The resource has been developed by the Platypus Awareness and Conservation Team (PACT), a group comprising a number of organisations.
Platypus are being accidentally caught in yabby traps & drowned. These traps are illegal in the HCRCMA region. The level of community awareness of this issue is poor, and the use of these traps and the associated accidental platypus deaths are continuing.
Information has been customised for use by councils, landholders, schools and special interest groups in the wider community.
