Funded Activity Summary

Supporting Australia’s conservation agencies to control foxes & feral cats. This project aims to empower land managers to better protect Australia’s native wildlife. Introduced predators (foxes and feral cats) are a key driver of wildlife loss in Australia, and millions of dollars are invested in management annually. The project expects to advance the efficacy of introduced predator management by building robust datasets on predator densities, conducting continental-scale syntheses on predator ecology, developing advanced simulation models to predict the effects and cost of management and monitoring, and making these accessible via free decision-support tools. The project will enhance the capacity of land managers to conduct best-practice management and substantially advance understanding of predator ecology.
