Animals

The (vulnerable) Richmond birdwing butterfly is found in Nicoll Scrub and an inspection of the area before its declaration as a National Park reported evidence of long-nosed bandicoots, green catbirds, whip birds, scrub turkeys, a number of species of honeyeater, and a grey-headed flying fox colony.

  • long-nosed bandicoots
  • green catbirds
  • whipbirds
  • scrub turkeys
  • a number of species of honeyeater
  • and a grey-headed flying fox colony.

With similar vegetation, Currumbin Valley Reserve can be expected to support a similar range of fauna. Currumbin Valley Reserve will contribute to the continued maintenance of a significant area of habitat for the plants and animals of this rapidly-developing area. Elsewhere, past land-clearing and ongoing threats have had a serious impact on ecosystems of this type.
