The Red-tailed Phascogale in the
agricultural landscape of the southern WA wheatbelt - distribution and
conservation
We are working with the Wagin Woodanilling
Landcare Zone to assess the distribution and status of Red-tailed
Phascogale in an 1800 square kilometre area between Wagin and
Dongolocking. We are particularly targeting areas
of remnant vegetation remaining on farms or otherwise outside the formal
conservation estate. We are hoping
to provide landholders with a greater sense of the value of their remnant
vegetation and to encourage them to improve the management of their
remnants for nature conservation.
Funding is available for fencing and replanting to protect and
enhance key Phascogale habitat on
farms.
Our knowledge of the distribution of
phascogale throughout southern WA is being supplemented by a community
atlas scheme, where community members are being encouraged to report their
sightings. A sightings form is available as
a pdf.
Client: Wagin-Woodanilling Landcare Zone with funding from
South West Catchment Council.
