"New data has pointed to the "systemic" under-reporting of greater glider dens within areas earmarked for logging in New South Wales, which scientists say could result in localised extinctions."

"Environment groups say the new rules have allowed Forestry Corporation of NSW (FCNSW), a state government-owned logging company, to survey less of the forests they plan to log, which has resulted in the number of greater gliders being severely underestimated."

Shiny new barbed wire fences are going up around the Bellingen and Gleniffer area:

"Barbed wire is a hidden killer of Aussie wildlife. Gliders, bats, owls and wallabies die tangled every year. Researchers have long documented sugar and squirrel gliders caught on barbed wire in roadside vegetation...Replacing barbed wire with plain fencing is a quick win for nature. It’s simple, cheap, lifesaving."

Historic win for nature! The NSW government has moved to establish the Great Koala National Park, expanding protected land to 476,000 ha and immediately halting logging on 176,000 ha of vital koala habitat—safeguarding 12,000+ koalas and 36,000 greater gliders.
This long-awaited step—10+ years in the making—is a triumph for our forests, wildlife, and climate. While six timber mills and ~300 jobs are impacted, the government has promised JobKeeper-style support, counselling, retraining, and economic development packages for affected communities.
This park isn’t just about koalas—it’s a biodiversity refuge, a climate buffer, and a major opportunity for nature-based tourism (projected to bring $163 million in economic benefit).
After years of advocacy by communities, scientists, and Traditional Custodians, this is NSW’s most significant conservation victory in decades. Let’s stand strong for our wildlife—with hope, action, and gratitude.

Damaging the habitat of a threatened species

The “final straw” for logging in NSW

"A timber harvesting company owned by an Australian state government is facing 29 charges in the Land and Environment Court. It's understood the matter relates in part to the death of an endangered greater glider at Tallaganda State Forest, near Canberra, which was found near a logging site in 2023."

“Australia is the only wealthy nation still cutting forests down at scale. Eastern Australia remains a global deforestation front, and much of that is driven by logging in NSW. Western Australia and Victoria shut down their native forest logging."

Coal cooks the climate
Logging wipes out endangered species

"Conservationists have called on the environment minister, Murray Watt, to intervene after satellite images appear to show clearing in threatened species habitat at the site of a proposed coalmine in Queensland."

"We need to preserve these sites because on our country already there are that many mines destroying country, why do we need one more?”

The great koala - glider national park - logging an environmentally significant area

"The Minns Labor government promised to create a koala national park before the state election more than two years ago, but has not taken a decision on the boundaries and has allowed logging to continue. Between April and July 2024, the surveys detected greater gliders at 82 sites. The government’s analysis estimated the planned park has between 29,693 and 44,211 gliders, with a mean estimate of 36,483."

“...Logging should cease in all state forest areas identified as containing greater gliders.”

@KateShaw 's newest episode features the Greater Gliders, which at first I assumed was kind of sugar glider. But no! The Greater Gliders are *not* closely related to sugar gliders and evolved gliding independently. Also featured is a bird wise enough to detoxify cane toads. Naturally it is an ibis, and related to the Egyptian Ibis (African Sacred Ibis), considered a symbol of wisdom in ancient times. : )

Logging in forest earmarked for koala national park increasing under NSW Labor, analysis finds
“Far from protecting the great koala national park, they are accelerating its degradation."

"Logging of native forest in the proposed great koala national park (GKNP) in northern New South Wales has intensified since the Minns government took office, according to new analysis by conservation advocates."

The report, which the state’s forestry corporation disputes, found 7,185 hectares (17,700 acres) were logged within the promised park in the 21 months since the March 2023 state election. Dailan Pugh, the president of the North East Forest Alliance, said this was about 8.4% of the area identified for potential logging and included habitat for endangered koalas and another 37 threatened species....They’re still logging areas they’ve identified as high density for koalas,” Pugh said."

Taxpayers are ‘literally paying’ to cut down forests sustaining koalas and greater gliders and providing clean drinking water

"The state forestry corporation has had losses totalling $72m in its native hardwood forest division since 2020-21.Two reports revealing the extent of financial losses from native forest logging in New South Wales raise questions about the economic viability of the industry."

"...Public native forestry struggled financially, offering “poor returns to taxpayers at best. The government should look at the economic costs and benefits of the native forestry business in NSW and consider whether community welfare is served by continuing this practice.”

Greater gliders
"were once common along the east coast, but have since disappeared.. more than half the total population has been wiped out in just over two decades."

"Hundreds of endangered gliders have been sighted in NSW forests earmarked for logging. Surveys conducted by community conservationists documented more than 10 times the number of critical glider "den trees", and more than three times the number of gliders themselves, compared to those found by Forestry Corporation of NSW (FCNSW) in its mandated pre-logging surveys.The logging in those forests is planned to continue despite the regulator being told about the sightings."

Raising awareness about the plight of an endangered animal - the greater glider

“Most Australians don’t know that the species even exists..."

"Habitat destruction, including land clearing, logging and climate-fuelled bushfires have seen greater glider populations decline by 80% in some areas over recent decades...We need people power to help save the world’s largest gliding marsupial and all our threatened species. That starts with stronger national environment laws that close loopholes and actually protect our unique species.”

Promises of a Greater Glider Forest park,
a Great Koala park

“It’s the biggest gliding possum in the world. It’s up to a metre long … It’s got this massive floppy tail. It’s got big floppy ears. It looks like a cross between a koala and a possum."
