12 Acknowledgements<br />

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the construction of this manual. I am sincerely<br />

grateful for all your input and your support. I would especially like to thank:<br />

Antonio Polak - Sydney Wildlife World<br />

I would like to thank Antonio for taking the time to show me the phasmid set up at Sydney<br />

Wildlife World and for his contributions to information on housing and general care of the goliath<br />

stick insect. Not only was he prepared to help me fill in some of the blanks but he also looked<br />

over the first complete draft and made some very constructive suggestions on some final touch<br />

ups.<br />

Elizabeth Jefferys - University of Sydney<br />

I would like to Liz for her assistance in finding suitable literature that was not easily available and<br />

for contributions to some of the information within the husbandry manual itself. I would also like<br />

to thank Liz for taking the time to proof read the final husbandry manual.<br />

Jacki Salkeld - Richmond TAFE NSW<br />

I would like to thank Jacki for providing several juvenile goliath stick insects for me to work with.<br />

Jacki also taught me appropriate methods of capture and restraint for the goliath stick insect and<br />

provided me with information on suitable care of phasmid eggs.<br />

Peter Miller - Author of ‘A Guide to <strong>Stick</strong> <strong>Insect</strong>s of Australia’<br />

I would like to thank Peter for giving permission to use the distribution map for the goliath stick<br />

insect from the previously mentioned document.<br />
