A gorgeous little fat-tailed dunnart from the Moon Plain near Coober Pedy. Despite looking about as barren as possible, there is still an amazingly diverse assemblage of animals out there!

New paper! Are subadult dispersers at high risk of mortality in translocated populations? This was my honours project so I’m glad to get it published in @AustralEcology
@EcolSocAus
It’s open access so check it out!

What happens when a threatened predator is reintroduced to threatened prey species?
Researchers from @UNSW and @AridRecovery have found a number of benefits to reintroducing western quolls, a native predator, into fenced conservation reserves.

Interesting choice of shelter by this female numbat. Nice and squished 🤔
Check out the little numbutt!

Probably one of the cutest little Australian native animals I’ve ever seen. Every time I see these little shark bay bandicoots I love them more and more.
Big thanks to @bilby_jack for having myself and my partner for last week at Secret Rocks

What happens when threatened predator and prey species are reintroduced together? Reintroduced western quolls @AridRecovery demonstrated a dietary preference towards other reintroduced species and native rodents.

So happy to have worked with Nature Foundation to develop a long-term population monitoring plan for the endangered Pygmy bluetongue lizard at the @naturefdnau Tiliqua reserve. Such a brilliant project on a brilliant species!

The Pygmy Copperhead (Austrelaps labialis) is found only MLR and KI in SA, making it the states only endemic snake species. Great to finally get to photograph this local endemic, especially right before I head back into the desert for the summer field season!
