Australia builds floating islands to shield native birds from predators and H5 bird flu, backed by a $60,000 federal grant.
The Australian Capital Territory is installing floating island refuges in its waterways to protect native birds like the sharp-tailed sandpiper and Latham’s snipe from feral predators and H5 avian influenza.
Funded by a $60,000 federal grant, the project is part of a $100 million national effort to prepare for the virus, with $35.9 million dedicated to environmental measures, including biosecurity for endangered species.
Officials say the initiative aims to boost wildlife resilience and could serve as a model for other regions.
