Skyline Tier: Tasmania’s Largest Restoration Project Reviving 2,000ha of Native Forest – A Conversation with Todd Dudley

In this episode I am joined by Todd Dudley. Todd is the President of the North East Bioregional Network in Tasmania and he has been working as a Bush Regenerator in Australia for 40 years. Todd was a key initiator of the Skyline Tier Restoration Project, which is successfully applying Assisted Natural Regeneration techniques to restore native forest across 2000 ha of radiata pine clear fells in north-eastern Tasmania. Todd was very generous giving his time to speak on the Nature Conversations podcast and who better to discuss landscape-scale restoration in Tasmania with than Todd?! 

I hope you enjoy this episode!
