The Inner West has many natural areas to visit - parks, rivers, and wetlands. They are an important refuge for wildlife, including threatened species and animals displaced by bushfire and drought. Council’s Bushcare teams work hard to maintain the Inner West's 20 hectares of natural areas, ensuring a healthier future for humans and wildlife and providing benefits to everyone, such as cleaner air, a buffer to noise pollution, opportunities to see wildlife, the calming effects of nature and space for kids to explore. You can help conserve our wildlife by becoming a citizen scientist monitoring birds in your backyard and creating habitat havens to encourage birds and skinks into your garden. |
