HCEC Habitat Planting Day
11 June 2022 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
The Hunter Community Environment Centre (HCEC) invites you to join us in the field on Saturday June 11 to install nest-boxes and plant food-trees for Squirrel Gliders!
Squirrel glider (Petaurus norfolcensis) populations in the Hunter region are facing immense pressure from habitat fragmentation and loss, as well as competition from the nimbler Sugar Glider and native bees.
This project, funded by the City of Newcastle will support the provision of essential habitat for gliders and resource participants with the knowledge and resources needed to shape more ambitious conservation outcomes for this unique threatened species.
