Welcome to our Summer 2009/10 edition of Wildlife Matters. 2009 has been an immensely challenging year for most organisations. One measure of the nation's wealth - our sharemarket - started the year in steep decline before turning a corner in March. The relatively rapid turnaround in this financial indicator stands in stark contrast to the relentless decline in the indicators of Australia's natural capital. Our indicators for threatened species, landscape health and matters such as water quality continue to deteriorate.
