Summarization
The Victorian Labor government has declared Strathbogie State Forest as an Immediate Protection Area to protect the endangered Southern Greater Glider, but there are concerns that planned burns by DEECA_Vic and VicForests will harm the Gliders. Some people are calling for an end to logging in native forests and a national overhaul of planned burning practices. Others have conducted environmental surveys and identification training sessions, and are catching trout cod. There are also concerns about the impact of controlled burns on wildlife and ecosystems, and a need for nature to be preserved intact to maintain biodiversity.

1636626293579214850 | Strathbogie State Forest was recently declared an Immediate Protection Area by @VictorianLabor in recognition of its importance for protecting the nationally endangered Southern Greater Glider.

1639114990794964993 | Like many arboreal mammals the Southern #GreaterGlider can't run or fly away from #plannedburns. When habitat trees are destroyed, so are the gliders. #strathbogieforest @animaljusticeAU @FFMVic @FFMVic_Chief @IngridStitt @DEECA_Vic https://t.co/XUQqQe9gX5 | 42 |

No excuse for killing Greater Gliders. 🧵 https://t.co/FLx85wAlzs | 41 |
1639127499421659137 | @DEECA_Vic It would be even better if you could switch off the lights of VicForests forever. Your tree planting will be a bit of a farce for as long as the state government lets them do this to mature native forests. https://t.co/2GZ7mtylyA | 12 |
1638022198966497281 | We are very alarmed the Cobaws are subject to @FFMVic's broadacre "storm recovery" works.
