Mulloon Catchment Bell Frog Habitat Recreation Project: Stage 1

Once a landscape of interconnected wetland systems, Mulloon Creek now bears eroded gullies. Working collaboratively, this project will recreate wetland ecosystems, providing renewed habitat for threatened native flora and fauna. Aligning with protecting and conserving matters of national environmental significance (including the Green and Golden Bell Frog and the Yellow Spotted Bell Frog), objectives include: 1) improving creek condition and functionality (habitat quality, water quality and quantity, water flow); and 2) re-vegetating aquatic and terrestrial areas (including gullies and tributaries), creating wildlife corridors and vegetation linkages. Project activities link to all priority areas of Australia’s Biodiversity Conservation Strategy 2010-2030, helping to fulfil Australia’s obligations under the Convention on Biological Diversity.穆伦溪（Mulloon Creek）曾是一片由相互连通的湿地系统构成的地貌，如今却遍布侵蚀形成的沟壑。本项目将通过协同合作，重建湿地生态系统，为受威胁的本土动植物提供全新栖息地。本项目契合对具有国家环境重要性的事项的保护与保育目标（涵盖绿金铃蛙（Green and Golden Bell Frog）与黄纹铃蛙（Yellow Spotted Bell Frog）），具体目标包括：1）改善溪流水体状况与生态功能（涵盖栖息地质量、水质与水量、水流情况）；2）对水生及陆地区域（包括沟壑与支流）进行植被修复，构建野生动物廊道与植被连接带。本项目的各项活动与《2010-2030年澳大利亚生物多样性保护战略（Australia’s Biodiversity Conservation Strategy 2010-2030）》的所有优先领域相契合，助力澳大利亚履行《生物多样性公约（Convention on Biological Diversity）》项下的义务。
