*What do you know about wildlife in your local area? Share your sightings
and knowledge of NSW wildlife!*
NSW communities are being called on to share their sightings from the past
two years through a new wildlife survey released by the Office of
Environment and Heritage. The survey asks if you have information about a
selection of NSW wildlife: brushtail possums, foxes, platypus, wombats,
koalas, spotted-tailed quolls, echidnas, kangaroo, deer and dingos.
Whether you saw a possum on your way to school, a wombat while out working,
or a koala while on holiday, every sighting contributes to research to help
understand where in NSW these animals are living and how their populations
are faring.
The survey is being funded as part of the $44.7 million NSW Koala Strategy,
that is helping to secure the future of koalas in the wild.
Data from this year’s survey can help identify sites for action under the
NSW Koala Strategy as well as forming part of koala monitoring across the
State. It only takes 10 to 20 minutes to complete and it’s a great
opportunity to help build knowledge about wildlife in your local area.
