk from alien predation. Our cost-effective approach will improve conservation efforts in Australia and our solution can be used by both large conservation organisations as well as small community groups aiming to protect key wildlife. Our technique can also be exported to solve alien species problems elsewhere in the world. This work strengthens Australia's world renowned expertise for research into alien species and ability to develop novel solutions to alien impacts
