The Great Koala National Park (GKNP) has been announced, a historic victory for 12,000 koalas and more than 100 threatened species. The NSW Government committed to transferring 176,000 hectares of State Forest into the national park estate. But the park has still not been formally legislated, leaving its long-term protection uncertain. And Forestry Corporation continues to log other critical native forests across NSW, with repeated breaches of environmental laws exposed only by vigilant local communities and conservation groups. This is a moment of hard-won progress, and exactly when sustained pressure matters most.
