Translocation of the Eastern Bristlebird; radio-tracking post-release movements

Radio-tracking of Eastern Bristlebirds in the first three weeks following translocation. Eastern Bristlebirds are a small endangered passerine that occupy dense, low fire-prone vegetation. The translocation was undertaken as part of recovery efforts to re-establish the species in previously occupied habitat.
