Feral cats impact wildlife that are dependent on riparian environments, including: lizards, small gliders, small mammals (e.g. Antechinus, bush rats), frogs and small birds such as Fairy Wrens. They are one of Australia’s most destructive invasive species, killing an estimated: 1.5 billion native mammals, birds, reptiles and frogs each year.
Through the Refreshing Rivers project, landholders in the Riverina Highlands region can can loan up to 4 cat traps to manage these pests along riparian corridors.
