Australian Wetlands

Australian wetlands are crucial ecosystems found across the continent, including swamps, marshes, and floodplains. They serve as natural water filters, improve biodiversity by providing habitats for various plants and animals, and play a vital role in water management and flood control. Wetlands support unique wildlife, including birds, frogs, and fish, while also storing carbon, contributing to climate regulation. Their health is threatened by urban development, pollution, and climate change, making conservation efforts essential to protect these valuable environments for future generations and maintain their ecological functions.
