Tree guards made of wire, plastic mesh, plastic film and rigid plastic tubing were examined for their ability to prevent browsing by captive swamp wallabies. All plastic mesh guards were ineffective as were all guards less than 1.0 m high other than rigid plastic tubes. Wire mesh guards reduced browsing but installation was difficult and laborious.
