Why Fauna Spotters
We're licensed under Queensland Department of Environment and Science rehabilitation permits and hold equivalent authorities across other states. Every crew member has been in the field, on real Tier 1 and Tier 2 sites, and knows what a clearing supervisor actually needs.
We publish transparent rates online. You can generate a compliant, itemised quote yourself — 24 hours a day — instead of waiting three business days for an emailed proposal.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Fauna Spotter Catcher?
A Fauna Spotter Catcher (FSC) is a licensed wildlife handler who works alongside vegetation-clearing, dewatering and earthworks crews. Their job is to locate, safely capture and relocate native fauna before and during works so the project stays compliant with state and federal wildlife legislation.
Do you cover projects outside Queensland?
Yes. Fauna Spotters mobilises crews Australia-wide — every state and territory, including remote resources and renewables sites — on DIDO/FIFO rosters.
How fast can you get a crew to site?
For metro and regional South East Queensland and the eastern seaboard we can typically mobilise within 48 hours. Remote and multi-week bookings should be scheduled at least a week ahead so the correct roster and permits are in place.
Can I get a quote without a phone call?
Yes. Our online quote form generates an itemised, GST-inclusive quote in under two minutes. You'll receive an emailed PDF plus a booking link to lock the crew in.
What licences do your Fauna Spotter Catchers hold?
All FSCs operate under the appropriate Rehabilitation Permit (Spotter Catcher) in Queensland and equivalent scientific/handling licences interstate. Copies of licences, insurance and safety documentation are supplied with every quote on request.
