Status of the Endangered Population of Little Penguins Eudyptula minor at Manly
Review of 5 years of monitoring (2002-03 to 2006-07) and the implementation of the Recovery Plan since 2000.
The little penguin (Eudyptula minora) population at Manly was listed as endangered in the NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 in January 1997. The recovery plan for this endangered population was approved in October 2000 and was implemented under the direction of the Little Penguin Recovery Team.
This report was prepared to review the implementation of the recovery plan and report on the 5 years of monitoring data, from 2002–03 to 2006–07, for the colony.
The review also identified continuing and emerging issues and priorities for the ongoing implementation of the recovery program.
