Koala forest to be logged for wood chips http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1264369714
LOGGING is set to start within weeks in a forest that supports the last known koala colony on the NSW far south coast.
The NSW Government is yet to release data from a comprehensive survey of koala habitat and population in Mumbulla and Murrah state forests, near Tathra, even though some trees have been marked for removal.... One source described a map of the area that had been drawn and redrawn in search of a compromise between felling trees and maintaining enough forest to allow the koalas to survive.... The logging operation, due to begin in early March, would involve taking some high-quality timber and some timber for woodchips.
Most of the timber from felled trees in the region goes to a mill in Eden, which exports woodchips to Japan.

With these chips, the koalas are forced to go "all in." Holding a pair of threes.
