FNQ WILDLIFE WEEK
September 19th to the 27th 2003 has been designated as
FNQ Wildlife Week. This will be the first time that such an event has been held
in Far North Queensland.
FNQ Wildlife Week will be an experience for the entire family. It will be an
opportunity to witness the wildlife in their own habitat and to have the
vegetation of the Tablelands described to you by experts in their field.
" This is a first for Far North Queensland thanks to the initiative taken by
Tropical Tablelands Tourism and is already showing signs of building up into one
of the major Tablelands annual events."
Special guest Professor David Bellamy OBE world-renowned English Botanist
will be present to officially open the annual FNQ Wildlife Week. Professor
Bellamy has generously taken time out from his busy schedule to be the guest of
honour at the black tie, candle light dinner on Friday evening September
19th at the Mareeba Wetlands.
Two days of displays, exhibits and guest speakers will also be part of the
activities. This will take place at the Mareeba Tropical Savanna and Wetland
Reserve Information Centre on Saturday September 20th and Sunday
September 21st.
