Please use the form below to indicate your interest in joining us for fieldwork. Trips are 3-day camping expeditions to various sites in East Gippsland to conduct post-fire wildlife monitoring fieldwork. On expeditions, you'll help with a range of wildlife monitoring techniques including the use of motion-sensing cameras, audio recorders (for birds, bats and frogs), scat surveys, and spotlighting surveys.
Exact locations for this trip could change as we are trying to respond to current conservation priorities, and working with community experts & external scientists who require some flexibility. Dates are also subject to change, if weather conditions lead to an unsafe working environment.
Each volunteer (including those who will be sharing a vehicle) will need to fill the below form. Please indicate if you will be travelling together in the comments section.
All NatureWatch events are subject to current VNPA COVID-19 guidelines and are likely to change with the Victorian Government's guidelines.
