At times we will need to go off the walking track into the bush to collect the scats. Some areas of the bush will be quite dense and there is a high snake risk so a high level of caution and fitness is required if going off the track. Volunteer sessions are open to all levels of fitness and to children. There is no maximum number of attendees
