Many reptiles depend on NSW wetlands, including freshwater turtles, water skinks, snakes and water dragons.

We use report cards to tell us about the condition of NSW estuaries.

The conservation of wetlands is guided by the NSW Wetlands Policy, the Ramsar Convention and state and national programs. 

Many NSW wetlands are nationally significant, protected under a coastal planning policy or in national parks.

The Thirlmere Lakes Research Program (2017–2021) was a special investigation that aimed to shed light on changes in the lakes' water levels by gaining a better understanding of the land and ground water systems.

Thirlmere Lakes are possibly at their highest levels for the last decade.

After reasonable rain events in the lead up to Christmas 2020, Thirlmere Lakes continues to hold water and the vegetation and fauna appear to be in relatively good condition.
