Funded Activity Summary

Tackling prey naïveté in Australia's threatened mammals. Most threatened mammal reintroductions fail due to predation from introduced cats and foxes. This project will develop new techniques for improving their predator avoidance behaviour including using natural selection through exposure to real predators, and screening for traits linked to effective predator avoidance.
