The creeping extinction of koalas

A vigil will "mourn the death of a koala found injured during clear-fell operations in Pine Creek State Forest in July. Forestry Corporation confirmed the animal was found on 21 July within an active harvesting area."

"...We are still losing koalas to logging in the very compartments that should form the bridge.”

"Mr Elzer, a long-time Coffs Coast resident, said he has witnessed the extinction of all northern beaches koalas, which, decades ago, formed a healthy large colony. He fears that the remaining few in the heart of the city around the Coffs Creek bushland and east of the Sawtell link road will suffer the same fate in years to come."

“Without connectivity to the lush hinterland connecting Bongil Bongil National Park to Bindarri National Park, this small re-emerging colony will also become extinct,” he said." >>

Beware of Drop Bears Signage - 'Slow Down, Koalas on Road'. Stay safe, social media folk. Meta-marsupials are on the move, footloose, and fancy free. #koalas #dropbears

Greater gliders' spectacular recovery after bushfires https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03-04/greater-glider-population-booms-after-blue-mountain-bushfires/105003914

"Endangered #GreaterGliders in part of the southern #BlueMountains have made a spectacular recovery after the black summer #bushfires in 2019-20... the #marsupials' numbers are 45% higher than were before the fires began in 2019... Greater gliders are like #koalas. They feed exclusively on #eucalypt foliage... there's been a lot of new eucalypt foliage for them to feed on"

The NSW Department of Planning and Environment gets out the cavalry and finds that koalas really exist.

"NSW Premier Chris Minns, Minister for the Environment Penny Sharpe and Minister for Agriculture and Regional NSW Tara Moriarty have today visited Bongil Bongil National Park near Coffs Harbour to see firsthand the areas that will form the park and meet scientists who are using drones to improve the accuracy of the NSW koala count."
