Hundreds of Aussie animals rely on tree hollows for survival, including many #threatenedspecies.

It takes just moments to fell an old hollow-bearing eucalypt, but hundreds of years for hollows to form.

We're running low on #realestate.

Scientists are restoring abandoned carparks for native species!

These urban wildlife “stepping stones” can become homes for small birds, bats and reptiles, as well as pollinating species like bees and butterflies. https://t.co/bgrVMzf6vS

Thank you to The Agile Project for having HSI be part of this incredible macropod relocation effort. We're thrilled to have been able to provide a safe release site and better life for 100 of these agile wallabies that were suffering from urban expansion https://t.co/ICZNVeHRlT

Three resident yellow-tailed black cockatoos at WLT sanctuary Galgalimay.

Males can be recognised by their pink eye-rings, while females have a grey eye-ring and larger yellow cheek-patch!

A reminder to check pouches! 🦘

Stopped to move a DOR (dead on road) Agile Wallaby that was hit by a car and this baby was still in her pouch. Now with wildlife carers, after an initial look over is healthy and unharmed. Slow down for wildlife and check pouches!

A beautiful permanent creek at Wildlife Land Trust sanctuary Tree Haven, a permanently protected property near Byron Bay, NSW.

Creeks like this are vital for native plants and animals, providing aerated, fresh water as well as shade, hunting grounds and nesting sites!

More protections coming for cassowary habitat!
The Lowland tropical rainforest of the Wet Tropics that @hsiaustralia nominated in 2017 has been assessed and accepted for listing as Endangered by Federal Environment Minister @sussanley. 👏

The Wildlife Land Trust strongly supports wildlife-friendly farms!

Preserving habitat on farmlands is not only good for native species – it promotes better soil, cleaner waterways and happier livestock!

It can take >150 years for a tree to form hollows large enough for nesting cockatoos! But with #ClimateChange driving range changes and habitat destruction relentlessly reducing this vital real estate, competition for #HollowsAsHomes is sadly heating up... https://t.co/1tTgy6L0rp

Have some spare time in lockdown? Take an afternoon off to listen to the calls of native owls!

Not the best time to be a Sydneysider with extreme jackhammering renovations going on in the apartment above you! But we have to do what we have to do (and should have already been doing). Grateful I've been lucky enough to get out in nature with wildlife and the team recently 🦘

[Evan Quartermain @EvanQuartermain]

Glad the Department identified "a number of actions for improvement", but what happened in Perup needs a far more substantial response. Rest assured @hsiaustralia's investigation into prescribed burn wildlife impacts will get to the bottom of things #wapol https://t.co/SaWPTVjOiD

A lovely messy patch of woodland in Karrawatta, South Australia.

Leaving rocks and dead branches intact creates microhabitats for fungi and insects, as well as hiding places for birds, lizards and small mammals.
