Editing Toonumbar National Park (section)

==Description==
The park features subtropical rainforests protecting threatened plants and animals, such as the [[sooty owl]], [[red-legged pademelon]] and [[yellow-bellied glider]]. The rainforests on Dome Mountain and the Murray Scrub are part of the World Heritage listed Gondwana Rainforests of Australia. The rugged landscape of [[Mount Lindesay (Queensland)|Mount Lindesay]], Dome Mountain and Edinburgh Castle have provided the inspiration for many local Aboriginal legends.

The Murray Scrub and the Dome Mountain Forest contain significant areas of subtropical and temperate rainforest and are listed as part of the World Heritage Gondwana Rainforests of Australia. There are also drier and cooler places in the park and this has resulted in incredible diversity of flora, from [[eucalypt]] woodlands and tall gum forests, to forests of [[Archontophoenix cunninghamiana|bangalow palm]]s.

Animals in the park include [[marbled frogmouth]], [[koala]], [[Albert lyrebird]] and rainforest reptiles and frogs. The rainforest area is an important refuge for a number of fruit-eating pigeons and insectivorous bats. Pademelons also live there.

Focal Peak Volcano situated in Mt Barney National Park was active 23 million years ago and was responsible for the eroded volcanic remains of Mount Lindesay, Dome Mountain and Edinburgh Castle that dominate the landscape today. The high rainfall combined with fertile soil have created lush rainforests.

On average, the park receives {{convert|1035.8|mm}} of rain each year. Its highest recorded rainfall was {{convert|449.4|mm}} in one day.
