Australasian Gannet ( Morus serrator )

Point Danger (Portland) in the south west part of Victoria is home to a mainland colony of seabirds - Australasian Gannets.
Maremma dogs have been used to guard the colony, discouraging predation by foxes and thus giving the colony a chance to breed and thrive.
