Project Eden, Shark Bay World Heritage Area


Project Eden is a conservation project that aims to re-establish endangered species on the Peron Peninsula by keeping out feral predators. A 3.4km fence was built across a narrow section of the peninsula and out into the waters, to keep the unwanted feral, predominantly foxes, cats, goats and rabbits.
