    LEVEL 1 BIOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF RAVENSTHORPE GOLD PROJECT, WESTERN AUSTRALIA Page | 101 home ranges may overlap, there tends to be a smaller non-overlapping ‘core’ area defined by den locations. Core areas are approximately 4 km2 and 0.9 km2 for males and females, respectively (Serena & Soderquist, 1989). Females tend to be territorial, although some areas may be shared by a mother and her adult daughter (Serena & Soderquist, 1989). Male core areas are much larger and overlap broadly with other males as well as females. Both sexes occur at similar densities in the Jarrah forest. Home range size may be smaller in areas where foxes are effectively controlled, and where Chuditch population densities are higher (DEC, 2012b; Mathew, 1996). Chuditch are opportunistic feeders, foraging primarily on the ground at night. In the forest, insects and other large invertebrates comprise the bulk of their diet, though some mammals, birds and lizards are also included (DEC, 2012b; Serena et al., 1991). The Chuditch is primarily a nocturnal species, they may be diurnally active during the breeding season (April to July) or when cold, wet weather restricts nocturnal foraging (DEC, 2012b). The average life span of an established adult is two years, and wild Chuditch generally don’t live past four years (Soderquist, 1988). Factors contributing to Chuditch mortality include: ▪ Motor vehicle strike (Chuditch commonly forage along dirt roads and tracks making them more susceptible to this); ▪ Illegal shooting near roads; ▪ Predation by foxes, raptors and feral cats; ▪ Injury in rabbit traps; and ▪ Natural accidents and disease. The Chuditch has been recorded on camera within the Project Area during the two fauna surveys conducted by APM in 2016 and 2017.

    ____________________________________________________________________________________________ PO Box 437 Kalamunda WA 6926 +61 08 9257 1625 [email protected] REVIEW OF FLORA, VEGETATION AND FAUNA VALUES ON LOTS 5 & 6 (NO 1728) GREAT NORTHERN HIGHWAY, BULLSBROOK 1. INTRODUCTION Mattiske Consulting Pty Ltd was commissioned in November 2018 by Brikmakers to undertake a flora, vegetation and fauna assessment of a proposed expansion area for clay and sand extraction to the south of Walyunga Road. The proposed expansion area occurs on approximately 15.9141 hectares of which 2.31ha consists of isolated trees and small remnants of Jarrah, Marri and Wandoo over pasture on the proposed northern sand pit, 0.17ha consists of Banksia trees over pasture on the proposed northern sand pit, 0.08ha consists of planted trees on the proposed southern sand pit, 0.08 consists of isolated Sheoak trees over pasture and 0.03ha consists of an isolated Marri tree on the proposed clay pit, see Figures 1 and 2 and Appendix A (photographs). The majority of the area is completely degraded and is currently used for grazing cattle. In the remaining areas of trees, the understorey is dominated by pasture species or introduced species. The latter degraded nature of the area has resulted from the agricultural activities on the area. It is also intended to clear a small section (620m2) of the road verges of Walyunga Road, Bullsbrook, Figure 3 and Appendix A. The area occurs on the Pinjarra plain on the eastern section of the Swan Coastal Plain. The section of road verge is proposed to be required to ensure safe access to the areas to the south of Walyunga Road.
