Our guest speakers for evening will be Paul and Leanne Hales, who manage Yourka Reserve (in the Einasleigh Uplands) for Bush Heritage Australia (BHA), a not-for-profit conservation organisation. They will present an overview of BHA, including origins, strategic direction and flagship projects such as endangered species recovery and landscape connectivity. They will also talk about everyday management activities at Yourka, such as fire management, weed and feral animal control, restoration and ecological monitoring, sharing the challenges and successes of landscape-scale conservation management.
