  • Fyke-Netting Guidelines, Updated 07.19
    Platypus Fyke-netting Guidelines Introduction This document (most recently revised in July 2019) aims to (1) identify the welfare issues that can arise when a platypus is captured in a fyke net and outline ways to reduce these risks, (2) identify the welfare issues for vertebrate by-catch that can arise when fyke nets are set for platypus and outline ways to reduce these risks, and (3) describe recommended protocols for platypus transport and handling, how best to deal with captured animals that are hypothermic or entangled in litter, and how best to release a platypus back to the wild (see Appendix 1). Although mainly drawn from the experience of APC biologists working in Victoria, the principles outlined below should be widely relevant across the platypus’s range. Platypus welfare issues associated with fyke-netting Drowning. By dropping its heart rate to as little as 1.2 beats per minute, an inactive platypus can survive underwater for up to 11 minutes (Evans et al. 1994). However, this interval is reduced to less than 3 minutes when animals are active (Grant et al. 2004). The platypus will therefore drown quickly if held inside a submerged fyke net. This is most likely to occur if water levels rise after nets have been set, e.g. due to rainfall. Increased water depth and/or flow velocity may inundate fyke nets or cause them to collapse after tearing them loose from their anchoring points. Hypothermia. The platypus normally maintains a body temperature close to 32oC in both air and water (Grant and Dawson 1978a; Grant 1983).

  • 'Tongue of Land' Is the Wadawurrung / Wathaurong
    DJILLONG Djillong: ‘tongue of land’ is the Wadawurrung / Wathaurong Aboriginal name for Geelong TIMELINE www.djillong.net.au At least 65,000 years ago Evidence of Aboriginal people living on the Australian continent and of the world’s earliest human art.

First contact between Wadawurrung and the Europeans. William Buckley escapes from Capt. Collins’ temporary settlement at Sorrento and walks around Port Phillip Bay. Later he is invited to join the Mon:mart clan of Wadawurrung People when Kondiak:ruk 1803 (Swan Wing) declares him her husband returned from the dead. Aboriginal people believed that the dead were reincarnated in a white form. They call Buckley Morran:gurk (Ghost blood). 1820s 1824 Hume & Hovell arrive on Wadawurrung land at Corio Bay and are greeted by Wadawurrung resistance.

  • The Bunyip As Uncanny Rupture: Fabulous Animals, Innocuous Quadrupeds and the Australian Anthropocene
    The Bunyip as Uncanny Rupture: Fabulous Animals, Innocuous Quadrupeds and the Australian Anthropocene Penny Edmonds ‘But it is also said to be something more than animal, and among its supernatural attributes is the cold, awesome, uncanny feeling which creeps over a company at night when the Bunyip becomes the subject of conversation’ Rosa Praed, ‘The Bunyip’, 1891. Y LOVE AFFAIR WITH MUSEUMS BEGAN WHEN I WAS SEVEN. I SAW A BUNYIP’S HEAD in a glass case, a strange, unsettling creature with a one-eyed blind M stare, a cycloptic monster. I was small and I stood up on my toes to see the creature through the glass. On show, the bunyip was mounted in a tall, ornate nineteenth-century wooden cabinet. The typed paper label gave scientific verification: ‘A bunyip’s head, New South Wales. 1841.’ I recall the palpable shock of it, and my mixed childhood emotions: bunyips were real. With its long jawbone wrapped in fawn-coloured fur, it was a decapitated Australian swamp- dweller preserved. Yet, the horrific creature looked so sad, and with its sightless eye, gaping mouth and cartoonish backward drooping ears. It was a creature of pathos—a gormless, goofy redhead, a ranga, a total outsider.1 1 A ‘ranga’ is Australian slang for a red headed person, once pejorative, but now also used in the positive. The term was entered into the Australian Oxford Dictionary in 2012. Thanks to Lynette Russell for re-acquainting me with this object, known as the Macleay Museum ‘bunyip’ (The Macleay Museum, Sydney University, Registration number MAMU NHM.45).
