Where Tasmania’s unique wildlife abounds
A Protected Area on Private Land, BCT abounds in native Tasmanian wildlife, including pademelons, Bennetts wallabies, echidnas, wombats, spotted quolls, and brushtail possums. Thirty-seven hectares of BCT is under a Conservation Covenant which gives it the status of a privately owned national park, protected in perpetuity.
