Murdoch University's Keep Carnaby's Flying - Ngoolarks Forever project is science-informed and community-powered. The aim for the project is to continue to engage the community to 'keep Carnaby's flying' and safeguard their future, by giving the birds more food trees, water and habitat in Perth and beyond. These intelligent, social, long-lived birds exist only in southwest Western Australia. The project aligns with Lotterywest's priority of Protected Sustainable Ecosystems, helping Perth become a viable ecosystem to protect and sustain Ngoolarks.
Thanks to you playing Lotto, a $1,541,210 Lotterywest grant is supporting project activities over three years, to empower community volunteers in the conservation of Carnaby’s Cockatoos through evidence-based revegetation and rehabilitation efforts.
