IT’S OUR NATURE TO PROTECT
Together We Are Protecting Rainforests Forever
Rainforests are under constant threat from development and climate change. Protecting and restoring rainforests is our business. Join Us!
How YOU can help
Save Rainforests
Rainforests support around HALF of all land-based species of plants and animals on Earth. Structurally complex, rainforests are essential to both animals and humans.
PLANT a rainforest
Many rainforests are disappearing with 65,000 hectares cleared or significantly de-graded every single day! Restoration is possible – and effective!
PROTECT WILDLIFE
We are losing the rich diversity of the rainforests. Many of these irreplaceable animal and plant species are now under threat and need our help to survive into the future.
DONATE NOW
When you give generously, you become part of a committed team of individuals who collectively are helping to preserve some of the most biodiverse habitats and the species that live within them on this planet. Become a Rainforest Rescuer today!
LATEST RESCUE
It’s official: Lot 24 Cape Tribulation Road is now part of the Rainforest Rescue portfolio of protection. YOU did this and we can’t thank you enough.
Lot 24 Cape Tribulation Rd will now help extend the reach of the Cape Kimberley Wildlife Corridor. This rescue will serve to provide protected habitat which supports the unique and endangered plants and animals of the Daintree Rainforest.
Huge kudos and huge thanks to all of you who helped make this latest rescue possible – this is fantastic!

#CritterCorner - Just wanted to drop by and introduce myself. I'm a Forest Kingfisher (Todiramphus macleayii), also known as the Macleay's Kingfishers, Blue Kingfishers, or Tree Kingfishers.⠀
We have beautiful blue wings, tail and head with a white breast, nape and abdomen, a white patch in front of the eyes and a black band stretching from the bill through the eyes. Our females are distinguished by a blue rather than white nape. We're normally about 21.5 - 25.5 cm when fully grown.⠀
Our favourite foods are invertebrates (e.g. beetles, bugs, grasshoppers, spiders, and worms) as well as small frogs and lizards. You can find us in coastal Eastern and Northern Australia, as well as Indonesia and New Guinea.⠀

#CritterCorner - Good day! For those of you who haven't seen my kind before, I am an Azure Kingfisher (Ceyx azureus).⠀
We are just one of many types of Kingfishers found in the Daintree. We are easily identified by our deep blue feathers, distinct white spots on the sides of our necks, some blue-violet streaks on breast and flanks and red feet with only two forward toes.⠀
Our habitat includes creek banks, swamps, lakes,, tidal estuaries and mangroves. Our favourite foods are freshwater yabbies and small fish.⠀
If you want to spot one of us in the wild you'll need to head to the rainforests of Australia, Indonesia, or New Guinea.⠀

Here's some #FunFacts about why the Daintree Rainforest is so special, courtesy of our friends at @DaintreeDiscovery 🙏⠀
🌳 The Daintree Rainforest is estimated to be 180 million years old⠀
🌳 This tropical rainforest ecosystem is one of the most complex on earth. Its plant diversity and structural complexity is unrivalled on the Australian continent and represents the origins of our more familiar ‘Australian’ flora⠀
🌳 From a total of 19 primitive flowering plant families on Earth, 12 families are represented in the Daintree region making the highest concentration of these plants worldwide⠀
🌳 This natural wonder is home to thousands of species of birds and other wildlife including 30% of Australia’s frog, reptile and marsupial species in Australia, 65% of the country’s bat and butterfly species as well as 18% of all bird species and 12,000 insect species!⠀
🌳 The Kuku Yalanji people have lived in this area for thousands of years and their songs and legends continue to give special meaning to this landscape today⠀

“The forest is a peculiar organism of unlimited kindness and benevolence that makes no demands for its sustenance and extends generously the products of its life activity; it affords protection to all beings, offering shade even to the axe-man who destroys it.”⠀

“Collaboration is key and working together in two vastly different environments that impact each other and are intricately connected is really, really important. So, get out there – plant a tree, go visit the reef, do all the great things – get involved.”⠀
