Australia’s leading species discovery program, Bush Blitz, has discovered seven pseudoscorpion species which are believed to be new to science, during an expedition to Wilinggin Country in the West Kimberley region of Western Australia.
Researchers and volunteers have successfully relocated 7 of Australia’s rarest birds as part of a threatened species partnership between the Western Australian and Australian governments, non-government organisations and community volunteers.
A delicate overnight operation recently saw 17 Eastern Bristlebirds successfully translocated from Booderee National Park and Jervis Bay National Park in south-eastern New South Wales to the most southern tip of Australia’s mainland.
I can confirm that I have received an application for a section 9 declaration under the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Heritage Protection Act (ATSIHP Act).
Scientists and Traditional Owners will work together to discover species new to science, helping restore Australia’s biodiversity on the next Bush Blitz expedition to Wilinggin Country, West Kimberley on 18 to 29 July 2022.
