Koala Spotting Workshop at Duns Creek

9 March 2024 @ 8:45 am - 1:00 pm
Koala Spotting Workshop

Saturday 09 March 2024

8.45am-1pm Lunch provided

Meet at Hinton and Wallalong Pony Club, Green Wattle Creek Road, Duns Creek

Learn techniques you can use on your property to detect koala activity and record on the I-spy app, including how to identify koala preferred Eucalypt species in this area.

Find out about the NSW Koala Strategy, options available for private land conservation through the BCT and ways to improve habitat.

Koalas can be tricky to locate and in some cases, landholders have lived on a property for decades and not realised koala were present. With over sixty percent of koala habitat in NSW being on private land, it is such an important resource for koalas that needs conserving.

The day will be hosted by Hunter Region Landcare, NSW Dept of Planning and Environment and the Biodiversity Conservation Trust.

Please bring water bottle and wear long sleeves, long pants, closed shoes, hat or rainwear according to weather.
