Koala Habitat Restoration and Protection in the Northern Tablelands, NSW - P23-5736

The koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) is listed as Endangered under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. This project will deliver on-ground actions to improve the quality, quantity, and connectivity of koala habitat in the Northern Tablelands, prioritising areas adjacent to the Armidale Area of Regional Koala Significance (ARKS). The project will address the key threats to koalas including habitat loss, fragmentation, and degradation of habitat which are considered primary ecological threatening processes to koalas. Working with local landholders, land managers and community, this revegetation project will establish 20 hectares of new koala habitat. This project will improve the extent, quality and connectivity of the nationally listed koala’s habitat and reduce local threats.
