Project Ninox

Ninox Systems Pty Ltd develops habitat and monitoring solutions to support biodiversity and the recovery of threatened species. The Australian company focuses on the challenges facing tree-dwelling wildlife, including the loss of old-growth forests and tree hollows caused by land clearing, as well as worsening habitat fragmentation. Its Project Ninox initiative combines nest boxes with a monitoring system designed to provide alternative habitat and measure the impact of conservation efforts.

Ninox Systems offers nest box installation and wildlife monitoring services, with projects and partnerships spanning rehabilitation sites, fauna sanctuaries and community landcare groups. Examples named on its website include Westgate Park in Melbourne, Baroon Pocket Fauna Sanctuary in Queensland, and the Wonyip Landcare Group. The company also undertakes corporate training and public awareness activities. Its monitoring approach uses emerging, low-cost technologies and protocols such as LoRaWAN, which a client notes can help reduce the costs of long-term wildlife monitoring programs. Through practical habitat support, measurement and engagement, Ninox Systems aims to help improve conditions for Australian arboreal species.
