Why Are Australia’s Smallest Owl, the Boobook Dying Out?

ECU School of Science PhD candidate Michael Lohr is investigating the possible causes for the decline of the Boobook owl across Western Australia. He’s collecting samples from boobooks around the Perth area and in WA’s Wheatbelt region.
These samples come from two sources - catching live birds and collecting road-killed birds from the public.
