"Linking the Landscape - The Cobaw Biolink" by Newham Landcare
Newham Landcare has produced this 5 minute video which promotes the important role of the Cobaw Biolink in enhancing the connections between Mount Macedon and the Cobaw Range on both private and public land. This video aims to engage landholders and residents and make them aware that their contribution, no matter how big or small, is environmentally vital. Protecting existing high quality native vegetation and creating connectivity in the biolink will help native plants and animals adapt to climate change. Spotlight surveys on habitat-rich roadsides round Newham found more animals present in the Cobaw Biolink than during similar surveys on Mount Macedon.
Landholders can help contribute to the biolink through enhancing waterways, undertaking weed and pest control, protecting remnant vegetation and revegetation and encouraging native grasslands on their properties.
