This project aims to provide strategies and commercial products for the best management of animals in plant community restoration. Ensuring effective seed dispersal and minimizing levels of herbivory will reduce resources expended on restoration and ensure sustainable ecosystems. A small reduction in the costs of individual plant protection not only improves the success of rehabilitation programs but save millions of dollars throughout the mining industry and rural areas generally. It will also save thousands of dollars in culling programs. An extension of our study will target roadside hazards where kangaroos and traffic have high impact rates.

该项目旨在为植物群落恢复中动物的最佳管理提供策略和商业产品。确保有效的种子传播和尽量减少草食动物的数量将减少用于恢复的资源，并确保可持续的生态系统。单个植物保护成本的小幅降低不仅提高了恢复计划的成功率，而且在整个采矿业和农村地区节省了数百万美元。这也将节省数千美元的淘汰计划。我们研究的扩展将针对袋鼠和交通影响率高的路边危险。
