LOT 41 IS A STUNNING EXAMPLE OF INTACT DAINTREE RAINFOREST

Because of you, it will be protected forever.

Thanks to your support, we have doubled the size of the protected area in the Cape Kimberley Wildlife Corridor.

The Daintree is one of the most significant ecosystems in the world. It is a living museum and a place of profound and unique beauty which we must protect and conserve. This region of the wet tropics contains some of the greatest biodiversity of flora, fauna and includes many of the most unique animals in the world.

Lot 41 Cape Tribulation Rd, Kimberley is a stunning example of intact Daintree rainforest… 

The 18.6 ha property is like being in a giant cathedral. It’s a place of spiritual connectivity. A place where you feel more in touch with your own nature—our true, spiritual nature—and in utter awe of nature’s beauty.

The previous owner of Lot 41, Tony, has lived here for over 20 years. Sadly, his wife Cheryll passed away in 2022.

For many years, Tony and Cheryll were working to make their property a nature refuge, however, with Cheryll’s passing, Tony came to us and wanted to ensure that the property is protected forever when, one day, he passes away.

Under the terms of the purchase, Tony will have the option of continuing to live on the property and be its custodian, effectively continuing the legacy of both Cheryll and himself.

We are truly humbled by this.

BY HELPING US TO PURCHASE THIS PROPERTY YOU HAVE DOUBLED THE AMOUNT OF CONSERVED LAND IN THE CAPE KIMBERLEY WILDLIFE CORRIDOR.

Lot 41 is ideally located right next to the National Park and is adjacent to other Rainforest Rescue properties in the Milky Pine Refuge, which is within the Cape Kimberley Wildlife Corridor. This purchase has further contributed to these properties and enhanced connectivity by expanding the refuge and wildlife corridor.

This purchase is history in the making, both in the significant capital involved, and how this biodiversity-rich property is a significant acquisition for the nature corridor and for the overall environmental protection of the Daintree.

Below is a map showing the existing corridor with Lot 41 outlined in aqua, Rainforest Rescue refuges in red, and other purchased properties in purple.

Thank you for helping us secure Lot 41 and expand the wildlife corridor.

PROTECTED – Lot 41 Cape Tribulation Rd

The Daintree Rainforest is both uniquely rich and incredibly diverse. It hosts 12 of the world`s 19 primitive flowering plant families, offering a living museum of evolutionary history. Beyond plants, this ancient rainforest shelters 30% of Australia`s frog, reptile, and marsupial species, 65% of bat and butterfly species, and 18% of bird species. ​⁠

The Daintree is a national treasure, and we believe it`s our responsibility to protect its unique species and habitats. You can play a vital role in rescuing and restoring rainforests 🌿.​⁠

❤️ Gunduy: Used by the Djiru people in the Mission Beach area. ​⁠
🖤 Gumbulgan: Known to the Jirrbal and Ma:Mu people of the Wet Tropics. ​⁠
💙 Kutani: The term used by the Kaanju Pama people of Cape York.⁠
❤️ Boondarra: Identified as the name used by the Djabugai and Tjapukai people in the Cairns, Port Douglas, Kuranda, and Mareeba areas. ​⁠
🖤 Wadthuuny: The term for cassowary on Kuuku Ya`u Country and Gudang Yadhaykenu Country. ​⁠

Listed as endangered, it is estimated that only about 4,600 Australian Southern Cassowaries remain in the wild.⁠

Shy by nature, they pose a threat only when defending their nests/chicks, when threatened, or if they’ve become accustomed to being fed by humans. They are in great need of our protection.⁠

The Daintree is a vitally important, and a wonderful part of Australia’s, and the world’s history. We’re committed to protecting the Daintree rainforest. We believe that It’s our duty to the planet and to the unique and significant species that exist here. ⁠

