Event description

This event will be fox focused but we will also provide information on the management of feral cats, rabbits and deer.

Aaron Stephens from Bass Coast Landcare Network will speak on all control methods and how an intergraded control strategy can provide the best results.

Dr Alex Maisley will be discussing lyrebird behaviour and vulnerabilities to introduced predators, positive impacts of fox control on lyrebird populations and impacts of feral deer on lyrebird habitat.

Attendees will have the opportunity to borrow SGLN camera traps to use to monitor pest control or see what other native species they have on their property.

Our Goals & Objectives

To support and facilitate on-ground action across SGLN and its Landcare groups.
To facilitate communication and cooperation within and between groups and grow membership.

To ensure SGLN demonstrates best practice governance and supports our groups to do the same.

Who are we

Our network is made up of 16 local groups working to preserve and protect the natural environment, while also enhancing the long-term sustainability of farming in this part of Victoria.

Our members are primary producers, hobby farmers, tree changers, backyard gardeners and environmentalists of all sorts – a diverse group that finds common ground in caring for the land and building community
