The Trapdoor Tally is a citizen science survey run by Wirambi Landcare, with support from the DBCA Swan Region. Tally focuses on trapdoor species with open burrows (no lid), that are more easily seen. A 20-minute area search method was used, with the observer walking slowly, looking at the ground, recording any burrows seen (usually within 2m of the observer). A metric ruler is used to measure the diameter of a sub-sample of burrows. Note: to access the data, select the data source link located on the right-hand side.
