Due to public sensitivity to the culling of native animals is it essential to demonstrate that such activities it is essential to demonstrate that such actions result in environmental improvement. An assessment of the condition of the river red gum/black box woodland, pine/buloke woodland and lakebed herbfield vegation and communities was undertaken in 1998. Floristi and structural data were recorded from 162 quadrats across the park. "From the abstract".
