About

(inactive) Department of Parks and Wildlife awarded a contract to Latitude 42 Environmental Consultants (Latitude 42 Environmental Consultants Pty Ltd) for the provision of detector dogs and handlers to assess the success of a feral cat eradication campaign on Dirk Hartog Island, Western Australia.

The contract required the team to have considerable experience, familiarity with the island, and dogs trained to detect cat scent while avoiding non-target animals and baits.

Dogs were to be muzzled, wear booties in thorny areas, and have movements tracked.

Insight

This contract highlights the use of specialized detection animals in conservation efforts, a niche but critical service for invasive species management on ecologically sensitive islands.
