Wombat Talk

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we chat with Andrew Wong, forest ecologist, activist, and Greater Glider expert from Wilderness Australia, as we head deep into the far southern highlands of NSW, where a cloud forest is about to be logged — and over 900 wombat burrows and 126 Greater Glider den trees are in the firing line. With logging machinery potentially weeks away, Andrew explains what makes Glenbog State Forest irreplaceable, why the rules designed to protect its wildlife are failing, and what you can do right now to stop it.Thank you for joining us at Wombat TalkCredits: Wombat Talk is presented by The Wombat Protection Society of Australia’s Chair Amanda Cox and Director Marie Wynan, lover of all things wombatsSpecial thanks to: Andrew Wong from Wilderness AustraliaSign our petition: https://c.org/YJJGTrpbbt
