  1. 🇦🇺 🐨 What is the Great Koala National Park?

    It’s a plan to connect 175,000 hectares of publicly-owned state forests to existing National Parks, creating a 315,000 hectare nature reserve in the Coffs Coast Region and giving endangered species, like koalas, a safe place to live.

  6. Ein Krokodil in der #WilhelmaStuttgart frisst #Plastik, das von Besuchern ins Gehege geworfen wurde. #Zoo-Direktor sagt: kein Problem.
    Irgendwie hat er einen Punkt: die Welt ist voller Plastik ...

    Auch Wilhelma:
    7 Koalas werden in der Terra Australis für 12 Mio € eingesperrt und mit Eukalyptus aus Florida gefüttert.
    4 von ihnen sterben binnen eines Jahres.

  13. "The koala population
    in the Burbank bushland (south-east Queensland) ...has suffered massive losses in the past 20-30 years."

    "...Those little ones cross roads, walk into backyards with dogs or trip into swimming pools … we've had all of those types of koalas rescued..."

    Strapping tracking collars around their necks and buzzing the marsupial with thermal drones will now help monitor the sprawling urbanisation, cars and dogs?

  23. Creating diversified revenue streams out of 'The koala park' -
    carbon credits and logging?
    Nature as cash cow

    "A long-promised New South Wales great koala national park is set to go ahead after the Albanese government greenlit the state to receive hundreds of millions of dollars for protecting native forests previously earmarked for logging."

    "...Polluting companies are allowed to buy an unlimited number of credits – also known as offsets – to count as their own cuts while continuing to pollute. Scientists have warned limiting the climate crisis requires rapid direct cuts in emissions and that carbon offsets should be used sparingly."

    "NSW Greens MP Sue Higginson said the logging industry was unprofitable and the government should end it regardless of carbon credit revenue. “Reducing our forests in NSW to cash cows and offsets for climate polluters … sends a signal across the country that governments can disregard the intrinsic value of nature in favour of the latest get-out-of-jail-free card for climate polluters." >>

  30. Lingering loopholes in the new national environment laws

    "The federal government says it fixed Australia's 'broken' environmental laws. Koala advocates disagree."

    "Environmentalists believe the EPBC Act has (Australia's Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation) allowed habitat to be gradually lost, with multiple projects approved within the same area. Habitat loss on the Redlands coast has contributed to an 80 per cent drop in koala numbers over the last 25 years." >>

  40. Koalas are once again experiencing population declines across Australia.

    "Koala numbers crashed across Australia 100,000 years ago. Global glacial cycles are likely to blame." The koala "is now listed as endangered in Queensland, New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. "

    "...Recent declines have generated a similar bottleneck over a much shorter time window, due to the historical and continued removal of suitable koala habitat. This is made worse by other threats such as hunting, disease, vehicle strikes, feral dog attacks and bushfires." >>
