THREATENED SPECIES

PROTECTING OUR SPECIES FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS

The Yarram Yarram Landcare Network (YYLN) spans approximately 118,000 hectares stretching from the temperate rainforests of the Strzelecki Ranges to the Ramsar-listed wetlands of Corner Inlet and Nooramunga Marine and Coastal Park, encompassing the Giffard Plain, along the Ninety Mile Beach to Seaspray. From mountain to sea, we have 17 different Environmental Vegetation Classes (EVCs) which are currently home to over 39 threatened to
critically endangered species (Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 Threatened List 2022). Our Network has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to protect these species for future generations.  Help us make a difference now.
