Project summary
The Rainforest Restoration to part complete a corridor between Tumoulin and Maalan National Parks Project is a 16-year, $1.41 million collaboration between the Queensland Government and Emerald Forest Land Pty Limited as trustee for the Emerald Forest Land Trust. The project aims to contribute to the restoration of a priority wildlife corridor between Tumoulin and Maalan National Parks on the Southern Atherton Tablelands. This will involve the planting of 75,000 trees over 22 hectares of historically cleared rainforest. The project will benefit a range of threatened species including Cassowary, Spotted-tail Quoll, Lemuroid Ringtail Possum, and a number of threatened rainforest frog species.
