Grant Activity:
Long-nosed Potoroo fauna survey and genetic analysis
Purpose:
Surveys for the long-nosed potoroo will be conducted across nine wildfire-affected rainforest areas based on pre-fire potoroo records. The surveys will use 30 40 widely spaced camera traps per location. Cameras will be deployed at each site for at least 21 days in two periods. Forest sites burnt and unburnt in 2019/20 will be contrasted. The sites where potoroos are repeatedly detected will be live-trapped to collect tissue samples. Samples will be provided to collaborators at the Australian Museum for preliminary analysis of genetic diversity and differentiation among locations. The project will investigate the influence of the fires and whether genetic isolation is occurring.
