Around 500 volunteer hours/month go into ensuring the continued protection of the sanctuary and care of the visitor tracks and facilities. This includes significant biosecurity work – monitoring and maintaining the Xcluder predator fences and traps to check for the continued exclusion of rats, possums, mustelids, hedgehogs, cats, dogs, and for the management of mice. There is also on-going work to manage and eliminate various weed species such as sycamore trees, banana passion fruit, ivy and chocolate vine.
