Hello Michael Moss,
Thank you for reaching out to the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action with your question regarding eDNA testing.
I have confirmed with the Arthur Rylah Institute’s research scientists who employ these techniques and have confirmed that while they use eDNA testing methods, they do not screen for Tasmanian Tiger DNA.
Please reach out if you have any further questions.
Kind regards,
Hayley (DEECA)
