Wildlife Preservation Clarence Valley is dedicated to preserving wildlife and ecosystems in the Clarence Valley.
We act on a local scale as a safe-ownership entity for land to be preserved in perpetuity and managed for its natural values.
By bringing community, science and culture together, we aim to ensure a rich and diverse future for the next generations.
Help Us Save Threatened Species Habitat
Carl’s Cockatoo Corridor is Gulmarrad’s last stronghold for the nationally Vulnerable listed Glossy Black Cockatoos. In addition to being a critically important feeding and roosting ground for these marvellous birds, it is a corridor for our Coastal Emus and refuge for Rufous Bettongs, Feather-Tail Gliders and Squirrel Gliders to name a few. The old-growth, hollow-bearing trees and densely diverse flora are some of the last in the region.
In a time of drastic loss of biodiversity, we play a vitally important role in the
survival of our beloved wildlife, as they do in ours.
