Hi every body here is a good fact--------

Over millions of years, as the climate and geography changed, the Australian rainforests receded to a small band between the coast and and the Great Dividing Range, and stretching from Cooktown in the north to Townsville in the south.

Today these rainforests represent less than one thousandth of the country’s total land mass.

Despite their relatively small size, the rainforests are home to an amazing diversity of life and provide a living record of the ecological and evolutionary processes which have shaped Australia’s plants and animals for over 415 million years.

To protect these rainforests, and to ensure that they are preserved for future generations, they were placed on the World Heritage list in 1988.
