Ellura Sanctuary
                      

Ellura is a private Sanctuary in the Murray Mallee, South Australia, near Swan Reach
Conservation Park, that we bought in June 2012.

A truly beautiful expanse of 190 acres; with old-growth Mallee & native pine forests,
275mm average rainfall & 14 active wombat warrens.

Our friends ask, "Why did you buy it?" Answer: "So we can weed it and look after it."
They are gobsmacked. Why get a mortgage to weed? Because we are Habitat Carers
We believe that our wildlife has been decimated by man and the least we can do
is to try and give habitat back to nature.
"HABITAT LOSS" IS THE SINGLE BIGGEST CAUSE OF WILDLIFE EXTINCTION
