The Lungtalanana Cultural Restoration Project
Lungtalanana/Clarke Island is a special place for the palawa/pakana people, the Tasmanian Aboriginal community. The Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre and project partners, like Thylation, University of Tasmania, and WWF-Australia, are committed to the cultural and ecological restoration of the island.

Nyangumarta rangers care for country and continue to develop new strategies for land management. We have found new populations of a threatened species, the Black-footed Rock-wallaby, amongst the scattered rocky outcrops.

Securing a future for Western Ground Parrot, Kyloring
The Western Ground Parrot (Kyloring) is a Critically Endangered bird now only known from the south coast of Western Australia. With an estimated 150 birds left in the wild, this ground dwelling species is highly susceptible to threats such as bush fire and predation by feral cats and foxes.

Thylation Partnership with Arid Recovery
In 2023, Arid Recovery has faced the biggest siege of feral cats on the predator-proof fenced reserve’s 26 year history. Successive seasons of good rainfall have been wonderful for the desert ecosystem and threatened species within the reserve, but they have also spurred eruptions of native rodents and rabbits outside the reserve, that have then fuelled massive increases in feral cats.
Investigating the potential to use FelixersTM to protect night parrots from cats on the Ngururrpa IPA
The Ngururrpa Rangers manage the largest known population of the Endangered night parrot in Australia. Sites where night parrots occur are extremely remote and difficult to survey and manage, with many sites only accessible by helicopter. However the Ngururrpa Rangers have successfully combined their expert knowledge of country, habitats, food and water resources with technology such as satellite imagery, songmeters and cameras to reveal numerous night parrot sites across their Indigenous Protected Area (IPA), and monitor threats such as predators and fire around important habitat.
