Souther Brown Bandicoot - Wildlife Donation Australia - FNPW

Bandicoot SuperHighway Project

The Southern Brown Bandicoot (Isoodon obesulus) is facing extinction due to loss of habitat, encroachment of human development and predation from introduced foxes and cats. But there is hope. The Bandicoot Superhighway Project, a community-driven effort to protect these unique creatures, is restoring their habitat, recording new sightings, and strengthening our connection to nature.

Yarrahapinni Wetlands Restoration

In New South Wales’ Mid North Coast, the Yarrahapinni Wetlands are crucial to the Macleay River catchment. Flood mitigation had caused ecological damage, but restoration to the ecosystem has been done by removing floodgates and the levee wall, reintroducing tidal flows, and conducting a Cultural Heritage Assessment.
