Wadderin Sanctuary, Protected area in Narembeen, Australia.

The 427-hectare sanctuary contains granite outcrops surrounded by woodland, shrubland, and mallee vegetation within Western Australia's eastern wheatbelt region.

The site functioned as a water reserve in the 1920s, with infrastructure including low walls directing water into channels leading to a large holding dam.

Local farmers, scientists, and community volunteers work together to monitor and protect reintroduced species within this conservation project.

Located 290 kilometers east of Perth and 8 kilometers north of Narembeen, the sanctuary maintains a fox and cat-proof fence installed in 2008.

The sanctuary houses 241 native plant species and provides a protected environment for endangered animals like the red-tailed phascogale and brush-tailed bettong.
