The Penguin Foundation is teaming up with Phillip Island Nature Parks and the Traditional Owners from the Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation, to improve the penguin habitat by conducting weed eradication and planting new penguin friendly homes.
The 10 hectare area of habitat between Swan Lake and Summerland Beach is shared by the endangered Eastern barred bandicoot and the Short-tailed shearwater and provides ideal habitat for breeding and rest while on land.
Work needs to start in July 2022 so we are ready for their breeding season.
