Have you seen a Quoll? A Potoroo? Or another endangered animal in the Otways?

With so many people travelling along the Great Ocean Road each year to explore this beautiful place, we believe there is an opportunity to collect important data on threatened species through chance encounters made by tourists and locals alike.

Otways Threatened Species Hotline 0-iSPOTTED1 (0477 688 331) has been created to tap into the potential gold mine of threatened species data which could be gained through chance encounters by members of the public.

This number serves a dual purpose:

The first is to raise the profile of threatened species in the Otways, ensuring that members of the community who may have had an encounter with one of these incredible animals can assist in their ongoing conservation.

The second is to provide researchers and land managers with as much data as possible, improving our understanding of threatened species and ensuring we’re making the best possible decisions to ensure their survival. Knowledge is power after all.

When it comes to threatened species, ecologists can never have too much data to work with. If you’re lucky enough to have seen a rare or endangered species and happen to be speaking to an ecologist about the encounter, you may find yourself subject to a range of questions fired off in rapid succession. Where was it? When did you see it? How many did you see? Were there any distinguishing features that stood out?

This is because this information (this data!) can be incredibly helpful when it comes to improving our understanding of a threatened species and therefore improving their conservation prospects in the future. Unfortunately, for a wide range of threatened species there is a severe lack of even basic data – such as where these species are and when they were found there.

Shortly after the launch of the hotline, proof of concept came from a confirmed record of a Long-nosed Potoroo, complete with photographic evidence, encountered by a tourist on one of the many walking tracks found in the Otways.

There may be many more chance encounters like this happening each day, and sharing this data through the Otways Threatened Species Hotline can be of great assistance in the fight against extinction.

If you think you may have had an encounter like this, then please, call 0-iSPOTTED1. We’d love to hear from you!

  11. Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using?
    I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future
    but I’m having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I
    find this topic to be actually something that I think I
    would never understand. It seems too complex and extremely broad for
    me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I’ll
    try to get the hang of it! scoliosis

    Hey there, I think your website might be having browser compatibility issues.
    When I look at your blog site in Firefox, it looks fine
    but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
    I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, terrific
    blog! free dating sites

    can survive a forty foot drop, just so she can be

    Любовь должна быть включена в порядок. Порядок является предпосылкой любви. Это действует и в природе: дерево развивается согласно внутреннему порядку. Его нельзя изменить. Оно может развиваться только в рамках этого порядка. То же самое касается любви и межличностных отношений: они могут получить свое развитие только в рамках порядка. Этот порядок задан.
    Второй порядок состоит в том, что между партнерами должен быть баланс между «давать» и «брать». Если один вынужден давать больше, чем другой, это разрушает отношения. Партнерству необходим этот баланс.
    Одной из составляющих хороших взаимоотношений является баланс брать-давать. Это о том, что мы вкладываем примерно столько сил, времени, ресурсов, сколько получаем взамен. Когда мы получаем отклик от мира, от людей, у нас волшебным образом появляются силы и желание давать больше. Мы чувствуем себя нужными, счастливыми, в гармонии с собой и миром.

    Но иногда этот баланс может нарушаться. Человек начинает или слишком много давать, или слишком много брать.

    Истощение накапливается незаметно, медленно, но оно неутомимо приводит к неким последствиям.

    Когда человек даёт больше, чем получает, то со временем в нём накапливается неудовлетворённость всем происходящим: “Я стараюсь, а меня не ценят”, “Я же всё делаю для всех, а чувствую себя таким несчастным”, “Они не благодарны”, “Я последнюю рубаху отдам, а мне никто не поможет” и т. д. И это ожидаемый эффект от такого неуважительного отношения к собственным ресурсам и потребностям.

    Баланс – основа жизни. Он чрезвычайно важен как в природе, как внутри человеческого организма, так и во взаимоотношениях. Желаю всем найти этот баланс и никогда не терять его.
