Protect Endangered Greater Gliders

Conservationists have uncovered planned logging in a forest near Maryborough where a high number of endangered central and southern greater gliders have been recorded.

Logging in this part of Queensland should have ended in 2024 if the 25-year agreement between State Government, timber and conservation sectors in 1999 was honoured.

Instead of logging slowing down in the habitat of the beautiful greater glider, it’s ramping up. A deal is a deal, we want the Crisafulli Government to honour it and protect these forests forever, not endorse a final smash and grab from invaluable endangered species habitats.

Premier David Crisafulli, please take these steps to protect endangered greater gliders:
