Help AWC to protect the Artesian Range and its threatened wildlife

The Artesian Range: a refuge for the Kimberley's endangered wildlife

 

The Artesian Range is a "lost world" which provides refuge for some of Australia's rarest mammals, including a suite of animals found only in pockets of the north Kimberley.

You can help protect the Artesian Range and its wildlife forever

In order to secure the Artesian Range, AWC has brokered the acquisition of the Charnley River Pastoral Station by a supporter of AWC. A section of the station has now become the Artesian Range Wildlife Sanctuary (see map under Property Profile), with management responsibility for that section formally delegated to AWC. This is a ground-breaking new model for conservation developed by AWC to protect one of Australia's most ecologically significant regions.

You can help protect forever one of Australia's last great wildlife havens

The Artesian Range protects a unique assemblage of Kimberley mammals, birds and other fauna and flora. However, to deliver effective conservation for this biological treasure, we urgently need to establish a remote operations base and implement key tasks such as fire management and feral animal control.

Donate now to help protect the Artesian Range and its wildlife forever.

 

Your tax deductible gift to the Artesian Range will be matched!

 

You can help protect the Northern Quoll, the Wyulda, the Golden-backed Tree-rat, the Monjon, the Black Grasswren and a host of other declining species by making a tax deductible gift to support the Artesian Range. Funds are urgently required to purchase equipment, support land management staff and ecologists, establish a field station and pay for core operational costs.

Please help protect this unique place and its wildlife... perhaps the only place in Australia which has not yet been touched by our extinction crisis. Your support will ensure at least a small part of Australia - a lost world in the Kimberley - remains intact, largely as it was 200 years ago.

Every donation will be matched by a generous AWC supporter. In addition, all donations of $300 or more, and all monthly pledges of $35 or more, will be acknowledged on a special plaque that will be erected at the Artesian Range field base.
