This happened not far from Bathurst (about 30km from home). It really give me the s-- ts with the forest clearing that is going on evert where at the moment. John
Doesn't help this little feller, but apparently theres not going to be as much forest clearing/logging in the Tarkine as was originally planned,. How can anybody even think of cutting down magnificent old growth forest, do we really need that much paper?

Have you been to what is now called the tarkine. The biggest percentage of it is button grass plains, then there is other section that are so called virgin forest that has been selectively logged for well over 100 years and there is a smaller area that has never been logged. It is a buetiful area that has roads so I can acess it that were put in by loggers and miners. I despise clear felling of forest but am ok with selective use of resourse.
The Arthur, Pieman conservation area is a multi use forest area that has been managed over many decades, with logging, mining, fishing, cattle grazing and farmiing. you are right Blaze as to the use of the area, it's a shame that once the managers of this "so called tarkine" are no longer there to manage it , it will go to ruin. Pity all minority groups who make all the noise will not be there to help.
Hi, can you explain a bit further for me. why this beautiful koala has no tree? why is this forest being cleared? is it for the trees for paper or mining or a housing estate or something else? devaestated to see this beautiful koala like this. thanks.

The photographer transported it back to where it came from I'd guess.
Because it looks staged. You would be unlikely to find a Koala out in the open especially in bright sunlight like that.
That unnecessary artifice doesn't change our hopes that the environment is managed. The biggest threat would the the "Big Australia" policies of government though. Over-population of a land that is mainly desert and marginal gfarming land.
Apparently the NSW forestry had clear felled some pine trees at Macquarie woods.the pine were between two large section of gums.The story was that Koalas travel large distances between areas,think he/she was crossing between he areas of gums John

Thats quite interesting .. I've been going to Macquarie Woods for the last 16 years and never seen or heard of Koalas being around the camping ground area .. I know that recently there has been a large replanting of some areas just over the hill from the campsites. Even more recently, a good friend advised me that they had even taken down the signs that had now faded badly but had still provided some direction for travellers wishing to go to Macquarie Woods.
There is currently no water provided there anymore either .. was informed that the pump that fed it to the head tank on the hill had died .. Pity .. Its all gone downhill ever since the forestry dept lost the government subsidy ..
Shalom Earthlings, Have been to Macquarie Woods, As Bigs says,,Pity, what a magnificant place,, sad to see it go down hill,, thank goodness we still are able to have a choice,,, Free camping , or Cavavan/parks,,,,,, hope that choice, will stick around , long after I pop off the planet,, stay excited Nomads,,,,,enjoy the play ground,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Billeeeeeee
