Wonyip Landcare Group represents Landholders in the Wonyip area of the YYLN. They are an extremely active and forward thinking group and are involved in everything from planning with HVP Plantations for the re-establishment of native vegetation along riparian areas within plantation land, to weed and fox control on their own land.
In 2007, the Group was successful in receiving funding from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to establish Wildlife Corridors for the Tiger Quoll (otherwise known as the Spot-tail Quoll).
HVP have been a major partner in the Project, and have provided the land upon which the Corridors will be established.
Stages 1 and 2 of the Project were completed in the spring of 2007, with some 4000 Eucalypts being planted by the Group. In liaison with HVP, a further 4000 trees will be planted into Stage 3a of the Project at the end of this winter (2008), and a further 4000 will be planted at the end of winter in 2009, to complete Stage 3b of the Project, and the Corridor.
Members of the Wonyip Landcare Group are also actively involved as Waterwatch volunteers.
Our Projects:
Extending Highways For Quolls
Our aim is to extend Quoll corridors from Wonyip, to Wilsons Promontory which will be a major project involving a number of Landcare Groups and will be a five to ten year exercise.
