Landscape-managed species

Landscape-managed species are best assisted by addressing threats such as habitat loss or degradation within a landscape.

This is because these species are often widely distributed, highly mobile or dispersed, or affected by landscape-scale threats.

The squirrel glider and Rosenberg’s goanna are two examples.

Dealing with threats

Ways of dealing with threats to landscape-managed species include:

• replanting or weeding as part of broadscale vegetation and habitat management programs
• controlling land clearing
• sharing water to sustain floodplain ecosystems
• managing coasts, estuaries and coastal wetlands
• managing national parks and reserves.
