Hi there, I'm Nature Nic. I am 10 years old and have created a day
called "Black and White Day". This day was created to help raise awareness and money for the Tasmanian Devil.
The Tasmanian Devil is suffering from DFTD (Devil Facial Tumour Disease). This disease is fatal....so much so the the
Tasmanian Devil is listed as ENDANGERED!!. Many people around Australia have participated in Black and White Day with
3 schools from the USA. This day has also inspired people not to only dress in Black and White but to also create other
ideas such as "Dress for devils Day", "Devils Morning Tea", "Little Devils Day", "Devil Fashions", "Devils Talent Quests"
and some schools even has "Black and White Shoe Day". These ideas are fantastic, and all raising awareness and money
for the Tasmanian Devils. So come on Australia, stay inspired, join in the "Black and White Inspiration" next year and
have your school or business participate in Black and White Day - create your own theme and help "make a difference"

Nature Nic would like
to thank all those children, schools, parent and supporters for contributing to the awareness and plight to save the Tasmanian
Devils. If we continue to work together we can maybe one day find a cause and cure for this terrible disease.
A Special thankyou goes to - DPIW, UTAS, Australia Zoo, Irwin Family, 7HOFM, The
Mercury, Radar Promotions.

The Steve Irwin Wildlife
Reserve (SIWR) is a wetland conservation property and a tribute to Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin. The 135,000 ha property,
in Queensland’s Cape York Peninsula, is home to a set of three important spring fed wetlands which provide a critical
water source to threatened habitat, provide permanent flow of water to the Wenlock River, and is home to rare and vulnerable
plants and wildlife.
The Situation
The Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve (SIWR) is being threatened
by strip mining. Cape Alumina Pty Ltd has lodged mining lease applications which include approximately 12,300 ha of the Reserve.
Cape Alumina company documents indicate an intention to mine 50 plus million tons over a 10 year period commencing 2010. The
greater part of this mine is on SIWR
The proposed area for mining on the Steve
Irwin Wildlife Reserve contains the head waters of irreplaceable waterways and unique biodiversity which will not recover
after mining operations are finished. One man can make a difference, you can make a difference.
