Adelaide University and Kangaroo Island Research Station researchers have developed a simple, low-cost way to help wildlife survive in the critical days and weeks after bushfires, by delivering artificial nectar to animals struggling to find food. The study, published in the Australian Journal of Zoology, provides a proof of concept showing that a wide range of native animals will readily use specially designed nectar feeders following a bushfire.
