I had an enjoyable stay at the Scotia Sanctuary, the only person using
the great facilities.  I think that there were 2 teams of 3 or 4 people
running the captive breeding of small mammals like Bilbies and the
subsequent gradual release from pens to very protected to not so
protected areas.  This sanctuary backs on to the Biosphere group that
includes Gluepot.
  Although probably over manned compared to Gluepot and Calperum and the
fences and gate systems were massive, it was a great experience and
showed what can be done if foxes and cats can be
eliminated/controlled.   Would be great if Kerry P could spend his money
and apply his business sense to the venture.
Cheers  Chris
