Yellingbo Nature Conservation Reserve, Nature conservation reserve in Victoria, Australia.

The reserve spans 590 hectares along multiple creek systems, featuring native bushland and wetlands that support numerous plant and animal species.

The Victorian Government established Yellingbo State Wildlife Reserve in 1965 to protect declining populations of native species and their habitats.

The name Yellingbo comes from Woiwurrung language, representing the traditional connection of Indigenous peoples to this land.

Located 45 kilometers east of Melbourne, the reserve maintains walking tracks for visitors while prioritizing scientific research and species protection.

This reserve houses all three Victorian terrestrial emblems: the helmeted honeyeater, Leadbeater's possum, and pink heath in one location.
