ACF Hunter Platypus Spotting

During September, ACF is hosting a platypus month of action, encouraging people from all walks of life to get out to their local waterways and try to spot platypus. Why? ACF has partnered with leading scientists at the University of New South Wales to track platypus population.

In going out and spotting (or not spotting) platypus and recording that data on the platy-project website, the ACF community is helping scientists better understand the size of platypus populations and the support they need to thrive. All are encouraged to come along and help us spot platypus, colouring-in sheets and origami will be provided for kids (or adults) as well. 

Please feel free to bring any snacks/nibblies.
