Burnett Koala Program

The data gathered by citizen scientists will inform the protection and enhancement of crucial koala habitats, population diversity and recovery efforts in addition to scaffolding on previous state data collection efforts in other regions and value adding to the ground truthing of current population estimates for the Burnett catchment.

With more accurate population data - local government, communities and individual land managers can more effectively plan and manage habitat corridors, connectivity and re-vegetation efforts, that are significant contributors to the protection and recovery of this and other species facing similar challenges.

由公民科学家（citizen scientists）采集的数据，将为关键考拉栖息地的保护与优化、种群多样性维持及恢复工作提供决策依据；同时还将支撑其他地区此前的州级数据采集工作，并为伯内特流域（Burnett catchment）当前种群数量估算的实地验证（ground truthing）提供价值增值。

依托更为精准的种群数据，地方政府、社区及个体土地管理者能够更高效地规划与管理栖息地廊道、生态连通性及植被恢复项目，而此类举措正是保护考拉及其他面临同类生存挑战物种的核心支撑手段。
