Bush Heritage is a non-profit conservation organisation dedicated to protecting Australia's unique animals, plants and their habitats

Enabled by the generosity of our supporters, we own and manage private conservation reserves throughout Australia, covering around a million hectares.
Our reserves are managed in a similar way to National Parks - the land is legally protected, with the intention of safeguarding it forever.

We also build partnerships with other landowners to support conservation management on their properties. Through these innovative conservation partnerships, along with the more than 38 reserves we directly own, we're now protecting more than 6 million hectares of the most ecologically important and threatened landscapes across Australia.

We're respected as a down-to-earth, pragmatic organisation that delivers tangible results.

Using proven scientific methods, we manage our reserves to restore ecosystems to health and create the right conditions for native species to thrive.

We're strategic in choosing land to protect - we aim to protect threatened species and habitats, to create habitat corridors and to complement existing reserves.

We build partnerships with government, indigenous communities, researchers, landowners, businesses, and other non-profit organisations to achieve a common goal
