Koala habitat - between logging sites and highways
"Motorists have struck and killed two koalas on a busy freeway, weeks after authorities rejected calls for a small colony living in a nearby plantation to be ferried to safety."
"When timber workers began felling trees at the site in December, animal advocates had warned the four marsupials living there faced a “death sentence”. Because the plantation was surrounded by bare paddocks, they predicted the koalas would be struck by a truck or car while fleeing to the closest forest which lies on the other side of the road....Dead koalas were found within 500 metres of the plantation."
