New research shows just how important our digging mammals are for urban ecosystem health with @annajmhopkins @NTay_ @western_web @consecology @KatinkaXRuthrof @treenabene @EdithCowanUni @MurdochUni @Science_DBCA @CityofMandurah
Keep an eye out in your backyard!
Quendas are a member of the bandicoot family and, as ECU's @annajmhopkins explains, the little cuties play a major role in helping our native gardens and bushland stay healthy.

Should we carefully trial the reintroduction of dingoes in Victoria & elsewhere? Yes.
Should livestock graziers be concerned and should they be supported? Yes.
Are other voices and values, including those of First Nations people, just as important? Yes!

@EuanRitchie1 of @Deakin University explains how the trial will work and what's involved in the ambitious plan. #9News
