The Hairy Marron

Unique to the famous Margaret River wine region, there are less than 1000 Hairy Marron remaining - will they end up the same as the dodo? #savethehairymarron

#FeralCats are spread across 99.8 percent of Australia - from our most remote deserts to the Snowy Mountains. That's why, under the Threatened Strategy, we're aiming to establish 10 feral-free enclosures on mainland Australia by 2020. https://t.co/gQeeQxY6b7

This is Australia’s embarrassing secret exposed. Land clearing causes #extinction, soil loss, polluted waterways, #coral death and #globalwarming but has negligible benefits. https://t.co/2fGZhVXwUA

WA’s aquaculture industry got a massive boost today with the opening of the new multi-species mollusc hatchery. 350 WA aquaculture jobs will be created over the next 10 years on the South Coast.

Beverley Van Praagh, pictured here with the worm back in the 1980s, has been studying the giant Gippsland earthworm for 25 years. Said to be the largest earthworm in the world, it's restricted to the south and west of Gippsland, Victoria: https://t.co/KTgkNyqjA9

The Australian Threatened Species Strategy mentions the biggest threat to biodiversity, habitat loss, just twice. Feral cats, on the other hand, are mentioned 78 times https://t.co/58ZVZY0fCh Australian environmental science and policy need better alignment. Thanks @EuanRitchie1
