In Western Australia, over 30,000 native animals were safely salvaged from the 1000 hectare construction site of Chevron’s massive gas processing facility.
Many native species of frogs, lizards, snakes, mice, and geckos, among others, were collected by a team of zoologists ahead of the termite mound 'deconstructions'.
Principal zoologist, at Terrestrial Ecosystems, Graham Thompson, said it was the largest number of animals he had ever removed from an industrial development site.
