Lace Monitor Research Project

The University of Western Sydney has been carrying out a scientific research project on Lace Monitors. This projects is headed by Dr Jason Flesch (lecturer in Animal Science).

I am lucky to be involved in this project with Jason and others in the Warragamba catchment area.

The project aims hope to increase the understanding of the home range of wild lace monitors, about places they hibernate and movements they make using GPS data taken 12 times a day. This data gives us information such as location and elevation tracked by SIRTRACK sattelites.

Here in this thread is just a touch of information and pictures to get you excited. ENJOY!


Firstly we were staying at the township of Yerrandarie at the back of the Warragamba catchment area! An historic town which was populated heavily before the flooding of the burragorang valley when creating the Warragamba dam (Sydney's water supply).

We stayed at the old Police station which is used primarily by NPWS as accomadation when working in the area.
