What is the platy-project?

​

The platy-project is an ACF project that PACA are participating in related to sighting and recording platypus throughout the Monash Federal Electorate.

​

By recording where platypuses live we can understand more about this incredible creature, and help prevent further declines in their numbers.

​

That’s where you can help. There are places within the platypus’ range where sightings have never been recorded, or where they haven’t been seen for a long time. These are our biggest gaps in knowledge.

​

You can help researchers fill these gaps by visiting priority areas, looking for platypuses, and uploading your findings to the University of New South Wales’ platypus sighting database.

 

How to RSVP

Please email Craig Panagiris 

​

Other information

Please bring your camera, binoculars, notebook and pen, long pants, sturdy shoes, hat, sunscreen and water

We acknowledge the Bunurong and Gunnai-Kurnai nations and show our respects to the ancestors of Country and the people living today of these tribal nations. We recognise that sovereignty was never ceded and there have been fundamental changes to their culture and will work to restore what we can. We can all honour these ancestors by caring for country and respecting the balance of nature that feeds and protects all living things.
