1. NAME OF KEY THREATENING PROCESS
^Fa^t^alⁱⁿ^j^u^ry^t^o^mariⁿ^e^mam^m^al^s^,^r^e^p^til^e^s^,^an^d^o^t^h^e^r^large^m^ariⁿ^e^s^p^e^ci^e^s^f^r^o^m^b^o^a^t^s^trⁱ^ke
2. CRITERIA UNDER WHICH THE KEY THREATENING PROCESS IS ELIGIBLE FOR LISTING Please mark the boxes that apply by clicking them with your mouse. The process could be eligible under one or all three criteria.
Criterion A Criterion B Criterion C	Evidence that the threatening process could cause a native species or ecological community to become eligible for listing in any category, other than conservation dependent. Evidence that the threatening process could cause a listed threatened species or ecological community to become eligible for listing in another category representing a higher degree of endangerment. Evidence that the threatening process adversely affects two or more listed threatened species (other than conservation dependent species) or two or more listed threatened ecological communities.
3. CONSERVATION THEME: Is the current conservation theme ‘terrestrial and marine flora and fauna that would benefit from national listing’ relevant to this key threatening process? If so, explain how.
^Y^e^s^.^Bo^a^t^s^tri^ke^sⁱ^m^p^act^p^o^pu^la^t^ioⁿ^s^o^f^s^pe^ci^e^s^th^at^m^a^y^b^e^come^th^r^e^a^t^eⁿ^e^d^a^s^{a r}^e^s^u^lt,^a^s^w^e^ll^a^s^s^e^ve^ral^th^at^a^re already listed as threatened and/or migratory species under the EPBC Act and various pieces of state/territory legislation. Comprehensive analysis of the issue will lead to effective conservation measures being implemented, and lessen the occurrence and thus detrimental effects of fatal boat strikes on these species. Furthermore, the widespread national extent of the nominated Key Threatening Process means that individual state/territory listings would not be as appropriate or effective as protection afforded at the federal level.
