How much logging can koalas take?

"We located koalas for capture using day searches, nocturnal spot-lighting, koala detection dogs and dawn drone flights. Once located, koalas were either captured by trapping or flagging by a tree climber using an extended pole...Animals were anesthetized to allow appropriate fitting of collars."

"Koalas tolerate disturbance ranging from selective to more intensive" logging.

Climate and wildlife destroying logging burns are not specific to NSW logging sites.

"Right now, the Tasmanian Government is carrying out post-logging burns. These infernos damage the climate and environment, kill wildlife and harm human health. Forest Watch is exposing the destruction that Forestry Tasmania is hiding from you. Monitoring native forest logging and burning in Lutruwita / Tasmania."
