One of the first recorded Ampurta in NSW photographed by a Felixer. The cat threatening to hunt it down which was correctly identified by the Felixer as a target. The Wild Deserts team are hoping to soon have permission from OEH to load toxic doses...
Really exciting news from Wild Deserts where a rare Ampurta, one of the first ever recorded in NSW was photographed by a Felixer. The only cat that has recently walked past the Felixer was correctly identified as a target. The Wild Deserts team are hoping...
Great to get up to Glen Helen and demonstrate the Felixer for the local Rangers. Plenty of positive feedback and some great opportunities to put the Felixers to work and help protect the native wildlife in the area from the feral cats.
