management experiment for the declining Partridge Pigeon, Kakadu

Research at Kakadu National Park has indicated
that changing fire regimes and grazing by buffaloes has led to the
decline of the Partridge Pidgeon. This study aimed to identify the
extent that fire influences species numbers and its habitat, and
what management techniques can be used to protect the habitat of
the Partridge Pidgeon.
