Moorunde Wildlife Reserve

Moorunde Wildlife Reserve is a private protected area located in South Australia near the Murray River, between Blanchetown and Swan Reach. Located in the mallee scrub of South Australia, it was the first sanctuary established specifically for the southern hairy-nosed wombat. Currently with a total area of 6,900ha, it is one of the largest wombat sanctuaries in Australia. Moorunde Wildlife Reserve is managed by the Natural History Society of South Australia.
==History==
In 1967, wombat enthusiasts Mr & Mrs Conquest of Adelaide approached members of the Natural History Society of South Australia, keen to establish a sanctuary for Hairy-nosed Wombats. The Society had earlier lobbied the state government to create a sanctuary on the Nullarbor Plains in far-west South Australia, however the government failed to pursue this action. In 1968, the Society launched a public appeal to raise money to purchase land in the Murraylands, between the Mount Lofty Ranges and the Murray River.
The appeal was tremendously successful with publicity and support from the Sunday Mail newspaper and the Adelaide Bank, donations from many schools, community groups, private businesses and individuals. Monies donated allowed the Society to purchase 2,000ha of station-land near Blanchetown. The land had been heavily grazed by sheep and denuded of much of the original native vegetation. Since then, regrowth of trees, shrubs, mosses and lichens that have returned this land to a bio diverse habitat. The population of wombats has slowly recovered in numbers, albeit not without new pressures from introduced weeds and grazing competition from other animals. In 2007, the Society purchased an additional 4,900ha of adjacent land, commonly referred to as the Twelve Mile Plain, bringing the total area of Moorunde Wildlife Reserve to 6,900ha.
