HELPING THE SURVIVAL
OF THE TASMANIAN DEVIL
Virtual fencing made its Australian debut in Tasmania where the technology is utilised to help protect the vulnerable Tasmanian devil. Firstly we identified hotspots where healthy Tasmanian devils were being killed by vehicles. WSS set up the first test site in a disease free area and has seen a 50% reduction in road kill events across the common species recorded.
