The 2019–20 Kangaroo Island (KI) bushfires burnt more than 96% of known KI dunnart habitat. Following extensive surveys using new motion camera technology the dunnart was discovered to have persisted at over 100 sites across western KI.
Kangaroo Island experienced bushfires that burned 211,500 hectares of land.
While Hooded Plover populations in South Australia are stable and depends on protection against urban development, human recreational activity and introduced predators.
The Arckaringa Daisy's restricted distribution and small population make it particularly vulnerable and emphasise the need for conservation efforts to ensure its survival.
