Counting Koalas & Comparing Insects

Erin Walser is a young member of the club. As part of her Diploma of Conservation and Ecosystem Management course, at Gippsland TAFE, Erin analysed koala data collected over many years by the Friends of Morwell National Park. She will speak about this project and what the results tell us about koala numbers in the park. Erin has volunteered with the Southern Ash Wildlife Shelter for almost ten years now, and this association inspired her to select koalas as the subject of her research project.

Emily Crick is also a young member of the club. Emily is studying for a Bachelor of Science at Federation University, majoring in Ecology and Microbiology. She compared insect species found in Edward Hunter Reserve with the species found in her treeless, grass-only backyard in Moe. Emily will speak about her survey and the data collected, and the differences and similarities she found.

7.30 pm at Moe Library meeting room or at your home using Zoom. Contact club for more information.