Check out our projects that are helping to protect and grow the Daintree:⁠
⁠🌳 `Protect a Rainforest` - ⁠purchasing rainforest blocks for conservation and protecting them forever, increasing connectivity and protecting biodiversity.⁠
🌳 `Plant a Rainforest` ⁠- replanting rainforest and re-establishing habitat for endemic plants and animals’. ⁠
🌳 `Propagate and Grow` - the largest native nursery in the Daintree, propagating and growing all the rainforest trees for our Daintree lowland restoration projects.⁠

#ForestFlora: In an exciting and vital conservation effort, at the end of last year we received a batch of Syzygium glenum seeds from the North Coast Regional Botanic Garden in Coffs Harbour @coffsharbourbotanicgarden 🌱. ⁠

This species, listed as endangered, is a rare gem in the plant world and holds a significant place in the delicate ecosystems of Australia’s rainforests. ⁠

Have you heard of Tassel-ferns (Phlegmariurus spp., Lycopodiaceae)?

These ancient epiphytes are the oldest known plants of their kind, with only 13 species in Australia — all classed as threatened.⁠

In November, Paul Donatiu, Project Manager of the Queensland Threatened Plant Network, and Dr. Ashley Field of the Australian Tropical Herbarium — a dedicated expert on Tassel-ferns — hosted an engaging workshop at Rainforest Rescue`s Native Nursery in Cow Bay 🌿.⁠

Tassel-ferns play a critical role in biodiversity, providing habitat and contributing to the ecological balance of rainforests. Unfortunately, these valuable plants are often illegally removed from their natural environment, threatening their survival and potentially introducing diseases that impact the genetic diversity of the remaining ferns.⁠

#ForestFlora: Have you seen the Yellow bridal veil (Phallus multicolor) 🍄👀? Or, perhaps you`ve smelt it 👃🤢?⁠

This #ForestFungi has a a foul-smelling, sticky spore mass known as a gelatinous gleba. This mimics carrion and attracts insects that help disperse the fungi`s spores. The smell is usually described as foetid, like rotting meat - they are, after all, part of the STINKhorn family!⁠

Cassowaries are known to eat the fruit of at least 238 species of which 149 are woody trees. 45 of these plants have large fruit that are mostly dispersed by the Southern Cassowary (Casuarius casuarius johnsonii) over long distances, making it a very special bird 💚.⁠

The Traditional Owners of the northern Queensland rainforest areas are the Kuku Yalanji People – with the Daintree Coast (and within that the Daintree Rainforest) being just one part of Eastern Kuku Yalanji country ❤️💛🖤⁠

Often referred to as the Rainforest People, the Kuku Yalanji people have lived in the area for more than 50,000 years.⁠

The Daintree Rainforest – and the area more broadly – is both culturally and spiritually significant to the traditional owners, with many places of spiritual significance:⁠

🟢 Wundu (Thornton Peak)⁠
🟢 Manjal Dimbi (Mount Demi)⁠
🟢 Wurrmbu (The Bluff)⁠
🟢 Kulki (Cape Tribulation)⁠

It`s International Day Of Forests and this years theme is `Forests and Food` 💚.⁠

Forests are pillars of global food security and nutrition, they are also the livelihoods of millions of families. They provide food and energy, support agriculture, regulate climate, conserve biodiversity, and supply freshwater to more than 85% of the worlds major cities. ⁠

We encourage you to take a little moment today and let Rainforest Rescue Ambassador Jasmine Carey be your guide though this magical rainforest: www.rainforestrescue.org.au/lost-in-the-rainforest-with-jasmine-carey (link in bio) 🌴🐛🐍.⁠

The Daintree rainforest contains an almost complete record of the evolution of plant life on Earth and has more ancient families of flowering plants than anywhere else in the world, including the entire Amazon jungle 🌳🌿🌼. ⁠

Approximately half of the rainforest`s lowlands has been cleared since European settlement: www.rainforestrescue.org.au/history-of-development-in-the-daintree 😲. ⁠

The remaining rainforest is of exceptionally high biodiversity and conservation value: www.rainforestrescue.org.au/conservation-value-of-the-daintree 💚.⁠
