25.01.2022 Breaking news: 64,000 female green turtles were spotted in the waters surrounding Raine Island in Explore Tropical North Queensland, setting a record as the wor...ld’s largest green turtle gathering ever documented The turtles were filmed during the December 2019 nesting season as they made their way ashore to lay their eggs on this turtle nesting hotspot in Visit Queensland, Australia's Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. The footage was captured as part of the Raine Island Recovery Project which is restoring the world's largest green turtle nesting area for future generations.

19.01.2022 When you've been in quarantine for two weeks and finally get the all clear to rejoin the outside world. Oooor, you know it's FRIDAY! Check out this bouncy lit...tle woylie who was released back into the wild after a recent survey. The Australian Wildlife Conservancy says numbers of woylies (brush-tailed bettongs) are increasing in the large feral predator-free area at the Mount Gibson Wildlife Sanctuary, on the northern edge of WA's Wheatbelt region. The native marsupials are spreading across the area following several reintroductions since 2015 and ecologists have some sound advice for interns helping them release the animals. "Woylies have a habit of launching out like little rockets... aim them at a clear spot and keep your face out of the way! Australian Wildlife Conservancy intern Emily Drummond releases a Woylie post-survey. Video: Carly Moir / AWC.

16.01.2022 A very lucky local came across this very vocal Albert’s Lyrebird on his morning walk. The unusual call is usually a warning call and is made when a bird is disturbed. A younger bird was seen close by. Both birds scurried away after about 3 minutes.Thank you,Graham, for the footage.

15.01.2022 In one corner of Sussex, a couple took a leap of faith 20 years ago, and handed 3,500 acres of their farmland estate to nature. By rather unorthodox means, they looked to our ancient past for inspiration. This is what happened next #Springwatch

08.01.2022 "IS IT A FAIRY?" That was the question from some young campers who found this Children's Stick Insect recently. These insects can grow up to 14cm in len...gth and are found on the Eastern coasts of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. This one is a female but they can also be cream, light pink or purple while males are reddish brown.

04.01.2022 With long, pink ears and silky grey fur, the Greater #Bilby is one of Queensland's best-known mammals. These critters are known as important ‘ecosystem enginee...rs’ - many other species reap the rewards of its hard work. When bilbies aren't living in their complex burrows, which can be up to three metres long and two metres deep, other animals like insects, reptiles, birds and small mammals take up residence. The burrows provide vital shelter from predators and high summer temperatures. But sadly, our iconic bilbies are #endangered in #Queensland. Back in 2013/2014 our Queensland National Parks team responded to a sharp decline in the bilby populations caused by an increase in predation by feral cats at Astrebla Downs National Park. Following a concentrated effort from the Rangers over two years the feral cat population reduced significantly, and we saw a subsequent increase in the bilby population. In 2015 an aerial study was conducted which indicated (from the air) that the bilby population was doing better. The aerial studies aim to get a ‘snapshot’ of bilby activity based on a methodology developed around 25 years ago by Peter McRae. Bilby burrows can be seen from the air and observers count and map burrow density that is then compiled to create this snapshot. Following the aerial survey, Rangers conducted ground-based surveys to ensure burrows seen from the air are active burrows. By doing the survey for five consecutive years, our aim is to build confidence that what we are seeing from the air is a reflection of ground activity and, over time, we can use the aerial survey as a ‘health check’ for bilby activity to help make decisions on where we need to focus our efforts. Looking ahead, we will continue with predator control on park, work with our partners and keep up the monitoring program in order to make good land management decisions for the conservation of bilbies and other small mammals. #qldenvironment | #threatenedspecies

02.01.2022 Did you know that there are hundreds of dormant volcanoes smattered across Victoria’s Western District? Many might be mere bumps on the horizon, but given the... variety of the 400-plus volcanoes here, there are few other landscapes like it in the world. These are baby volcanoes so they’re not really considered big and fancy. Read more: https://bit.ly/36BqUXi Don Fuchs
