Under sustained pressure, Forestry Corporation NSW has abandoned half the proposed logging area in Glenbog State Forest.

70 den trees and 750 wombat burrows are safe now!!

But this means they still intend to harm or kill the wildlife in the other half. It also means we have a lot more citizen science to do to save the rest.

If you haven't already, take action now. Link in bio.

“This is a national precedent of degrading outstanding, the best-of-the-best, top-shelf values in a park with a resort. You always put the resort away from the value, and that’s just common sense. Otherwise, you ruin the thing that is the attraction.”

- Keith Muir, Hon. Project Officer at Wilderness Australia

Will a glamping resort in the Gardens of Stone near Lithgow be a great new ecotourism drawcard or destroy the very thing the conservation reserve is meant to protect?

✅Yes, Forestry Corporation of NSW really said that logging plans for Glenbog State Forest will be good for wombats.

❎And no, that is not true.

Glenbog State Forest does not just contain a high density of Greater Gliders. There are also hundreds, if not thousands, of wombats that will suffer if the area is logged.

Locals say they have good reason not to trust the business behind the proposal.

We recently went back in Tallaganda State Forest with WWF-Australia and South East Forest Rescue to assess what the forest looks like 2 years after logging stopped.

Spoiler: it's doesn't look good.

Rather than new seedlings and signs of regrowth, we saw piles of timber debris that had turned grey after baking for years in the sun.

Satellite images show a major change in the forest before the discovery was made.

🚨Call to action!

Glenbog State Forest is about to be logged.

The forest is teeming with native wildlife, including greater gliders, yellow-bellied gliders, wombats, and many bird species like the gang-gang cockatoo.

✏Please help us put pressure on Forestry Corporation of NSW to leave this forest alone by taking action below.

As you know, Glenbog is one of the last remaining strongholds for the nationally endangered Greater Glider and provides critical habitat for a range of other threatened species including Yellow-bellied Gliders and Gang-gang Cockatoos.
