BellingenNSW<p>The great koala - glider national park - logging an environmentally significant area </p><p>"The Minns Labor government promised to create a koala national park before the state election more than two years ago, but has not taken a decision on the boundaries and has allowed logging to continue. Between April and July 2024, the surveys detected greater gliders at 82 sites. The government’s analysis estimated the planned park has between 29,693 and 44,211 gliders, with a mean estimate of 36,483."</p><p>“...Logging should cease in all state forest areas identified as containing greater gliders.”<br>&gt;&gt;<br><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/apr/17/endangered-greater-gliders-recorded-in-proposed-great-koala-national-park-in-nsw-as-logging-continues" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/australia-news</span><span class="invisible">/2025/apr/17/endangered-greater-gliders-recorded-in-proposed-great-koala-national-park-in-nsw-as-logging-continues</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/BiodiversityCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BiodiversityCrisis</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/conservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>conservation</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/harm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>harm</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/destruction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>destruction</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/NativeForests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NativeForests</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/koalas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>koalas</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/gliders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gliders</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/TheGreatKoalaNationalPark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheGreatKoalaNationalPark</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/BellingenLogging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BellingenLogging</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/NSWLogging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NSWLogging</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/LoggingImpacts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LoggingImpacts</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/FCNSW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FCNSW</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/ExtinctionCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ExtinctionCrisis</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/governance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>governance</span></a></p>
llewelly<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@KateShaw" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>KateShaw</span></a></span> 's newest episode features the Greater Gliders, which at first I assumed was kind of sugar glider. But no! The Greater Gliders are *not* closely related to sugar gliders and evolved gliding independently. Also featured is a bird wise enough to detoxify cane toads. Naturally it is an ibis, and related to the Egyptian Ibis (African Sacred Ibis), considered a symbol of wisdom in ancient times. : ) </p><p><a href="https://strangeanimalspodcast.blubrry.net/2025/02/24/episode-421-australian-animals/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">strangeanimalspodcast.blubrry.</span><span class="invisible">net/2025/02/24/episode-421-australian-animals/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a><br><a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/gliders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gliders</span></a><br><a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/marsupials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>marsupials</span></a></p>
