Pulganbar Rainforest
Status: Donation in Progress
If you’d love to help replant the cleared areas of this native rainforest, get involved today!
Identified by four Clarence Valley ecologists, this 115 hectare (280 acre) block is surrounded by cattle stations, but contains a diverse set of flora and fauna. Bryan Rollins and his partner Kimberly Hill acquired the block in 2025 and intend to donate the land to Wildlife Preservation Clarence Valley along with the funds to maintain the property in the future.
A drastically underrepresented Dry Rainforest community of Hoop Pine, Brush Box, Red Ash, Forest She-oak, and Ironbark trees, along with native kangaroo grass and orchids create a home for Koalas, Glossy Black Cockatoos, Swamp Wallabies, Lace Monitors, Dingos, and more.
Bryan, along with other members of WPCV are actively working on eliminating invasive species like Lantana and Cat’s Claw so this special ecosystem can thrive.
“When else do you get a chance to preserve something for centuries? So much of what we do in life is so temporary, and I feel so lucky to get to create a legacy that will last long after I’m not around.”
- Bryan Rollins
