Geographe Bay Catchment

Looking for a fun and educational activity for the family? You can monitor possums in your own backyard, local park or school and contribute to growing science on western ringtail possums. The data you collect will be used as a reference for population trends, future planning decisions and conservation projects. The data becomes more valuable each year as the Tally is repeated - we are now in our 6th Tally!The Geographe Bay Catchment contains prime habitat for the critically endangered Western Ringtail Possum (thought to be less than 8000 remaining in the wild) and hence provides a wonderful opportunity for individual or group participation and education of this iconic species. Plus, we always share the findings with the community through an engaging infographic. This popular event is now being delivered in other hotspots across the range of the western ringtail possum using the same methodology. Citizen scientists like you are contributing invaluable data to help further conserve this species into the future.
