Invasive Animals CRC

The Invasive Animals Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) is Australia’s largest integrated invasive animal research program. The Invasive Animals CRC creates new technologies and integrated strategies to reduce the impact of invasive animals on Australia’s economy, environment, and people. They concentrate on developing smarter tools to prevent and detect new invasions, advanced and tactical tools to strengthen integrated management strategies of carp and other pest fish, and new tools and integrated management strategies for major pests including foxes, wild dogs, feral pigs, rats and mice, cane toads, feral cats and rabbits.

Australian Wildlife Conservancy

The Australian Wildlife Conservancy (AWC) was established more than 10 years ago because Australia has the worst mammal extinction rate in the world and a very high proportion of our surviving animals and plants (over 1,700 species) are listed as threatened with extinction. ‘Business as usual’ for conservation in Australia will mean additional extinctions. AWC is therefore developing and implementing a new model for conservation to reverse the decline in Australian wildlife. Their strategy is simple:
• Establish sanctuaries by acquiring land and through partnerships with landholders
• Implement practical land management—feral animal control and fire management—informed by good science.

They are not-for-profit, non-controversial, apolitical and independent.
