Bat-friendly plant covering legislation to be introduced as population fly to warmer climates
  • last year
As temperatures in the capital start to drop, the local flying fox population is flying to warmer coastal climes. But those injured in recent weeks will have to stay a little longer while local rescuers mend their wounds. Most injuries are caused by fruit-tree netting. But later this year legislation is expected to be introduced to increase availability of bat-friendly plant coverings.
