Abstract

This strategy identifies those threatened species that should be priorities for management attention, due to a range of ecological, taxonomic, cultural and other values, including the extent to which conservation actions in Kakadu can contribute to the conservation outlook for the species across its entire range. This strategy also prioritises species for management attention and intervention based upon an analysis of experts’ opinion on the likelihood of their persistence over a 20-year period in Kakadu with and without management actions.' - Summary,

Notes

This strategy has been commissioned by Kakadu National Park. It responds to the interest and concerns of the Kakadu Board of Management, traditional owners, staff in Kakadu National Park and Parks Australia, and the Kakadu Research Advisory Committee. The strategy will be progressively implemented by Kakadu National Park over 10 years. Some recommendations are already being implemented, while others require further planning and consultation. This strategy was developed with the support of the North Australian Hub of the National Environmental Research Program. Michael Douglas oversaw the management and production of this strategy, and Jaana Dielenberg and Carli Piltz its layout and production.,
