Scientists probe connection between deadly frog disease and coal wastewater (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A study found higher amounts of chytrid fungus in a frog species exposed to coalmine wastewater compared to nearby unexposed sites. The mine company said any casual link between altered water chemistry changes and severity of infection was speculative. Scientists said water quality monitoring programs should include factors like frog health. Frogs in Australia's oldest national park have higher rates of a deadly fungus when exposed to wastewater from a coalmine compared to unexposed waterways, a
Video captures ranger's joyful tears on finding rare night parrot chick (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A young night parrot, one of Australia's most cryptic birds, has been filmed in a spinifex tunnel in remote WA. The daytime footage captures the elation of a ranger team as they make the rare discovery of the bird in the grassy nest. Rangers for the Ngururrpa Indigenous Protected Area are working with scientists to develop an eDNA program for finding signs of night parrots in waterholes. Even in the heart of night parrot country it can be rare to actually see one of the world's most cryptic bird
These tiny crocodiles may be at risk, but they can't be listed as 'threatened' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NT's pygmy crocodiles aren't genetically different enough to be a separate species from freshwater crocodiles or even a subspecies, a new study suggests. Some scientists say this "unique ecological form" of crocodile may still need targeted conservation. Further research into a second pygmy crocodile site at Bullo River is needed, as well as ecosystem studies and movement patterns from both populations. The Northern Territory is synonymous with big open skies and humungous crocodiles. But high i
'Highly inbred' dingo population at risk of extinction, ecologists say (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A group of desert dingoes that live in a small pocket of Victoria and South Australia will be assessed for threatened species status under federal environment law. There are thought to be around 100 adult dingoes left in the group, which faces population collapse as inbreeding rises. A public consultation to determine whether the desert dingoes should be considered critically endangered will run for three years to 2029. A controversial population of desert dingoes could become the first of their
What does bird flu do to humans and does it have pandemic potential? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The detection of a deadly strain of bird flu in seals in Australia may have you wondering about the risk to humans. Although H5N1 has previously spread to mammals elsewhere in the world, the chance of people catching it is considered low by Australia's Centre for Disease Control (CDC). Since a dominant new clade, H5N1 2.3.4.4b, emerged in Europe six years ago, there have been just 141 reported cases of H5N1 globally, including 24 deaths. CDC director-general Zoe Wainer said bird flu was rarely t
