Rainforest Rescue
Australia
Registrace 9. 11. 2008
Rainforest Rescue has been protecting and restoring rainforests in Australia and internationally since 1999. We do this by purchasing and protecting the biodiversity of high conservation value rainforest, and by re-establishing rainforest through planting, maintenance and restoration programs.
Rainforests support around 50% of the land-based species of plants and animals on Earth. Beautiful, dynamic, and structurally complex, these forests are essential contributors to global ecology and represent millions of years of evolution. Conserving this unique biodiversity means protecting rainforest landscapes, species populations, genes, and interactions into the future.
Rainforest Rescue provides opportunities for individuals and businesses to Protect Rainforests Forever. To find out more about our conservation programs or to get involved, check out our website (www.rainforestrescue.org.au) to discover the range of ways that you can help.

Queensland Fan Palm Gallery Walkthrough with Rainforest Rescue – Protected Daintree Rainforest
In 2024 Rainforest Rescue celebrates 25 years of protecting and restoring rainforests. As part of our 25th anniversary, we are sharing stories, memories and inspiration from people who mean a great deal to our work.
Mark Dunphy, founder of the Firewheel Nursery and Rainforest Rescue's Native Nursery Advisor, has been visiting the Daintree region for over 40 years. Ever since his first encounter with what he calls 'the Holy Grail of tropical rainforest', Mark has been smitten with the diversity of plant and animal life in the Daintree.
In his words, "It's almost a cliche because they are so visually iconic, the Daintree has plants like the native Queensland fan palms (Licuala ramsayi). I'm crazy about them! They're stunning. You walk through a Fan Palm gallery, and they are so wonderful to see that you want to share the experience with everyone."
In this video, take a relaxing walk through a Fan Palm Gallery with Rainforest Rescue. You'll see the stunning foliage that creates amazing shapes in the forest, as glimpses of sunlight catch the edges of the palm leaves. Listen as the rainforest birdsong and sounds of the trees mingle with the rustle of the palms. Enjoy a couple of minutes deep within the Daintree and become a 'fan', just like Mark is, of an iconic species from the oldest rainforest in the world.
All footage is captured in intact Daintree rainforest, in locations that are part of Rainforest Rescue's portfolio of land that is protected forever. Thanks to the generosity and commitment of our supporters, more and more of the Daintree's natural wonder is now protected and connected to the National Park. By connecting up fragments of rainforest we allow the endemic species of the Daintree to move freely and increase the genetic diversity of the forest ecology.

hello! this is such a wonderful activity to do. can i ask for a permission to use this video for a documentary? i will not use it entirely but i will put a credit at the end of the video❤
Hi @balqisnajwa4039 Thanks so much for your interest in our work. If you could email us (info@rainforestrescue.org.au) with some more info re: your documentary I will have a chat with our Communications Manager & Media Producer regarding your request. Thanks again and have a wonderful day.
brilliant
This planet thirsts for natural environment restoration to repair the attrition inflicted upon it by the human species, particularly over the past two centuries where its population has expanded well beyond a sustainable level. Always a pleasure to hear from those that materially or indirectly support and display their passion this endeavour.
Xlnt !!
Xlnt!
Next video give us more info...
Hi David, what kind of info are you after? There's some details in the caption of the video, and heaps of info on our website at www.rainforestrescue.org.au but we're always open to feedback on ways we can improve :-)
Just a suggestion to expand awareness regarding the rainforest
look at mossy earth and leave curious
you guys need to start making videos, the power of youtube is immense. Daily vlogs of the struggles, legals and plantings... everthing. I'm serious you need to do this now
Thanks for the feedback, we really love hearing from our supporters. We currently make as many videos as we can, but we're a very small team so we don't have capacity for daily vlogs. Maybe one day!
I have planted a forest. 250, 000 trees in 3 years
Wow! What an incredible effort! Thank you for helping restore, conserve & protect our natural world.
That's amazing did you film any of it, that would be also amazing
@@iwanttodoeverything5059 We sure did! Stay tuned for the offical video, and check out the sneak peak on our CZcams shorts 😃
Thats just fantastic. Congratulations to the RR team 😊
Thank you! We're so happy to share the story and to be able to continue protecting and restoring rainforests. We couldn't do it without our amazing supporters!
wonderful, please add a map
Thank you @rohill439 - a great suggestion! We have added a Google Maps link to the video description.(maps.app.goo.gl/QRbg7338w3ngVpVaA) The Rainforest Rescue website also includes location maps of the Wildlife Corridors and Nature Refuges that are protected forever. 😊
Beautiful! Thanks for all the work you do.
Thanks @glenyspowell5773 ! It's a really beautiful natural place and worth protecting.
That's what I call a superlative trophy
Getting the regular news that you’ve protected another site always makes my day. Keep up the great work 🎉
That's astounding and Must be So incredibly gratifying for everyone involved in this project. 🎉

is this species found in the understory of rainforests?
Hi Melanie, this species is a canopy tree. Our friends at the Wet Tropics have some more info available at www.wettropics.gov.au/the-green-dinosaur if you're interested :-)
@@rainforestrescueau ok, thank you!
@@rainforestrescueau do you happen to know a plant species that is understory and lives in the daintree?
@@melaniedavis6673 Our friends at Discover The Daintree have a list of flora available at www.discoverthedaintree.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/FloralistPDF.pdf which you'll probably find helpful :-)
@@rainforestrescueau thank you very much!
Powerful and moving - want to help!
What a wonderful video of a truly wonderful and important piece of the Daintree rainforest. Let's help save Lot 18!!!

What a beautiful plant, where I live in the mountains there are plants like that but the color of the leaves turns purple instead of red
This is amazing, thank you for sharing this video
Great work!
I just spent a week in the Daintree, dedicated a whole travel video to it. So beautiful!
