"Being here in this forest is so powerful. Tonight, the endangered Masked Owl perched near the camp. How can Forestry Tasmania even contemplate destroying this ecosystem?

A Wedge-tailed Eagle flew right above my tree this afternoon and we saw a juvenile Tasmanian devil the first night we were here. Where will these precious creatures go after this forest is destroyed?"
