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

https://www.europesays.com/uk/1197471/ In 1974, an Australian ranger proposed turning a service bridge into a wildlife corridor; 52 years later, it opened over a motorway carrying 40,000 vehicles a day, reconnecting two national parks #AnimalHabitatConnectivity #CawleysBridge #EnvironmentalConservation #HeathcoteNationalPark #InfrastructureForWildlife #koalas #RoyalNationalPark #Science #SustainableLandscapeDesign #UK #UnitedKingdom #wildlife #WildlifeCorridor #WildlifeCrossing

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." >>

Koalas - endangered in parts but overabundant in others
"Koalas in Queensland, New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory have been listed as endangered by the Australian government since 2022. In these places, Crowther says, native populations have declined due to land-clearing, habitat fragmentation caused by urban development, disease, and death from vehicle strikes and dog attacks."
"Analysis has shown that nearly 2m hectares of forests suitable for koalas have been destroyed since the marsupial was declared a threatened species in 2011. Most of the clearing – 81% – occurred in Queensland."

Biodiversity at risk from social media activities
"Liked to death? The social media race for nature photos can trash ecosystems – or trigger rapid extinction...Baiting, drones, poaching and trampling."
Hunting wildlife snaps
"Viral photos of undisturbed natural beauty can lead thousands of people to head there. As more people arrive, they begin destroying what they loved seeing on screen."Sharing GPS locations
"In 2010, a new species of slipper orchid (Paphiopedilum canhii) was discovered in Vietnam. Photos with location information were posted online. Just six months after discovery, more than 99% of all known individuals had been collected. The orchid is now extinct in the wild."

Barking dog on the outskirts of Bellingen is chasing a koala mother and her joey up the tree (video available) These 'incidents' are common in this dog-loving shire.
While this wildlife harassment is tolerated, the NSW government logging department is razing most of the koala/ wildlife habitat.

The NSW government is yet to set a date for the Great Koala National Park and is allowing native forest logging within the proposed park boundaries to continue ravaging critical habitat for the endangered greater glider and koala.
