环保组织 Bush Heritage Australia 已通过私人捐赠筹集超过1900万澳元，计划购买位于昆士兰州远北部的 Wooroora 牧场以实施生态保护 1。该地块面积超过20,000公顷，地理位置处于凯恩斯西南约100公里处，毗邻湿热带世界遗产雨林和大堡礁水源区 1。这片土地被视为具有极高生态价值，不仅连接了湿润硬叶林与稀树草原林地，还包含12种濒危物种的栖息地 1。
此次收购的目标是在圣诞节前完成交易，并将新购得的 Wooroora 牧场与该组织现有的 Yourka Reserve（面积43,575公顷）合并管理 1。Wooroora 牧场所在区域被认定为原住民 Jirrbal 人民的传统土地 1。
Bush Heritage Australia has raised more than 19 million Australian dollars in private donations to purchase the Wooroora station, a vast tract of land in far north Queensland 1. The conservation group aims to finalize the transaction by Christmas, intending to merge the newly acquired property with its existing Yourka Reserve for unified management 1. This acquisition is described as creating a "worldwide legacy" through the protection of majestic landscapes and critical ecological corridors 1.
The target site spans over 20,000 hectares and is located approximately 100 kilometers southwest of Cairns 1. Strategically positioned, the land connects the Wet Tropics World Heritage rainforest with the Great Barrier Reef catchment area, serving as a vital link between wet sclerophyll forests and savanna woodlands 1. The property lies on the traditional lands of the Jirrbal people and provides habitat for 12 endangered species, underscoring its significant biodiversity value 1. Once purchased, the Wooroora station will expand upon the organization’s current stewardship of the 43,575-hectare Yourka Reserve, enhancing regional conservation efforts 1.
