12.1.4.Some threatened fauna

Many of the threatened species (including endangered and vulnerable species) found in the Mid-Murrumbidgee Catchment are small and hard-to-see ground-dwellers, or birds and bats associated with grasslands or grassy woodlands. These plant communities have been the most altered or eradicated by grazing and development.
Threats to fauna include loss of habitat, predation by feral animals, loss or disturbance of nesting sites, illegal trapping and accidental poisoning.
