Details
Did you know that the introduced Indian Myna species poses a threat to native animals and biodiversity?
Do you want to know more about how you can help to control and manage the species in Knox?
This session will provide information on how Knox City Council’s Indian Myna Control Program works, why Indian Mynas are a problem and what you can do to deter them from visiting your garden.
Keynote speaker: Peter Wiltshire – Ranger in Charge at the Darebin Parklands, discovered Indian Mynas were the cause of the decrease in the local Eastern Rosella population. Peter has led the use of video cameras to research Myna behaviour, which has established evidence of the impact of this feral species. He has also worked with local Councils and communities to create a successful management and trapping program. Eastern Rosellas have now returned to the Darebin Parklands.
