Habitat Restoration and Revegetation on Girringun Country

The project aims to target environmentally and culturally significant areas which are degraded and have been identified by Traditional Owners of the Girringun Region. The team will work closely with the Traditional Owners of each site. The sites selected are important wetland systems and coastal foreshores which connect with the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. These wetland sites are also used as corridors by endangered species such as the Southern Cassowary and the endemic Mahogany Glider. The team will work on a number of sites within the Girringun region, including the Wongaling Creek system in Mission Beach area, Warrami Waterhole and Jingalingnu Beach in the Tully-Murray Rivers Catchment area.
