SOUTH AUSTRALIA

WEDNESDAY, 15TH MAY 2013

The Federal Government has refused to release video showing endangered sea lions and other marine mammals entangled and drowned in shark fishing nets. The Australian Fisheries Management Authority was pressured to install video cameras on fishing vessels after scientists found between 193-227 marine mammals a year were being slaughtered by careless fishing techniques on commercial boats in South Australian waters.

Nature Foundation South Australia has officially opened it's new nature reserve at Hiltaba Station. Hiltaba Nature Reserve spreads over 780 square kilometres in the Gawler Ranges of South Australia and was bought in April 2012 by Nature Foundation SA when it was a sheep station.

Two months of public consultations over the future of groundwater use in the lower Limestone Coast of South Australia has come to a close.

About 640 people have backed a push to save 30 plane trees at Thebarton from the axe.

South Australian farmers are holding off sowing their crops as warmer than usual conditions continue into May.

Hands Across The Sand 2013 - Please join us! Join hands in support of a clean energy future and to oppose plans by Bight Petroleum to explore and drill in the sensitive waters off Kangaroo Island. Say YES to a clean energy future and NO to dangerous offshore seismic testing and drilling. 10:30am until 11:30am on Saturday the 18th of May, Brighton Beach, meet at the Jetty.

Natural Resources South Australia Murray-Darling Basin is continuing to forge meaningful relationships with schools across the region. Five Upper Murray and 10 Lower Murray schools have been selected to be NRM Education Focus Sites in 2013. 

There is hope that heavy rain earlier in the year has given a boost to a rare frog species in the APY Lands of outback South Australia.

That 'bit of bush' in the bottom corner or along the track may be more valuable than you think, with increasing evidence that insects provide a variety of in-crop benefits.

This wombat sure is a miracle girl. She was rescued on Sunday night, huddled in a ball by the side of the road outside a property that recently used machinery to fill in all of their wombat burrows.
