CANADA: A long term study has found Australia’s mammals are in far more trouble from climate change than previously thought.
It began as a short-term study but has turned into eight years of camping out in the Victorian bush for the researchers, who’ve been monitoring the strength of native animal populations.
They’ve been surprised by how quickly mammal populations shrink when times get tough.
After years of using traps and cameras to watch the comings and goings of native mammals in Victoria’s Grampians National Park, researchers are still turning up surprises.
