SUMMARY:Dr Ana Gracanin ‘Why Hollow There! The importance of tree hollows for Australian native fauna’
DESCRIPTION:Ana\, from the Fenner School of Environment and Society at ANU\, will talk about how hollows are created\, how different animals\, including gliders\, use them\, and how we can support wildlife in our backyards. \nAbstract  \nIn Australia\, 303 native wildlife species rely on hollows formed inside of trees! In this talk by Ana Gracanin\, a greater glider researcher\, you will learn all about how hollows are created\, how different animals use them\, and what happens inside of them. We will also learn about how different technologies and nest boxes are used to overcome the loss of hollows in urban areas\, and about how you can support wildlife in your own backyard. \nBiography   \nDr Ana Gracanin’s research revolves around the conservation and ecology of arboreal mammals in fragmented landscapes. She is particularly interested in understanding the population genetics\, movement patterns\, and habitat connectivity of these species. Her work explores the impact of environmental disturbances\, such as wildfires\, on endangered species like the greater glider and the spotted-tailed quoll. She also studies tree hollows and their ecological role for hollow-dependent species\, particularly with a focus on the greater glider. \nAna completed her PhD at the University of Wollongong in 2023\, and prior to this she obtained her Bachelor of Conservation Biology (Honours I) in 2018. \nAna’s current research involves understanding how greater gliders use nest boxes and hollows in a post-fire environment\, and evaluating hollow augmentation methods for population recovery. \nBooking Link: https://www.trybooking.com/CQGML \nBooking\n	Lunchtime talks are held at 12.30 pm every Thursday from February to November. Talks last for 1 hour. We welcome donations by gold coins\, notes\, or electronically. The Friends use donations received at each talk to support Gardens’ programs and development and we thank all those who have donated.  \nUnless otherwise indicated\, talks are held in the ANBG Theatrette. \nIt is a good idea to reserve a seat at the talks that you wish to attend; talks may be booked out very quickly.  Bookings can be made from about 30 days in advance until the night before the talk or until seating limits are reached.  \nBooking Link: https://www.trybooking.com/CQGML \nThe Friends of the ANBG thank the speakers who volunteer their time and talents to further the knowledge of all attending events in the Gardens. Many summaries or PowerPoint presentations of Thursday talks are available to Friends at the ANBG library. Please direct queries about the talks to the Thursday Talks Team: email talks@friendsanbg.org.au.
