This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to step inside mainland Australia’s largest feral predator-free area. Because of this program, the greater bilby, numbat, brush-tailed bettong and other threatened wildlife now live in safety in Mallee Cliffs National Park.
Explore the majestic old growth Mallee woodlands. Discover how Australian Wildlife Conservancy (AWC) and NSW National Parks are successfully re-establishing wild self-sustaining populations of threatened mammals in one of the most important nature reserves in the Murray-Darling basin. Enjoy the chance to meet AWC's dedicated field ecologists and land managers. You’ll hear first-hand about their work delivering this important conservation program in far-western New South Wales.
If you have a UHF radio, bring it along. It's also a good idea to bring some camp chairs so you can enjoy lunch and the presentations in comfort.
