        4. Manage and monitor introduced predators
4.1     Predator control
4.1.1   Undertake predator management consistent with the Adaptive Management Predator Experiment project, including treatment and control sites.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                This includes monitoring changes in predator abundance/activity using the same approach as the Adaptive Management Predator Experiment (AMPE) which uses 8 to 10 camera traps in an array (Hauser et al. 2019; van Hespen et al. 2019).

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 New sites that have not had historical baiting should be monitored under the Adaptive Management Predator Experiment.
4.1.2   Undertake control of introduced predators (particularly foxes and cats) where Malleefowl populations show decline and predation is a likely explanation of decline.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Draw on information from relevant Government advisory agencies,  Adaptive Management Predator Experiment and other studies to inform implementation of this action. In particular, revise methods to those shown to be effective as a result of the AMPE.

4.1.3   Record all information relating to predator control in Malleefowl habitat areas and make the information easily available to the National Malleefowl Recovery Team.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Information required includes bait type, density, scale, deployment protocols, and frequency and timing.

4.1.4   Analyse data available on the relationship between predation rates from foxes and cats and habitat.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Identify if Malleefowl are more susceptible to predation in degraded habitat by herbivores.
