Situated just 8 kilometres from the CBD of Australia's largest city, North Head Sanctuary protects significant areas of intact coastal banksia scrub. It is also the site of a successful AWC program to restore locally extinct mammals (Bush Rats, Eastern Pygmy Possums, and Brown Antechinus) that play an important role as pollinators.
AWC ecologist Aiden Wright studied the genetics of the burgeoning population of native Bush Rats at North Head and is passionate about the reintroduction of 'common' species to help restore urban ecosystems. PhD candidate Angela Raña made headlines in 2021 with her innovative research project – deploying specially designed habitat pods to assist wildlife in the aftermath of bushfires.
