Unbeknownst to some, the Dubbo area offers many great opportunities to experience our environment including wildlife, plants and Aboriginal Culture.  Some remnant bushland areas provide habitat for State and Federally-listed Endangered and Threatened species. 

We have collated some information in the pages below.  

Much of this information was previously published in the DFNCS book 'The Dubbo Region: A Natural History' (1984).

Additional information has been added to the content of this website since.  The DFNCS thanks and acknowledges the assistance of Dr. Darren Shelly, Mike Sutherland, Kay Owens, Janis and Tim Hosking for updating various parts of this information.
