A$19m raised to buy Queensland cattle station for conservation, linking rainforest and reef headwaters

Bush Heritage has raised over $19m in private donations to purchase Wooroora station, a 20,000-hectare cattle property in far north Queensland that connects wet tropics rainforest and savanna woodland, and contains headwaters flowing to the Great Barrier Reef. The acquisition, expected by Christmas, would protect habitat for 12 endangered species. This is a notable conservation land purchase, though its market impact is minimal.
