  • Feral Cat Management Webinar: Cross-sector Challenges, Successes, Practice and Technology

    Online , Australia

    The Centre for Invasive Species Solutions state that, 'feral cats in Australia eat about 2 billion reptiles, birds, frogs and mammals each year, and over a billion invertebrates.' Among these, mammals are the most commonly eaten of these prey items, for all types of cat (pets and ferals), with more than one billion mammals killed by cats in Australia every year. Current feral cat control effort is preventing further extinctions, helping the recovery of some threatened species, and reducing the likelihood of some currently unthreatened species from becoming threatened. This is all thanks to a variety of actors in the biosecurity field. Join WALN, Gillamii Centre, Bush Heritage Australia, Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, Conservation Australia and Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions as we discuss feral cat control across the sector; from Landcare to National Environmental NGO, to government. This is sure to be a wide ranging and thought-provoking discussion which will touch on challenges, wins, best-practice and how technology will aid human effort in this endeavour. Bring your questions and we look forward to seeing you there! This event is generously supported by the WA Government's State Natural Resource Management Program and the National Landcare Network.

  • Biological Control of Weeds in Tasmania (Boxthorn and Sea Spurge)

    Online , Australia

    Landcare Tasmania, in partnership with CSIRO, invites farmers, Landcare groups, First Nations communities, stakeholders and anyone working to manage invasive weeds to join this online webinar to learn more about the new nationally approved biocontrol solutions for African Boxthorn. Led by CSIRO, this session will provide an accessible overview of the science, safety, and practical application of biocontrol for these major weeds. Participants will learn how the new African Boxthorn rust fungus biocontrol (Puccinia rapipes) will be rolled out across Tasmania between 2026–2027, how it works, and how Tasmanian land managers and community groups can get involved. The webinar will also cover current and past work on Sea Spurge biocontrol to support coastal restoration. Photo credit: CSIRO
