Donate today to protect threatened wildlife and their homes!
It takes just a few hours to clear a hectare of forest that took decades to grow. That’s a hectare of wildlife homes effectively exterminated.
Habitat destruction, such as deforestation, is one of the leading causes of wildlife extinctions.
Queensland continues to record the highest land-clearing rate in Australia, with more than 400,000 hectares destroyed in 2019-20. Of the amount cleared more than 50% was older than 15 years, with the more mature forests often rich with wildlife, providing homes for threatened species.
80% of Queensland’s threatened species live in forests and woodlands.
This shocking level of clearing comes as Queensland populations of two forest-dependent species, koalas and greater gliders, were both uplisted to endangered with extinction last year.
It’s time to Keep Our WILD Alive!
Wildlife Queensland continues to fight for our wildlife and habitats by campaigning for diligent policing of existing environmental laws and the introduction of stronger laws. Out in the field, we continue to protect and conserve wildlife species, including revegetating vital wildlife habitat and installing nest box homes for hollow-dependent species, such as the greater glider, in areas with limited hollow-bearing trees.
But we need your help to ensure that threatened species are given the chance to survive and that other species never find themselves on the threatened list.
If we don’t act now, it may be too late. Please give generously before 30 June to help us to continue protecting and conserving Queensland’s threatened native wildlife.
Together, we can make a difference. Please donate today to help Keep Our WILD Alive.
