  • History of Conservation Reserves in the South-West of Western Australia
    JournalJournal of ofthe the Royal Royal Society Society of ofWestern Western Australia, Australia, 79(4), 79:225–240, December 1996 1996 History of conservation reserves in the south-west of Western Australia G E Rundle WA National Parks and Reserves Association, The Peninsula Community Centre, 219 Railway Parade, Maylands WA 6051 Abstract Focusing on the Darling Botanical District, reservation in the south-west of Western Australia largely involves the forest estate. The remaining natural bushland today is mainly reserves of State forest and so further opportunities to create new national parks or nature reserves of any significance would generally mean converting a State forest reserve to some other sort of conser- vation reserve. Thus, the history of Western Australia’s State forest reservation is important. The varied origins of some of the region’s well-known and popular national parks are of special interest. Their preservation as conservation reserves generally had little to do with scien- tific interest and a lot to do with community pleasure in the outdoors and scenery. Their protec- tion from early development had little to do with the flora and habitat protection needs that are the focus of these Symposium proceedings. Factors such as lack of shipping access, the discovery of glittering caverns, and the innovation of excursion railways were involved in saving the day. In contrast, the progressive reservation of State Forest was a hard slog by an insular Forests Depart- ment against many opponents. The creation of a comprehensive system of conservation reserves in this part of Western Australia is an on-going modern phenomenon with continued wide popular support.
