Quick question: when you think rainforest, what do you think of? If your answer wasn’t the Daintree Rainforest, then you’re wrong 😌🌿🌳
The@wettropicsworldheritage rainforest is one of the oldest surviving rainforests in the world, around 30 million years older than the Amazon Rainforest 🤯 It’s home to 20 Indigenous language groups and a large portion of Australia’s plant and animal species!
Did you know that there are more tree species found in 1 hectare of the Wet Tropics Rainforest than in the whole of the United Kingdom 🌴🌴
