Understanding population trends relies on long-term monitoring, confident assumptions about detectability and accurate/reliable species ID. Established survey techniques and emerging technology are improving Squirrel Glider detectability. These promise to increase the number of records in atlases and improve our overall understanding of population dynamics. What are the key elements of improving our understanding of Squirrel Glider distribution, abundance and conservation status?
