Management of overabundant native species is challenging at the best of times but is even
more so when it involves an iconic species that is threatened in part of its range. Here, we …

The capture of free-ranging individuals is often needed for research, population
management and health assessment. Because of its iconic and threatened species status …

Conserving habitats crucial for threatened koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) populations
requires rating habitat quality from a fine spatial scale to patches, landscapes and then …

Lowland Leadbeater's possums are on a trajectory to extinction, with fewer than 40
individuals surviving in the wild. Quantification of the vegetation characteristics of their …

Context The behavioural response of animals to edges between habitat patches and the
matrix can influence population dynamics and species persistence in fragmented …

Koalas are generally considered to be a solitary species. However, during observations of
free-ranging koalas in a high-density population, sub-adult males (3.5–5.5 years) were seen …

Forests are becoming increasingly fragmented, primarily because of their conversion to
production landscapes. Animals occupying modified landscapes may need to expand their …

There is no doubt that a substantial number of ants (Formicidae: Hymenoptera) live
exclusively in the soil. As with most other invertebrate groups, subterranean ant species are …

Koalas are one of the most globally recognized conservation species. With populations
rapidly declining in core forest habitats in northern New South Wales, pressure has mounted …

Abstract Context The koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) sometimes occurs as an overabundant
folivore in south-eastern Australia, where high-density populations have caused defoliation …
