Protected area in Queensland, Australia
Forty Mile Scrub is a national park in Queensland (Australia), 224 km drive southwest of Cairns.
Ancient volcanic streams, grass forests, springs, streams, and a preserved isolated pocket of semi-evergreen vines are just some of the contents of this beautiful national park.[1]
Many species of animals have found refuge here, some permanently, and some come occasionally, like koalas. This is home to the largest cockroach in the world.[2]
