Significant measures have been announced by the Queensland Government this week to improve the natural environment of the State.
The Queensland Government has allocated $2.3 million to recover priority areas in Australia's largest ancient Antarctic beech rainforests running south from Mount Barney National Park across the NSW border.
Some breeding programs and weed-clearing work have also been announced to boost numbers of endangered species in the local areas.
It’s hoped that these measures will recover natural habitats and rebuild the important tourism and visitors infrastructure.
