A composite of two nights of drone flying over compartments 10, 12 and 18 in Tuckers Nob State Forest - all areas zoned 'plantation' by #NSWForestry, and slated for clearing. 
The results shows that this is one of the densest populations of wild #Koala in New South Wales. 
Yet these forests are excluded from the #NSWGovernment's so-called 'Great Koala National Park - which is why we need a #GreaterKoalaPark - free from logging, because #PlantationsAreHabitatToo!
