Behavioural and Evolutionary Ecology Conservation Biology and Wildlife Management

My current focus is on three urgent and related conservation issues: 1.Saving the Tasmanian devil from extinction in the wild through understanding and managing Tasmanian devil facial tumour disease; 2.Addressing the ecosystem consequences of the functional loss of Tasmania's top predator, the devil, in the presence of destructive introduced predators, foxes and cats; 3.The responses of terrestrial vertebrates to multiple land uses (farming, forestry and urban), and habitat loss at landscape and regional scales
