Bush Heritage Australia buys land to create conservation reserves. It also partners with Aboriginal groups and other land owners to achieve environmental outcomes on private properties. Here are a few examples of the work we support:

Saving endangered species

THOUGHT TO BE EXTINCT FOR 100 YEARS
Our research at Pullen Pullen reserve in Queensland has helped locate more populations of the elusive Night Parrot. More >>

Aboriginal partnerships

WORKING WITH TRADITIONAL OWNERS
Whenever Bush Heritage Australia buys land, it seeks to engage with the Traditional Owners. It also invests in partnering with Aboriginal groups who are themselves landowners – often of vast estates. More >>

Climate change

REVEGETATING FOR HOTTER CLIMATE
On several of our reserves we have sourced different provenances of existing vegetation from further north, which are better suited to changing climate. More >>

Reviving a river

PLANTING 10,000 TREES PER YEAR
A partnership on the Murrumbidgee River, running through Scottsdale Reserve, is demonstrating ways to support native fish. More >>

Partnering with farmers

CONSERVATION ON PRIVATE LAND
We have partnered with pastoralists in Tasmania to support environmental outcomes on private farmland. More >>

Tipping the balance to nature

LONG-TERM ECOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT
We manage our land really intensively for the first 10 years or so, intensively managing weeds and introduced species, tipping the balance in favor of natives. More >>
