Jock marshal reserve

The Jock Marshal Reserve (JMR) at the Monash Clayton campus is a three-hectare biodiverse ecological facility managed by the JMR Management Committee within the School of Biological Sciences. A cornerstone for environmental education and research at Monash University, the JMR contains the highest concentration of biodiversity values within the University, providing valuable refuge for skinks, possums, amphibians and many native bird species, while also attracting some unwanted introduced species such as foxes.

Since 2021, management of these species has been guided by the Jock Marshall Reserve Management Plan and the Jock Marshall Reserve Operational Plan.
