Ecological Survey
Southland's landscape is scattered with native forest remnants, wetlands, dune systems and other important natural features. These areas provide important services as well as refuges and food sources for native birds and wildlife.
Ecological surveys are undertaken by local ecologists, and provide valuable information to landowners that can assist with overall land management. If you're interested in the significance of an area on your land but don't know much about it, an ecological survey is a great way to understand more about it and the ways in which this can be managed for the future.
