Speaking on Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) radio on Tuesday, lead researcher Dr Thomas Newsome said that conservation efforts were widely targeted
at larger endangered species such as sharks and rhinos, meaning smaller,
hard-to-find Australian species such as the wallaby and the bilby are left at
the greatest risk of extinction.
"We've basically neglected a whole suite of species Cheap Hydro Flask Coffee 20 oz Coffee Pink , and our research suggests that we should be putting just as much effort into the smaller species as the
larger ones," Newsome said.
He said that widespread land clearing, aggressive farming practices and the introduction of foreign predators posed the greatest risk to some of Australia's
most iconic species, and had contributed to Australia having the highest mammal
extinction rate in the world.
"A lot of the freshwater fish in Australia have been ignored, and these species have highly restricted and specialized habitat requirements. Habitat
loss can basically wipe out a single species in one blow Cheap Hydro Flask Beer & Wine 10 oz Wine Tumbler Red ," he said.
"For the mammals on the other hand, it's small wallabies and bilbies which are highly threatened. In fact, Australia has the highest extinction rate in the
world for mammals.
"We've lost 30 mammals to extinction in the past 200 years - that's half the world's mammal extinctions in our own backyard. And when you take these animals
out of the system, there can be cascading impacts on the ecosystem."
Newsome said that in order to lower the extinction rate in Australia, more funding for smaller species was required Cheap Hydro Flask Hydration 21 oz Standard Mouth w Sport Cap Red , while a lessened human impact on the ecosystem was also required.
"We need to slow down the rate of deforestation, and probably need to change our forestry practices, but unfortunately policy is heading in the other
direction," Newsome said.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are feeling the love at the Invictus Games! The royal couple walked hand-in-hand into the wheelchair tennis event at the
Paralympic-style games in Toronto on Monday.
Markle looked chic and casual in a white blouse and jeans Cheap Hydro Flask Hydration 24 oz Standard Mouth Pink , while the prince wore his Invictus Games polo shirt. They both sported matching sunglasses as
they took in the match from the sidelines. Between sets, they turned around in
their seats to chat with Invictus Games fans around them.
She added, “The rules are different to normal tennis as well so they were talking about that. Harry was explaining it to her. They were absolutely lovely,
they asked me if I enjoyed the game and who I was cheering on.”
Kylie Lawler, whose husband Sean Lawler played for the Australian team Cheap Hydro Flask Hydration 24 oz Standard Mouth White , said that the couple “seemed at home with each other” and were “very easy to talk to.”
And while they chatted with fans about the games, there “was no wedding talk at all,” Kylie added. “They seemed lovely. They were having a lovely time.”
After the match, which New Zealand won, the couple stood and chatted with fans. They then left the venue walking hand-in-hand to cheers from the crowd.
On Saturday Cheap Hydro Flask Hydration 18 oz Wide Mouth Grey , the royal couple made their first official appearance together at the opening ceremony at the games,
where Markle supported her boyfriend from the stands.
Markle wore a purple dress with a purple leather coat over her shoulders as she sat with friend Markus Anderson. She stood along with the rest of the crowd
during the Canadian national anthem and clapped heartily as Prime Minister
Justin Trudeau (her acquaintance and a friend of Harry) made his welcome
address.
Markle recently opened up about Harry, telling Vanity Fair: “I can tell you that at the end of the day, I think it’s really simple. We’re two people who are
really happy and in love.”
“It has its challenges, and it comes in waves — some days it can feel more challenging than others Cheap Hydro Flask Hydration 32 oz Wide Mouth Green ,” Markle said. “And right out of the gate it was surprising the way things changed. But I still have
this support system all around me, and, of course, my boyfriend’s support.”
Both Harry and Meghan share a commitment to supporting the troops. The prince, who served 10 years in the Army Cheap Hydro Flask Hydration 40 oz Wide Mouth Blueberry , has long been a champion of causes that benefit servicemen and women. In addition to the
Invictus Games, he has inspired veterans with the Walking with the Wounded
charity and his Endeavour Fund. Meghan, meanwhile, traveled to Afghanistan in
December 2014 on a USO tour.
