Great Sandy
Declared as part of the World Wide Biosphere
Reservoir Net in 2009, this place is located in
Australia, which includes Fraser Island - World
Heritage by UNESCO-. In this biosphere, nearly
4,700 species of fauna have been identificated,
they are conjugated in several ecosystems: for-
est, maritime, coastal, sand dunes, mangroves,
lakes and river.
It’s important to mention that this Reserve con-
tains 40% of sweet water lakes that lay on top of de-
pressed rock formations, it’s also a point of transit
in the rout of the hunchback whale, whose sight-
ings have been constant, reason why, it’s an impor-
tant factor that activates ecotourism in Australia.
A vast number of migratory birds rest on the
trees of it’s rainy forest and other ecosystems,
where they feed and gather energy to continue
their pilgrimage. On the other hand, its beaches
are also a place for turtles that in danger of extinc-
tion to bury their eggs. In the counties within this
region, several sheep farms and reed cultives exist..
The association in charge of protecting, pro-
moting and fomenting the organic products that
are cultivated in this area is known as Burnett
Mary Regional Group for the Gestion of Natural
Resources, which solicited the designation of
Great Sandy as a Biosphere Reserve.
