Quantifying short-term foraging movements in a marsupial pest to improve targeted lethal control and disease surveillance.
In New Zealand, the introduced marsupial brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) is a pest species subject to control measures, primarily to limit its ability to transmit bovine tuberculosis (TB) to livestock and for conservation protection. To better define parameters for targeted possum control a...
