DRB Nats presents Dani Ryder speaking about Australian Wildlife Conservancy
Australian Wildlife Conservancy (AWC) is the largest private owner of land for conservation in Australia, protecting endangered wildlife across more than 6.5 million hectares in iconic regions such as the Kimberley, Cape York, Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre and the Top End. Recognising that ‘business as usual’ for conservation in Australia will mean additional extinctions, AWC is developing and implementing a new model for conservation. AWC protects a very high proportion of Australia’s terrestrial biodiversity including 72% of all mammal species, 88% of all bird species and over 54% of all reptile and frog species. We protect more species – and more threatened species – than any other non-government conservation organisation in Australia.
