The amazing diversity we see in Australian animal developed early and has slowed considerably in the last 10 million years, say Ian Brennan and Scott Keogh from the ANU Research School of Biology.
How does the impact of the early-life environment affect the ageing process?
New research involving biologists from The Australian National University (ANU) shows that some birds are just as skilled as humans at eavesdropping.
Kara Youngentob's research interests are in applied ecological research to inform and improve wildlife management and conservation decisions.

Despite only taking up 3% of the world’s total landmass area, the Indo-Australian Archipelago holds a disproportionate amount of biodiversity.
Australia has among the most unique biodiversity in the world, but also the highest historical rate of extinction.
Deciding where to forage must not only account for variation in habitat quality, but also where others might forage.
Oceans are environments where a diversity of human activities threaten marine life. To achieve effective conservation, it is crucial to comprehend the movement patterns of animals within these dynamic environments: how, when, where, and why they move.
Phylogenetics is the science of reconstructing the evolutionary history of groups of species or individuals. Most phylogenetic methods include the treelikeness assumption, which states that every site in an alignment shares an identical evolutionary history.
