Illegal and unchecked nets entangle and drown platypuses

"Platypus are listed as vulnerable to extinction in Victoria, with habitat destruction and degradation, and poor water quality leading to a significant drop in numbers and distribution since the early 1990s."

“Platypus, turtles and rakali are at risk of being trapped in abandoned or illegal nets and we are hoping that someone will come forward with information about these nets.".

"For five years in the 1960s and 1970s, antimony and other heavy metals leached from an ore processing plant into the melaleuca wetlands. The wetlands used to open up into a moonscape of light grey sand with not a single bit of vegetation."
