Together, we can bring life back to the land and secure a future for our natural environment. Join the movement today!

The Makuru Rewilding Project is an ecological restoration initiative based in Nannup, Western Australia, focused on restoring endemic habitats and supporting native species. The pilot site spans 100 acres of introduced wildling pine forest, an area where invasive species have disrupted natural ecosystems. Through targeted restoration efforts, the project aims to rehabilitate the landscape, removing non-native pines and reintroducing native vegetation to create a self-sustaining ecosystem.

Rewilding Makuru 

By integrating habitat regeneration, feral species management, and community engagement, Makuru Rewilding is dedicated to ensuring the survival of iconic native wildlife, including the Carnaby’s black cockatoo and other threatened species. The project combines traditional ecological knowledge, regenerative land practices, and scientific conservation methods to establish a thriving environment that supports biodiversity, ecosystem resilience, and long-term environmental health.

As the first initiative of its kind in the Shire of Augusta-Margaret River, the project pioneers new approaches to habitat restoration, blending Indigenous wisdom, modern science, and community engagement to create a replicable, scalable model for future rewilding efforts.

3. Innovation in Conservation

By working in partnership with the Wadandi Boodja Bibbulmun people and honouring Noongar seasonal knowledge, Makuru Rewilding prioritizes ethical conservation and the deep connection between culture, land, and biodiversity.

2. Cultural & Ecological Integrity

Committed to restoring ecosystems and fostering self-sustaining landscapes, the project focuses on reversing degradation, enhancing biodiversity, and ensuring long-term ecological resilience through holistic land management.
