Grant Activity:
Managing the risk of disease – Eastern Bristlebird translocation
Purpose:
The Eastern Bristlebird, restricted to three isolated populations, is highly vulnerable to local extirpation due to catastrophic events such as bushfires or disease. To address this threat, DELWP aims to establish a new genetically viable population in Victoria. The project will implement a disease risk analysis to identify potential health risks associated with Bristlebird translocation, developing effective mitigation steps to reduce risk. Health assessments of all birds by veterinarians (at source and destination) will ensure only healthy individuals are translocated, providing a unique opportunity to understand the health of wild Eastern Bristlebird populations, and ensure the long–term sustainability of this new population.
