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.
