Top Highlights
There were 1,623 responses in total – 847 from New South Wales, 692 from Queensland, and 84 from Victoria.
Most residents are aware of their local flying-fox camp, and many are bothered by mess and smell associated with the bats, and are also concerned about potential disease risks.
Many of the survey respondents spent the majority of their week around their homes, which is why they may feel heavily impacted.
Overall, residents appear to have low trust in local government agencies and their abilities to manage flying-fox camps.
