Monitoring finds brushtail possums in nest box

Enhancing Wildlife Habitat: A Nest Box Success Story

Nestled within the vibrant landscape of Southeast Queensland lies Sleeman Sports Complex, a hub of athletic prowess and community engagement. Beyond its sporting arenas, this complex is fostering a different kind of activity—one that involves the delicate balance of nurturing native fauna within its precincts.

Ecosure was engaged by Sleeman Sports Complex to install and monitor nest boxes mounted strategically across the premises to provide sanctuary to various native bird and mammal species reliant on natural hollows—a vital component of Australia’s biodiversity.

Protecting Australia’s Unique Flora and Fauna utilising Targeted Ecological Surveys

Australia is known for its unique range of flora and fauna species that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. However, with almost 1000 animal and plant species in New South Wales alone considered threatened, it’s important to take steps to protect them. This is where targeted ecological surveys come in. At Ecosure, we recognise the importance of identifying where threatened species occur on a site and ensure steps are implemented to protect them.

Celebrating 27 years of Ibis management

Celebrating 27 years of Ibis management

The Australian white ibis (Threskiornis molucca) is one of three native species of ibis found in Australia and is protected under the Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992 and New South Wales Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016. Unnaturally large numbers of ibis are now found in many urban environments along the east coast of Australia, primarily because of easy access to abundant food sources such as some waste landfills and public feeding, which can result in public complaints, present an aviation safety hazard and impact negatively on biodiversity. There are also risks to public health and production animals.
