Parts of the Parkland contain remnant native vegetation, and many varieties of birds use the area as a corridor between Cooleman Ridge and Mount Taylor. Kangaroos, reptiles and other wildlife hold an attraction to users of the Parkland. The dam provides a habitat for ducks, frogs and yabbies.
The aims of the group are to restore the remnant native vegetation across the Parkland to:
- Help ensure that the area continues to provide a vegetative and wildlife corridor between Mount Taylor and Cooleman Ridge;
- Secure the various management zones;
- Prevent the misuse of the parkland; and
- Prevent the misuse of the parkland; and
- Create a quiet, safe recreation area.
