My father knows a place we can only reach by boat. Not may people go there, and you have to know the way through the reef.

Hop to it

‘In November 2022, I went to Australia to conduct my PhD field research. One night, I took a walk outside my accommodation near the Daintree rainforest in rural Queensland. I found the outer wall of the house completely covered in green tree frogs. Their colour was so vibrant it appeared as if they were glowing in the dark. When I look at the photo now, it reminds me of the remarkable biodiversity I encountered across Australia and the urgent need to protect it.’

It’s estimated that over 100 plant species here depend almost entirely on the cassowary as their method of seed dispersal. BBC Earth | Seven Worlds, One Planet

 There is a tree called the Idiot Fruit tree which only occurs in Australia’s Daintree rainforest. It is also known as the green dinosaur due to it dating back over 100 million years. – WTF Fun Facts
