Various approaches have been used historically to map “wilderness” in the Tarkine region.

Loss of high quality wilderness in the Tarkine region during the last 15-30 years has been considerable but large tracts of high quality wilderness still exist in the region and constitute the core of the Tarkine National Park proposed by the Tarkine National Coalition, Bob Brown Foundation and other groups.

The Tasmanian National Parks Association offers an independent voice for Tasmania’s national parks and reserves, to ensure they are managed for the conservation of the values for which they were proclaimed.
