The Cooloola BioBlitz is one of the significant events of the year for Coastcare and this video captures the 2021 Cooloola Bioblitz. We're trying to document the biodiversity in the whole region. Watch our latest video (10 minutes) .
Acknowledgement of Traditional Owners
In keeping with the spirit of reconciliation, Cooloola Coastcare acknowledges the Kabi Kabi and Butchulla people who are the traditional custodians of the land and sea where Cooloola Coastcare operates, and recognise that these have always been places of environmental stewardship. We wish to pay respect to their Elders - past, present and emerging - and acknowledge the important role Aboriginal people continue to play within the Cooloola community.
