The RabbitScan Challenge
Written by Administrator   
Thursday, 30 April 2009 10:30

REGISTER HERE NOW to be able to view the RabbitScan Map and add your sightings. So far we have over 3,050 people registered and over 3000 surveys conducted using the RabbitScan Google Maps data capture tool. We welcome multiple sites by users to give a more accurate understanding of the presence or absence of rabbits and their impacts on your landscapes. Download the User Guide for RabbitScan - it has visuals and steps to help you put your sites on the map. Our challenge (and yours) is to record data about rabbits from at least 5000 sites across Australia that have rabbits (e.g. rabbits seen, evidence of rabbit dung and warrens identified). We welcome people putting in multiple sites to give the best indication of where rabbits and their damage are being seen.

"What ever the outcomes of climate change, generally speaking they will favour invasive species with broad ecological and habitat tolerance. This will exacerbate the impact rabbits have on the natural environment"
