HiI thought some of you might be interested to know that since we have been successful in reducing fox numbers in Booderee National Park: we are finding Eastern Bristlebirds in all sorts of habitats (including stands of mature bitou bush!), Hooded Plover numbers appear to be increasing, with signs of successful breeding, and Pied Oystercatchers may be increasing. There are also lots more terrestrial animals. We are fortunate in that the park is on a peninsula with a very narrow neck so recruitment is limited and also in that we have cooperative arrangements with adjacent NSW parks in terms of a joined up approach to fox baiting.
