BellingenNSW<p>After 25 years, logging and bushfires, a greater glider has been spotted in Deongwar state forest</p><p>"It will take more than a century for the glider habitat to be restored."</p><p>"“These animals need trees at least 150 years old; when you log a forest you change it in pretty dramatic ways,” says Prof David Lindenmayer from the Australian National University."</p><p>"Extensive selective logging removes a large proportion of mature, hollow-bearing trees that dozens of species rely on for survival. Their absence also alters the forest’s microclimate, increasing ambient temperatures and the risk of fire, Lindenmayer says. That’s bad news for greater gliders because they are very heat-sensitive animals,” he says."</p><p>"In the 90s greater gliders were common along Australia’s eastern seaboard. Habitat fragmentation and encroachment by urban sprawl, the felling of mature hollow-bearing trees and global heating have caused their population to decline rapidly."</p><p>"..The logging of state forests such as Deongwar will “leave a scar on the landscape for ever”."<br>&gt;&gt;<br><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/may/01/after-25-years-logging-and-bushfires-a-greater-glider-has-been-spotted-in-deongwar-state-forest" 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">/2024/may/01/after-25-years-logging-and-bushfires-a-greater-glider-has-been-spotted-in-deongwar-state-forest</span></a><br><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/gliders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gliders</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/LoggingIndustry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LoggingIndustry</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/biodiversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>biodiversity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/restoration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>restoration</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/DeongwarSF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DeongwarSF</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/StopNativeForestLogging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopNativeForestLogging</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/destruction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>destruction</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/extinction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>extinction</span></a> makers</p>
