Feral Pig Reduction for Improved Wetland Health in the Southern Gulf Region

Principal Investigator

The Southern Gulf NRM are conducting wild pig control works to protect wetlands across the Southern Gulf region. JCU will develop and implement a Wetland Health Report Card. This will involve establishing a monitoring program to collect and analyse data on wetland and riverine health across the Southern Gulf of Carpentaria. Monitoring will include assessing water quality, biodiversity via eDNA metabarcoding, and conducting aquatic habitat assessments.
