I am a Research Scientist in the Science Division’s Fauna Conservation Program. My research investigates the response of native predators (chuditch) to fox control and resource availability in the northern jarrah forest.

My principal area of expertise is the ecology of mammalian predators, and the interactions that occur within carnivore guilds. I also have a strong interest in the management of invasive species for the conservation of biodiversity.

RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

Since 1995, I have been involved in researching the ecology of Australia's native and introduced fauna, with particular emphasis on the impacts and management of introduced predators.

Introduced predator control and sustained fauna recovery in south-west Western Australia - is there a mesopredator release effect?
