(Phys.org)—Researchers working to increase the number of bridled nailtail wallabies in Queensland Australia, have discovered that stopping the practice of culling dingoes in the area did not change the number of feral cats as hoped, the team reports in their paper published in Wildlife Research. Feral cats are known to kill and eat juvenile wallabies.
