Warrnambool Plain Bioregion

Warrnambool Plain

The Warrnambool Plain is the second most heavily cleared of the Glenelg Hopkins bioregions. Native vegetation is largely restricted to the coastland, with just 4% of the bioregion in formal reserves. This bioregion provides nationally significant habitat for many threatened coastal species.
