A successful feral cat trapping effort in northern Tasmania leads to a spike in the devil population.

In short:

Tasmanian devil numbers appear to be improving around the mouth of the Tamar River in the state’s north.

A dedicated group of Landcare volunteers is behind a five-year feral cat trapping program that has led to an increase in native animals and birdlife in the area.

What’s next?

West Tamar Landcare is confident its trapping program can be replicated where feral cats have been detrimental to native wildlife.
