Although surrounded by the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, the Coastal Lowland Tropical Rainforest from the Daintree River to Cape Tribulation remain unprotected and endangered. These rainforests are of international conservation importance as one of the most significant regional ecosystems in the world.
The Daintree rainforests are critical habitat for the endangered Cassowary. They are also vital habitat for the primitive Musky Rat-kangaroo, the rare Bennett's Tree Kangaroo, endangered Spotted-tailed Quoll and a myriad of smaller creatures little known to science
Rainforest Rescue is a not for profit organisation committed to saving our rainforests for current and future generations.
Rainforest Rescue creates opportunities for individuals, families, organisations and businesses to become involved in successful projects that protect and restore our dwindling rainforests.
Projects involve rainforest restoration, research aimed at improving rainforest restoration and conservation, and the purchase and ongoing management of high conservation value rainforests.
