Corymbia Biodiversity Project
Protecting biodiversity for future generations
Sentis is proud to support the Corymbia Biodiversity Project, a large-scale conservation initiative dedicated to restoring and protecting biodiversity in the Pillar Valley region of NSW.
Through this project, Sentis has contributed more than $3 million toward the purchase, restoration and management of 465 hectares of land known as Banyula. The site now provides opportunities for scientific research, community education and engagement to protect and nurture biodiversity in perpetuity.
Wildlife Monitoring
Over 30 monitoring cameras capture wildlife activity across Banyula, providing data to inform evidence-based conservation actions.
Government agencies and conservation partners have also established their own monitoring systems throughout this designated biodiversity hotspot.
Species Identification
To date, the project has identified:
Wildlife Protection
A 70-hectare feral predator-proof enclosure has been constructed at Banyula, providing a secure haven for species recovering from population decline. Ongoing work also targets introduced species such as foxes and feral pigs to reduce their impact on native wildlife.
Community Support
Banyula regularly hosts groups and individuals from the local community, government, and scientific organisations — all united by a shared goal of wildlife preservation.
Sentis at Banyula
In 2023, the Sentis team spent time at Banyula for our annual Christmas gathering — a chance to connect firsthand with the land we help protect.
The visit included a guided walk through restoration zones, a look into how wildlife monitoring works, and time spent learning about the local ecosystem and conservation efforts.
It was a meaningful reminder of the importance of protecting Australia’s natural environments and the role we can all play in creating a more sustainable future.
