Show Notes
Tasmania, the land of the endangered Tasmanian Devil and the extinct Tasmanian tiger, is one of Australia’s most biodiverse regions. Various species of possums, wallabies, seals, penguins, and platypus roam the island state. Unfortunately, the region’s rich ecosystem is under severe threat from habitat clearance and degradation, amplified by the spread of invasive plants and feral mammals.
The Tasmanian Land Conservancy is at the forefront of conservation in Tasmania, with the vision of transforming Tasmania into a global leader in nature conservation. TLC is working extensively at the grassroots level to protect and expand conservation reserves in the region. In this episode, I interview James Hattam to discuss the projects TLC has undertaken to conserve the region’s precious biodiversity.
