Abstract: Ten species of significant vertebrate pest in the Rangelands Cluster region are considered in this report. Predicted changes in abundance and distribution with climate change indicate a decrease in the abundance and/or distribution of five species within the region (cat, goat, pig, rabbit and cane toad) with a further three species predicted to have stable abundance and distribution (camel, horse, donkey). Only two species, red fox and dingo, may show increased abundance and/or distribution in response to climate change. Management recommendations are made for each species taking into account changes in distribution and abundance with climate change.
