Working with Landowners | Tasmanian Land Conservancy

We work alongside committed landholders across Tasmania to identify, protect and manage important areas on their own properties through the establishment of conservation agreements.

Land Management Guide

Australia’s current estate of protected areas (National Parks and State Reserves) is no longer sufficient to protect and maintain healthy wildlife populations. Recent research also shows that while big patches of intact habitat continue to be vitally important for wildlife, small patches of suburban bush are often equally critical for the survival of rare and endangered species. Every bit counts!

Wildlife Identification Guide

🐾 Struggling to identify an animal recorded during your WildTracker survey? Don't worry, it happens to the best of us. This guide may just have the information you need to classify your quadruped.

Land For Wildlife

Private landholders own and manage some of the most important areas for nature conservation in Tasmania, including critical habitat types and wildlife which are not adequately protected on public land.

trawtha makuminya

trawtha makuminya is 6,878 ha of near-pristine land owned by the Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre. It connects the Tasmanian Land Conservancy reserves at Skullbone Plains and Five Rivers and the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage, and is managed for conservation. trawtha makuminya plays a vital role in reconnecting the Aboriginal community with Country.

Conservation Covenant Programs

Conserving private land is one of the most effective ways to protect natural landscapes, native plants and animals for future generations. In Tasmania, privately protected land covers a smaller area, but contains a higher percentage of threatened communities than public reserves.

Midlands Conservation Partnership

The Tasmanian Midlands are home to one of the most threatened ecosystems in the world - temperate grasslands and grassy woodlands. The Midlands Conservation Partnership (MCP) brings farmers and conservationists together to help protect these species on working farms.
