⚠️ Fake webs are dangerous to your local wildlife- bats included! Leave the webbing to our spider friends and celebrate spooky season with eco-friendly decorations instead. 👻

An encounter with barbed wire has left this Black Flying-fox with some nasty injuries. Barbed wire is particularly hazardous to nocturnal wildlife as the strands are invisible at night. In the meantime, she is settling into her new environment, receiving antibiotics & pain relief

The overall message is that, if conservationists continue down the path of conceptualising the world as in mainstream economics they will be forced from one compromise to another, ultimately losing their ability to conserve or protect anything. #endlogging

Final day of a three-week appeal in Tasmanian Civil & Administrative Tribunal against a disastrous proposed project on Robbins Island. Leave one of the last disease-free populations of Tas Devils free from harm. We need your help to fund this vital stand. https://t.co/dDDRLceo0p

📰🔊 Detrimental effects of #banding on 🦇

@lou_lobato et al. combined 1⃣2⃣ years of 🦇banding data from NE 🇪🇸 with the impact on a captive colony of #Carollia #perspicillata to assess the impact of 🦇forearm banding

@HobartPlatypus @CanonAustralia Fantastic - congrats!

All Saints is not only one of our flagship success stories and a wonderful example of bats and church communities co-existing harmoniously, it's also the inspiration behind our illustrated children's book The Little Church Bat.
