Wildlife Surrounds

Wildlife Surrounds is a wildlife conservation and education organisation. Located on a rural property in Mount Surround, North Queensland, Wildlife Surrounds is comprised of 40 acres of moist to dry eucalypt woodlands. The property adjoins Bowling Green Bay National Park and is home to an abundance of wild native flora and fauna, including Orchids, Cycads, Northern Quolls, and Red-tailed Black cockatoos. Wildlife Surrounds goals are to conserve and protect the local biome in the following ways- Implement practical local conservation initiatives to create a healthier, more resilient ecosystem for the benefit of native flora and fauna species- Educate people on the importance of environmental conservation through providing opportunities for meaningful engagement in environmental conservation projects, and to experience local native wildlife firsthand (public exhibition/wildlife shows, regular field days, workshops, working bees etc)- Conduct research primarily aimed towards developing sustainable relationships between humans and the local environment (i.e. farmers, and private landholders). Moreover, possible implementation of captive breeding programs for key threatened/endangered species when the organisation is established.
