The Otway Ranges bioregion covers 150,000 hectares extending over three local government areas within the Corangamite catchment management region. The bioregion encompasses the Otway ranges from Moonlight Head in the west towards Bambra in the north-east, and extending south to the coast. Most of the region is public land, comprising state forest, national parks and state parks. Over 80% of the Otway Ranges bioregion still has a cover of native vegetation, and 22% of the bioregion is in formal reserves. The bioregion supports a diverse range of vegetation communities, including Cool Temperate Rainforest, and still contains examples of most of its original vegetation types. Of the flora and fauna species that have been recorded in the Otway Ranges, 92 species are considered rare or threatened, including 46 plants, 9 mammals, 32 birds, 2 fish and 3 invertebrates.
