Don't Let Logging Destroy The Leadbeater's Possums' Forest Habitat
The critically endangered Leadbeater's Possum makes its home in the hollows of the Mountain Ash trees that thrive in Victoria's highlands.
But right now, logging companies are clear-felling these forests – knocking down tree after tree to make copy paper. Until their rediscovery in 1961, these small marsupials were believed to extinct. We can't let them disappear now.
There's good news – we can help save Leadbeater's Possums' forest home by protecting it as a national park. But we must act quickly
The proposed Great Forest National Park would connect and protect 355,000 hectares of tall mountain ash forests in the Central Highlands of Victoria. It would help save critically endangered wildlife, protect our precious water catchments and carbon stores and create a wonderful natural playground just an hour from the city.
Sign the petition today and urge Premier Daniel Andrews to create the Great Forest National Park and protect the Leadbeater's Possums' forest home.
Subject: Please create the Great Forest National Park
Dear Premier,
CC: Treasurer, Environment Minister and Agriculture Minister,
The forests of Victoria's Great Dividing Range are an essential source of life. They filter the water we drink and the air we breathe, and are a haven for critically endangered wildlife like the Leadbeater's Possum.
Yet all along the Range, magnificent forests continue to fall. Valued only for their fibre, our forests are being clear-felled, wood-chipped, bulldozed and burnt.
We have an historic opportunity to secure the future of our forests, your leadership is needed to create the Great Forest National Park and to safeguard Victoria's precious forests.
