It's time to defend WA's nature.
We need stronger laws to protect and restore vulnerable natural areas across the state, from the pygmy blue whales of Scott Reef threatened by fossil fuel projects, to the ring-tailed possums of our unique Jarrah Forest threatened by bauxite mining, to the colourful peacock spiders of Brixton Wetland threatened by industry, to our last urban woodland and street trees under threat from uncontrolled development.
Join us this Threatened Species Day - raise your voice (and umbrella) and make a difference by calling on our state and federal governments to enact laws that protect and restore nature, bring down emissions and save our threatened species.
Wear black and bring a red or black umbrella (there will be some provided) as we flock together to create a giant Black Cockatoo formation!
Black Cockatoos are umbrella species for the South West Global Biodiversity Hotspot. They are part of a growing list of more than 2,000 species and ecosystems threatened with extinction across Australia, including 429 plant and 245 animal species in WA.
