Abstract:

Almost half of the world's mammal extinctions in the last two hundred years have occurred in Australia (Short and Smith 1994). The western barred bandicoot Perameles bougainville is one of a suite of species that is currently threatened with extinction, surviving only on two islands in Shark Bay, Western Australia. Reintroduction has been used as a tool in conservation biology to assist in the recovery of threatened species, such as the western barred bandicoot. The aims of this project were to 1) successfully reintroduce and establish a free-ranging mainland population of the western barre

This thesis investigates the process of habitat fragmentation and the spatial and temporal scales at which it occurs. Fragmentation has become an important topic in biogeography and conservation biology because of the impacts it has upon species??? distributions and biodiversity. Various definitions of fragmentation are available but in this research it is considered to be the disruption of continuity, either natural or human-induced in its origins and operative at multiple spatial scales.

Abstract:

One of the few commonly occuring species of digging marsupial in south-western Australia is the subspecies of southern brown bandicoot (Isoodon obesulus fusciventor). Unlike a large proportion of Australian digging marsupials that have suffered attrition, bandicoots have persisted and shown resilience to human-mediated disturbance in peri-urban regions. This thesis evaluates some of the ecological roles of bandicoots in ecosystem processes in degraded Eucalyptus gomphocephala woodland in Yalgorup National Park.

Abstract:

Roads are primary agents of habitat fragmentation and transform landscapes on a global scale. Roads remove habitat and create barriers or filters to the movement of many wildlife species. Moreover, roads disrupt population processes by breaking up continuous populations into smaller, isolated subpopulations or metapopulations, which can suffer genetic drift and become more vulnerable to stochastic processes. Consequently, understanding and mitigating the impact of roads on wildlife has attracted increasing international interest in recent decades. Foremost in efforts to re-connect wildlife pop

An increasing number of endangered species have reached the threshold prompting management decisions to commence captive breeding and reintroduction. Such intervention is costly and requires a substantial investment of resources that might otherwise be spent on alternate conservation options. It is important, therefore, that such measures make use of all available information to ensure the success of the reintroduction effort, not just in the short-term but also well into the future.

Abstract:

Molecular methods have recently revealed novel organisms inhabiting native Australian ticks, some of which are potentially pathogenic due to their similarity to causes of known tick-borne diseases (TBDs) worldwide. Australian bandicoots (Order: Peramelemorphia) are hosts of ticks that are known to bite humans. The persistence of bandicoots in urban and peri-urban areas results in increased exposure of humans to bandicoot ticks, and the bacterial diversity of ticks parasitising bandicoots is therefore of public health interest and requires further investigation.

Abstract:

Evolution through natural selection enables species to adapt to their surroundings and optimise themselves for reproduction and survival. Sexual selection, on the other hand, reflects modifications to improve reproductive fitness of individuals within species. Animal morphology, therefore, often represents a compromise between these two selective pressures. Bandicoots and bilbies (Marsupialia; Peramelemorphia) are small to medium sized omnivorous marsupials, of which roughly 30 species inhabit varied habitats throughout Australia and Papua New Guinea.

Abstract:

Hearing is an important factor allowing species to obtain information about their environment. Variation in tympanic bullae and external pinnae morphology has been linked with hearing sensitivity and sound localisation in different mammals. Bandicoots and bilbies (Order Peramelemorphia) typically occupy omnivorous niches across a range of habitats from open, arid deserts to dense, tropical forests in Australia and New Guinea. The morphology of tympanic bullae and pinnae varies between peramelemorphian taxa. Little is known about the relationship between these structures, or the extent to which

Responses of native Australian species to the faecal odour of two predators; the native tiger quoll Dasyurus maculatus and the introduced red fox Vulpes vulpes, were evaluated through live-trapping and focussed behavioural studies of captive anim
