A submission consisting of 15 case studies that form an attachment to the primary submission to the Senate inquiry into preventing new invasive species.
This submission to the Senate inquiry into the arrival and establishment of new invasive species impacting on the Australian environment shows that Australia has suffered major losses due to invasive species. It provides data and case studies that indicate ongoing, serious, and systemic flaws in environmental biosecurity and makes recommendations to strengthen environmental biosecurity to prevent the flow of new invasive species that have deadly consequences for the Australian environment.
An often fatal viral disease detected in domestic pigeons in Australia last year is here to stay and no one can tell what its impacts
The Australian Government must stem the rising tide of environmental pests by creating a national body tasked with harnessing the energy and brainpower of community

People, wildlife, agriculture, infrastructure – no aspect of our lives is safe from the destructive power of invasive ants now found in Australia.
Most plants being promoted as in Australia as biofuels are serious weeds that should not be grown.
The Biosecurity Bill marks the final stage in a major overhaul of the way Australia protects its borders from invasive species.
Cat-lover or not, none of us can escape the devastating impacts feral and roaming cats are having on Australia’s wildlife.
These case studies illustrate the need for Australia to prevent the establishment of new invasive species in the country.
Feral horse numbers are expanding across the Australian Alps and other parts of the country, causing immense ecological damage.
