Back from the Brink

Kuril & Currawong have a strong focus on conservation outcomes, particularly for lesser-known species. This includes:

  • Developing, submitting and managing grant-funded projects on target threatened species

  • Implementing and trialling cutting edge methods for threatened species detection (camera trapping, drone imagery, bioacoustics, eDNA)

  • Critically engaging with discourse around value, threat and perceptions of risk to species of interest - irrespective of their policy-based classification

See the projects below where these services have been a core part of delivery

The little things

We strongly advocate for monitoring and recovery of lesser-known threatened invertebrates on the projects we are engaged on. For example, finding new populations of the Endangered Mitchell’s Rainforest snail in the Northern Rivers region.

New technology

In our partnership with Koinmerburra Aboriginal Corporation, we are learning together how we can use technologies like drones, camera traps and eDNA to find high priority species or track recovery.

Be the solution

We partner and support the research, writing and project management of grants for conservation action. For example, delivering participatory mapping and strategy development for marine turtles across the Top End.

We have a core interest in creating effective action to help threatened species recover. Is there a species you are working for that we can assist you with?
