Invasive Animals

European Rabbits, European Wasps, Feral Cats

Invasive animals are those which are not native to Tasmania and could aggressively invade and establish in the state if they gain a foothold or are freely allowed to spread.

A range of invasive animals pose a serious threat to biodiversity in Tasmania and have the potential for significant impacts on the state’s unique wildlife, environment and agriculture.

For more information regarding Invasive Animals contact the Department of Natural Resources and Environment Tasmania Invasive Species Branch.

The Huon Valley Council acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the South East Nation, the Melukerdee people of the Huon River and the Lyluequonny people of the Far South. We recognise their continuing connection to land, water and culture, and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.

Community Engagement

Community engagement is about us working together to understand and resolve an issue or project. It is a process that involves the public in decision making and the use of community input to make better, more informed decisions.
