IT’S OUR NATURE TO PROTECT
Together We Can Protect 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 A RAINFOREST
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. We believe Trees Are The Answer.
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.
RESCUE LOT 18 – PRISTINE AND ENDANGERED DAINTREE RAINFOREST
It’s not often that a single property leaves us all speechless – yet Lot 18 Cape Kimberley did just that. Almost 9 hectares of pristine and endangered rainforest, it is habitat to myriad rare and threatened creatures. With your help, we can protect it forever.
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!
THE LOT FORMERLY KNOWN AS 46 – KURRANJI BUBU IS BORN AS A NEW NATURE REFUGE
Big news! With Lot 46 successfully restored and protected, and well on its way to being folded back into the Daintree, the local Yalanji language committee granted Lot 46 the traditional name of Kurranji Bubu (Cassowary Land).

26 September is #WorldCassowaryDay! While the pandemic may have forced the cancellation of major events #WorldCassowaryDay2020 will not be stopped! Visit worldcassowaryday.org for details on how you can get involved.⠀
#FunFact: The name "Cassowary" is derived from the Papuan words kasu (“horned”) and weri (“head”) in reference to the distinctive ‘casque’ on the Cassowary’s head.⠀

#FunFact: For many years no one knew what the cassowaries 'distinctive helmet' was for, but in 2019 researchers at La Trobe University showed the cranial structure acts like a radiator or “thermal window” to help the large, flightless birds keep cool in hot weather.⠀

#FunFact: Not only are cassowaries critical to the survival of the rainforest because they spread seeds of unique rainforest trees, but by protecting their home, we protect the homes of many other unique and endangered animals including Tree Kangaroos, Spectacled Flying Foxes and Mahogany Gliders. Not to mention the extremely ancient plant families found nowhere else on Earth!⠀

🌳 Trees produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide. They also make us feel good! Studies indicate that being surrounded by trees can decrease your blood pressure, slow your heart rate and reduce stress levels. Visit our profile for the full image 😉 - courtesy of @MartinStringerPhotography 🙏 ⠀

“My favourite place is North Queensland. It has for a naturalist everything. It has an amazing rainforest which is quite unlike any other rainforest in the world. Not only does it have that but down on the coast it has the Great Barrier Reef. On top of that there’s terrific wine and food, so that’s the place for me. The fact is, if I wasn’t born in this country I would have loved to be born in Australia. There’s only one thing wrong with Australia: as far as I’m concerned, it’s too far away.” - Sir David Attenborough⠀
