Ecosystem Engineer Bake-Off

The Threatened Species Bake Off is an invitation to Australians to bake a dessert in the shape of a threatened species to commemorate Threatened Species Day on 7th September. 

The Bake Off aims to build awareness in the community about Australia’s remarkable and unique threatened wildlife, and there are awards for individuals, schools and groups. 

This year’s Bake Off will focus on ecosystem engineers and the important role they play in Australia’s terrestrial and aquatic environments. 

What is an ecosystems engineer???

An ecosystem engineer is any animal or plant that modifies, maintains, improves, or creates habitat.
