Dr Russ Barrow is a researcher from Charles Sturt University and the ‘Dung Beetles Ecosystems Engineers’ project. Russ will talk about: benefits of beetles, beetles found in Gippsland, beetle ID, how to live capture and relocate.
Several local farmers will talk about their experiences in setting up dung beetle nurseries on their farms for breeding purposes (including new species released in Australia) and why they are doing this.
