A place of unparalleled native beauty, Tropical North Queensland is home to some of our most fascinating creatures. This region has the highest biodiversity of any part of Australia, and each year thousands of visitors are drawn to the state's lush, tropical north to experience the lure of its spectacular landscapes and astonishing wildlife. More than half of Australia's butterflies are found here, for example, as well as an abundance of native mammals, reptiles and colourful birds across a wide range of habitats, including pristine rainforests, mist-covered mountains, fire-adapted eucalypt forests and coastal mangroves. This new edition of Wildlife of Tropical North Queensland, first published twenty years ago, is a comprehensive guide to the animals of the region. Featuring full-colour photography and updated information on more than 850 species, it covers the area east of the Great Dividing Range between Cooktown and Mackay (including Cairns and Townsville) and is an essential handbook for anyone wanting to discover the beauty and diversity of Queensland's wildlife for themselves.

Within these pages are sprinklings of tropical splendour; a finely curated selection of locally-sourced travel inspiration from Queensland's Tropical North. Stretching more than 1000km down the coastline from the most northern tip of Australia, this region of tumbling waterfalls and exquisite reefs is the first to feature in our coffee table travel series.Here, the planet's largest reef system sits tantalisingly close to the continent, separated by an array of idyllic islands and secluded sand cays. Parting ocean and outback is a rainforest 80 million years older than the Amazon, sprawled over ancient ranges that loom above the seaside. Tropical conditions and natural abundance present a delectable selection of local culinary delights, from mud crab to mangosteen, barramundi to black sapote. We've picked exotic fruits in the gardens of local growers, slept beneath an ochre monolith at a luxury outback lodge, sampled award-winning gins made with locally sourced botanicals and crawled into ancient cave systems deep beneath the Earth to uncover the magnificence of Australia's Tropical North.
