Responding to the feral cat crisis

$ 50.00

Feral cats kill at least 75 million native animals every day across Australia. There is currently no effective mechanism for broadscale feral cat control. However, working with a range of partners, AWC has developed a practical strategy designed to minimise their impacts and facilitate the development of a long term solution. This strategy involves:
1. Extensive field research on feral cat behaviour and ecology.
2. Testing whether a healthy Dingo population will suppress feral cat numbers. This research is supported by the Australian Research Council.
3. Enhancing ground cover so as to impair the efficiency of cats in grasslands and woodlands.
4. Establishing feral cat-free areas to protect core populations of species most vulnerable to cats.
5. Strategically implementing control measures such as shooting and baiting to protect highly threatened species.

We need your help to save our wildlife from feral cats. Please make a tax deductible donation to support AWC’s strategy to reduce the impact of feral cats on native wildlife.

$50 will support feral cat research designed to find a long-term solution to feral cats.

Your donation will help protect native animals at risk from feral cats, such as the Bilby, the Mala and a host of our small northern mammals.
