Recovery
  In this Section of the Recovery Plan we present our shared vision for the Recovery of Tjakura, the 10-year goal of this Recovery Plan, and the specific conservation objectives and performance criteria that can be measured to assess our progress towards achieving
  this goal.
  Our Shared Vision:
  "In 2050 Tjakura are safe on country, babies are born and survive, Rangers are caring for them, under the guidance of Elders, with the support of the broader community. Our cultural connection to Tjakura is strong and sustainable harvesting is possible because populations are healthy, abundant and genetically diverse, thriving in all the subpopulations they were known from in 2022."
  Overall Goal
  In 2032 the cultural significance of Tjakura is well known and celebrated, and it is no longer classified as Vulnerable to extinction because the global population continues to increase beyond 10,000 mature individuals, and neither the range or number of known subpopulations are declining because sites are being actively managed by motivated Rangers and other land managers.
  Progress towards this goal will be measured using performance criteria associated with two specific Conservation Objectives and one Cultural Objective:

  Conservation Objectives (and performance criteria)
    ■  The range of the Tjakura remains stable

     –  PC1: The Extent of Occurrence (EoO) in 2032 is at least equal to the EoO in 2023
     –  PC2: In 2033 Tjakura occupy all 20 places they were known from in 2023
    ■  The size of the Tjakura population is growing

     –  PC3: From 2023- 2033 there is an ongoing increasing trend in the number of known active burrows across the range
     –  PC4: The estimated number of active burrows across the range exceeds 10,000

  We have used number of active burrows as a surrogate for number of mature individuals. Although burrows may be occupied by 1-10 individuals, each burrow normally only contains 1 or 2 mature animals (e.g., a male who has just
