Join us for the 2024 Ringtail Tally. Sign up at events.humanitix.com/2024-ringtail-tallyThe 2023 ringtail tally revealed some sobering statistics. From 2016 to 2023, there were 450 reported deaths, of which 64% were from road kills. Domestic dogs and cats were also a big contributor to ringtail deaths. Nicole Lincoln, from GeoCatch, explained there are a few simple things that pet owners can do to help the critically endangered species.“If you own a cat, make sure it is contained at all times. Catios are a great way to let your cat enjoy the outdoors whilst keeping wildlife safe. If you have dogs, ensure that they are inside at night and can not access ringtail habitat.”“You can also install possum bridges in your yard to allow possums to move from tree to tree, and there are some low-cost fence extensions available if your dog is jumping up on the fence to access a possum highway,” said Nicole.Photo: Mel Bell. #criticallyendangeredspecies #busselton #westernringtail #ringtailtally #westernringtailpossum #busseltonwa #petsawaypossumsplay #petsnightin #criticallyendangered

Busselton Senior High students studying Certificate 2 in Community Servicers are excited to be involved in the upcoming Ringtail Tally, and you too can sign up at events.humanitix.com/2024-ringtail-tally Active Volunteering teacher Louise Mutch explained the positive outcomes for students and the local environment. “This is a beneficial program for our students to help look after our local wildlife and give back to our community. Last year, these students helped GeoCatch with planting and mulching trees on the foreshore that will eventually become possum habitat, so it is a great opportunity for our students to continue with volunteer work,” said Louise.All participants in the tally will go in the draw to win a possum box, hand-made by the Busselton Men’s Shed. Our community's survey efforts help monitor ringtail numbers over time and show how valuable backyard habitats are to their survival.
