In 1990 the newly elected State Labor Government, with the assistance of several local councils and the Tully branch of Wildlife Preservation Society Queensland WPSQ, organised a conference at Mission Beach to discuss the plight of the cassowary. The outcome of this conference was the establishment of the Consultative Committee for Cassowary Conservation (C4). C4 was a consortium of local community groups, local councils, government departments and other agencies such as CSIRO.
C4 established five working groups to achieve these aims:
  • Habitat
  • Education
  • Rural
  • Nursery
  • Rescue and Rehabilitation
Representation and advice from the local indigenous people (Djiru)
Through the working groups and the vision statement of "Knowing Keeping Sharing", C4 undertakes to protect Mission Beach's natural values to ensure a healthy environment, community and economy. We believe Mission Beach can develop and maintain its unique identity including being a place where you can still see a cassowary in the wild.
