(1)–(3) I thank the member for the question. I will have to take some of that question on notice, given that I do not know the exact number off the top of my head. I have received follow-up advice on the translocation across all areas. I understand that a couple of animals have died as a result of predation; however, certainly not all of them. I will undertake to get more information for the member.
