Venus Bay Conservation Park and Brush-tailed Bettong Release and Monitoring Survey

This survey constitutes part of the Ecological Restoration of Eyre Peninsula program and Ark on Eyre. Monitoring was conducted each spring from 1992 to 1999, although not all traplines were opened during the 1997 and 98 seasons. Pest foxes, cats and rabbits were eradicated by traps, baits and shooting ready for re-introduction of Bettongs. The response of integrated vermin control of rabbits foxes and cats was monitored. The first trial re-introduction of six male Brush-tailed Bettongs into Venus Bay Conservation Park (VBCP) was conducted in April 1994. The bettongs were radio-collared and tracked over several months to monitor their behaviour and survival. Following the success of the release, four subsequent releases occurred between September 1994 and January 1995. A total of 61 animals (22 males and 39 females) were released during this time, taking the total number of released individuals to 67. From December 2004 to October 2005 Spotlight surveys along transects were conducted every two-three months to monitor the bettong population. Vegetation photopoints were also set-up and monitored between 1992 to 1995 in the Venus Bay Conservation Park. The Venus Bay Conservation Park and Brush-tailed Bettong Release and Monitoring Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.
