The state government has invested $1.4 million into protection for threatened species, including Moreton Bay humpback dolphins and powerful owls.
29 projects will receive funding, such as the powerful owl project, which will involve mapping habitat, monitoring diseases and a focus on conservation.
Environment Minister Leeanne Enoch says the funding is part of the $18 million Community Sustainable Action Grants Program.
