Bogong Moth found on property

The Grounds and Maintenance Team have found a population of Bogong Moths residing on campus. Rent free, as it seems.

Zoo's Victoria are tracking the migration of this particular moth species as they are a main, post hibernation, food source for the once, near extinct, Mountain Pygmy-Possum.

You can see pictures of St Joseph's Bogong Moth population on Zoo's Victoria moth tracker map, here;
