Project Habitat
We have partnered with Taronga Zoo through a grant from Boeing to restore and reconnect habitat for Squirrel Gliders in Copperhania Nature Reserve.
Restoring habitat for Squirrel Gliders
To restore habitat for Squirrel Gliders in Copperhania Nature Reserve we have partnered with Taronga Zoo through their Project Habitat program sponsored by Boeing Australia.
As part of Boeing’s sponsorship, the Taronga Zoomobile headed to Trunkey Creek to take part in GER’s Schools Biodiversity Day on 11 September 2015, along with representatives from Local Land Services, National Parks and Wildlife and the Office of Environment and Heritage. The day was aimed at teaching school kids about local plants, animals and insects and inspiring the kids to become custodians for their local bushland. Read more.
Upcoming events
A community tree planting day is being planned for early 2016, along with various other community awareness activities. As further details become available regarding these events, this site will be updated accordingly.
How you can help
Attend our tree planting day which will be held in early 2016. This promises to be a fulfilling and worthwhile day with the opportunity to revegetate bushland whilst meeting and learning about some of Taronga’s friendly native animals! Please check this page regularly for updates.
Attend an event
K2W runs a series of events throughout the year to raise awareness, engage local communities and build landholder capacity.
