Abstract/Contents: | Describes a project at the Links at Kennedy Bay, Australia, to retain and propagate indigenous plants and animals. Explains that developers of the site were required to ensure several environmental objectives, including that "turfed and water areas were kept to a minimum"; "wetlands and their plant species (such as paperbark trees) were retained to an acceptable degree"; and "care was to be taken to protect indigenous fauna." States that "the retention of such a significant proportion of the site in its natural state has ensured that impact on the indigenous fauna has been minimised [minimized] and they continue to flourish." |
