World-First Drone Mouse Eradication Passes Six-Month Check on Browse Island

Staff from the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) in Western Australia conducted a follow-up survey at Browse Island Nature Reserve in April 2026, confirming the absence of surviving mice. This survey is part of a world-first initiative that utilized drone technology for mouse eradication on the island. The successful results of this six-month check indicate that the innovative approach to wildlife management has effectively eliminated the invasive species, contributing to the conservation efforts in the region.
