Spatial information relevant to species that may be vulnerable in the event of an oil spill in the area has been added to the Australian Maritime Safety Authority’s Oil Spill Response Atlas and all species records added to the DPIPWE Natural Values Atlas.

Menkhorst Fisheries and Wildlife Division, Ministry for Conservation, Arthur Ryiah Institute for Environmental Research, 123 Brown Street, Heidelberg, Victoria 3084 Abstract The South Gippsland area of eastern Victoria is the most southerly part of the Australian mainland and is contained within the Bassian zoogeographic subregion. The survey area contains most Bassian environments, including ranges, river flats, swamps, coastal plains, mountainous promontories and continental islands. The area was settled in the mid 180()s and much of the native vegetation was cleared for farming. The status (both present and historical) of 375 vertebrate taxa, 50 mammals, 285 birds, 25 reptiles and 15 amphibians is discussed in terms of distribution, habitat and abundance. As a result of European settlement, 4 mammal species are now extinct and several bird species are extinct or rare. Wildlife populations in the area now appear relatively stable and are catered for by six National Parks and Wildlife Reserves. Introduction TOPOGRAPHY AND PHYSIOGRAPHY {see Hills 1967; and Central Planning Authority 1968) Surveys of wildlife are being conducted by The north and central portions of the area the Fisheries and Wildlife Division of the are dominated by the South Gippsland High- Ministry for Conservation as part of the Land lands (Strzelecki Range) which is an eroded, Conservation Council's review of the use of rounded range of uplifted Mesozoic sand- Crown Land in Victoria. stones and mudstones rising to 730 m.

  • Impact of Rising Sea Levels on Australian Fur Seals
    Impact of rising sea levels on Australian fur seals Lachlan J. McLean1, Steve George2, Daniel Ierodiaconou3, Roger J. Kirkwood4 and John P.Y. Arnould1 1 School of Life and Environmental Sciences, Deakin University, Burwood, Victoria, Australia 2 National Centre for Atmospheric Science-Climate, University of Reading, Reading, United Kingdom 3 School of Life and Environmental Sciences, Deakin University, Warrnambool, Victoria, Australia 4 Research Department, Phillip Island Nature Parks, Cowes, Victoria, Australia ABSTRACT Global warming is leading to many unprecedented changes in the ocean-climate system. Sea levels are rising at an increasing rate and are amplifying the impact of storm surges along coastlines. As variability in the timing and strength of storm surges has been shown to affect pup mortality in the Australian fur seal (Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus), there is a need to identify the potential impacts of increased sea level and storm surges on the breeding areas of this important marine predator in Bass Strait, south-eastern Australia. Using high-resolution aerial photography and topographic data, the present study assessed the impacts of future inundation levels on both current and potential breeding habitats at each colony. Inundation from storm surges, based on a predicted rise in sea level, was modeled at each colony from 2012 to 2100. As sea level increases, progressively less severe storm surge conditions will be required to exceed current inundation levels and, thus, have the potential for greater impacts on pup mortality at Australian fur seal colonies. The results of the present study indicate that by 2100, a 1-in-10 year storm will inundate more habitat on average than a present- day 1-in-100 year storm.

  • A Guide to Boating
    A guide to boating and swimming around whales, dolphins and seals One of the great pleasures of Victoria’s coast line is the opportunity to see whales, dolphins and seals. From Nelson to Mallacoota, there’s a good chance to see a dolphin riding the bow of a boat, a whale leaping out of the water or a seal lazing on a beach. The Wildlife (Marine Mammal) Regulations 2009 are a set of laws to protect seals, dolphins and whales in Victoria. This brochure shows the distances to be kept from marine mammals to ensure your safety and minimise our impact on these special animals. Keep your distance Watch whales, dolphins and seals responsibly and admire them from a distance. Use binoculars or a camera lens to get a closer look. When boating Don’t get too close. It’s OK for whales, dolphins and seals to approach you, but don’t approach them closer than the permitted distances. Wherever possible, leave encounters to chance and at the animal’s choice (see Figure 1). If a whale, dolphin or seal takes an interest in you, slow down, don’t change course or speed suddenly and take care to avoid collisions. If there is a need to stop, reduce speed gradually. Figure 1: Boating around marine animals On land Okay if the animal Deviating towards the approaches vessel animals is not allowed Unless a breeding colony (see Protection Zones) * 30m * Unless for safe passage No go zone For whales and dolphins: In the ‘no go zone’ (shown as a black circle in Figures 2 and 3) recreational boats must not approach within: • 100 metres of a dolphin or • 200 metres of a whale Jet skis are not permitted within 300 metres of any whale or dolphin as they have a bigger impact upon these animals.
