Spotter Catcher

A Spotter Catcher tracks down wildlife before land clearing takes place. You’ll catch identified animals and relocate them to a suitable place. Spotter Catchers may use tracking strategies to find any species present in a designated area and might use traps to catch the animals when required. You’ll then transport them to an appropriate setting for release.

Spotter Catchers need to be comfortable working with a range of native wildlife. You’ll need to be ready for physical work and willing to work outdoors in all sorts of weather conditions. Spotter Catchers often work with a larger team but you might also work on your own when required. You’ll need to be able to follow directions and work with correct procedures.
