KURRANJI BUBU – LOT 46

In 2010 we purchased an abandoned palm oil plantation at Lot 46 Cape Tribulation Rd & began restoring it. In 2021 the local Yalanji language committee granted Lot 46 the traditional name of Kurranji Bubu (Cassowary Land) and it is now a protected Nature Refuge.

It's #WorldParrotDay 🦜🦜🦜.

At just 14cm long from beak to tail, the Double-eyed fig parrot (Cyclopsitta diophthalma) is a little critter with a large head and gorgeous colours on its face, often found in the Daintree Rainforest (and even in Northern New South Wales). Have you seen one 'in the wild' 👀? 

We love Double-eyed fig parrots, especially because they are seed dispensers, helping us reforest the Daintree.

We are committed to planting a LOT more native trees, helping restore and protect the rainforest. 

Donate to support the native nursery 🔗👆. 

And/or join us for our next Tree Planting Day. More details coming soon.

#CritterCorner: The Bennett’s Tree Kangaroo (𝐷𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑟𝑜𝑙𝑎𝑔𝑢𝑠 𝑏𝑒𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑡𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑛𝑢𝑠) is the larger of the two tree-kangaroos endemic to Australia.

They are endemic to Wet Tropics rainforest in Far north Qld north of the Daintree River, found in the canopy and classified as Near Threatened (NT) on the IUCN Red List.

Their maximum weight is between 11-14kg when mature, body length ranges from 690–760mm and tail length can be 740–840mm long.

Threats to these magnificent creatures include habitat loss and fragmentation resulting in tree-kangaroos being exposed to predators, and road traffic.

Bennett’s Tree Kangaroo are folivores (i.e. leaf-eater) – eating mostly leaves, fruit or flower off potentially more than 33 different rainforest plant species. This is why the protection of the rainforest in the Daintree is so important.

Have you spotted a Bennett's tree-kangaroo on your Daintree visits?

Have you seen Phallus multicolor reveal its veil 🍄?

Commonly referred to as Yellow Netted Stinkhorn or Yellow Bridal Veil, a species of fungus in the family Phallaceae or “stinkhorns” has a cone or bell-shaped cap on a stalk and a delicate “lace skirt” (indusium) that hangs from beneath the cap almost reaching the ground.

This time lapse was taken over the period of only a couple of hours.

This Forest Fungi can be found within the leaf litter on the Rainforest floors of Australia, Sumatra, Guam, Papua New Guinea, Java, Borneo, Tobago, Zaire, Hawaii and New Caledonia.They are common in Queensland and can be found all year round.

Today's International Day of Plant Health 💚.

Plants make up 80% of the food we eat and 98% of the oxygen we breathe, yet they are under threat. This is why today (and every day!) we want to celebrate #IDPH to help raise global awareness on how protecting plant health can help end hunger, reduce poverty, protect biodiversity and the environment, and boost economic development.

We are committed to protecting Daintree Rainforest and working towards increasing tree production in the Daintree by over 1000%, breathing life into new restoration projects that will see the size of the Daintree increase and its resilience grow 💚.

Join the movement - become a Rainforest Guardian 💚.
