TL;DR: Reintroductions of the nationally threatened greater stick-nest rat, burrowing bettong, greater bilby and western barred bandicoot were all considered successful based on short and medium-term success criteria.

TL;DR: It is estimated that annual cat predation accounted for approximately 700 reptiles, 150 birds and 50 native mammals per square kilometre, whereas foxes consumed on average 290 reptiles persquare kilometre and few native mammals and birds in the Roxby Downs region each year.

TL;DR: The feasibility of using ants as indicators in land management remains a key issue, given the large numbers of taxonomically challenging specimens in samples, and a lack of invertebrate expertise within most land-management agencies, but recent work has shown that major efficiencies can be achieved by simplifying the ant sorting process, and such efficiencies could actually enhance rather than compromise indicator performance.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed the evidence base to support this priority, and reviewed information on cat presence/absence on Australian islands and mainland cat-proof exclosures, finding that cats occur across >99.8% of Australia's land area.

TL;DR: It is suggested that populations of rodent species in northern South Australia below the Critical Weight Range may also be significantly affected by introduced cats, foxes and/or rabbits and that a taxa specific model of Australian mammal decline may be more accurate than one based on body weight.
