The Australian White Ibis (Threskiornis molucca) is a native Australian species, whose natural inland habitat has been decimated through drought and diminished river flows. Ibis have readily adapted to the urban environment where rapid population growth has impacted local flora and fauna, water quality, aircraft operations and potentially they pose a public health risk.
The focus of this conference was to develop a coordinated approach to the management of Ibis to reduce these impacts, while ensuring the long term survival of the species.
The conference updated council officers, landfill operators, airport operators and other land managers on practical management solutions and research for the conservation of ibis.
The conference was carbon audited by ecosure and was classified carbon neutral by GreenPower. learn more.
