I mentioned in my last post that lately I've been following the koala vulnerability vs. logging issue locally a bit more closely than I have previously.

Came across an excellent series of articles on my local ABC website. This item is the latest one posted (yesterday). Gives voice to both sides and doesn't push an agenda itself. The links provided in each item are very useful too, I'm learning a lot that I'll be able to make use of in the future.

The koala survey links are most interesting, there's a video showing a NP officer as well as folk from Forests NSW conducting field surveys.

Koala survey - RGBSAT technique - NPWS and NSW OEH

Koala Survey - Forests NSW - Transect technique

Also recommend the related link to the Logging the South East Forests pages. Interesting to actually get behind the scenes and see things with my own eyes at the time they occur in a sense. Parties from both sides all make good sense with a lot of what they argue and say, which is why I have real trouble knowing exactly what to think. At least getting fact and not fiction may help me reach an informed stance one way or the other.

Sorry so much of the content is video, a real shame there aren't transcripts available as well.
