(But there’s still time to donate to help nature)
We have amazing news! Thanks to the generosity of people like you, we have now purchased the Dodgey Downs property on Goreng-Noongar Country, southwest WA. That means we can start work to transform this property with a funny name into its natural glory and reconnect crucial wildlife corridors.
We’ll help bring back a place where the Ngoolark (Carnaby's Cockatoo) can sing, and the Noolbenger (Honey Possum) can find the sweetest nectar. Where Gnow (Malleefowl) can build their nests, and Western Pygmy Possums can find refuge.
This is a huge milestone for us at Bush Heritage, having the opportunity to increase our impact across another 762-hectares – and in a global biodiversity hotspot. It’s a win for the environment, and a win for every Australian who cares about protecting it.
Thank you so much to everyone who donated and supported our efforts - this isn’t possible without you.
Even though we’ve now purchased Dodgey Downs, there’s still time to donate to help us transform this property into a thriving nature reserve and support this kind of work across the continent. Every day, we’re on the ground observing nature’s call, healing wounded landscapes, and planting seeds for the future.
Your donation will not only enable work on Dodgey Downs, it will also go directly to our critical conservation work right around Australia – improving wildlife habitat, protecting endangered species, and scientific research that is crucial to protect nature into the future. It’s critical we do what we can to care for nature, because nature cares for us.
