The Daintree is the heart and soul of the Wet Tropics. World Heritage parks do not protect all of this area, and much of the coastal lowland tropical rainforest from the Daintree River to Cape Tribulation remains unprotected.

With the road to Cape Tribulation now bituminised, settlement of the privately owned allotments within the Daintree is escalating, resulting in the on-going loss of habitat and forest connectivity. Between five to ten allotments are developed for rural residential housing every year.

The Daintree Buy Back and Protect Forever Project purchases properties of high conservation value surrounded by World Heritage rainforests. The acquisitions contribute to long term plans for Cassowary corridors in the Daintree.
