Restoring fire-impacted and fragmented Grampians landscapes

This project will help with sallow wattle control, which germinates en-mass post bush fire, reducing native floristic diversity of federal and state listed flora and vegetation communities. This project will help contain the current infestation by treating satellite populations and undertaking targeted control to protect threatened species. Participants will also construct, install and undertake preliminary monitoring of nest boxes for threatened arboreal mammals (Squirrel Gliders and Brush-tailed Phascogales) recently detected in new locations. Preliminary work will allow recreational access along an historic rail alignment.
