A flagship project for Taronga is the greater #bilby #conservation breeding program at Taronga Western Plains Zoo in #Dubbo, which is a collaboration with multiple partners, including the @NSWDPIE #SavingOurSpecies program. #ScienceWeek 
While the ultimate aim is securing the species in the wild, producing animals fit #ForTheWild and a sanctuary fit to house them in, constitutes a significant amount of the work towards achieving this goal.
To prepare for the #bilby release, introduced predators (#foxes) and herbivores (#rabbits) were detected, removed, and excluded from the 110ha fenced #sanctuary. Detection involved #cameratraps, track plates, and thermal cameras
During the rest of #scienceweek we’ll be highlighting the work of our Taronga scientists, & the many varied #conservation #collaborations they are a part of. Here’s what’s coming your way on Twitter this week. Yeah, it's an 8-day week, but there's just so much #science to cover!
We’re excited to share our impact and reach across our core areas, especially in #conservation science, where our teams take an evidence-based approach #ForTheWild and embed #science into everything we do.
Don’t forget you can also follow some Taronga scientists directly too. We’ll be tagging them all week, but why not follow @Magellanic_22 @HWConflict @PitcherBen @KarrieARose @janeo1000 @Wingtags @alburns1 @joytripovich @DrJDay @WildPhoebe already?
