As Australia confronts biodiversity loss, this research underscores the importance of listening to those who know Country best.
The hardest to save will be five reptiles, four birds, four frogs, two mammals and one fish, for which there are no recent confirmed records of their continued existence.
We’ve identified three frog species very likely to already be extinct. Another four species on our list are still surviving, but not likely to make it to 2040 without help.
There’s still a very good chance of recovery for most of these species, but only with new targeted conservation effort.
With targeted conservation action, we might just save many of these species before it’s too late.
Twenty of these freshwater fish species have a 50% or greater probability of extinction within the next 20 years.
New research has shown how to measure conservation progress for Australia’s 238 endangered bird species
A new map shows that more than 25% of all land outside Antarctica is held and managed by Indigenous peoples. This makes these communities vital allies in the global conservation effort.
