The New South Wales government has started doing food-drops, trickling thousands of kilograms of carrots and sweet potato from above to feed the state’s colonies of brush-trailed rock wallabies. The NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service commenced ‘Operation Rock Wallaby’ on Saturday to combat the at-risk nature of the state’s marsupial population.... ...as part of a New South Wales government initiative to support the wildlife affected by the bushfire crisis The parks service has spent the past week completing the food drops for rock wallaby colonies in the Capertree and Wolgan valleys, Yengo National Park, the Kangaroo Valley, and around Jenolan, Oxley Wild Rivers and Curracubundi national parks. In total they have dropped more than 2,200kg of fresh vegetables for the critters. New South Wales Environment Minister Matt Kean said while the aninmals have managed to flee the fires they’re left without a source of food.

UPDATE Pg 46: 'Liquid gold' and 'a sight for sore eyes' are some of the ways people are describing the rainfall National Parks are usually places where fire control is not allowed and as a result you get things like the Yellowstone wildfires. Logging should have been going on anyplace in Australia that has many trees. Looks like Australia has been working to create a big ass disaster, which is what they got. Time for some new management at the highest levels. [link to www.naharnet.com] Australian 'Megablaze' Brought under Control Exhausted firefighters said they had finally brought Australia's largest "megablaze" under control Monday, as wet weather promised to deliver much-needed respite for countryside ravaged by bushfires. New South Wales firefighters said they finally had the upper hand in the fight against the vast Gospers Mountain fire on Sydney's northwestern outskirts, which has been burning out of control for almost three months. Visiting the area on Monday, New South Wales Rural Fire Service commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons said there was a "small area of burning still to complete" but the "containment prognosis looks promising." The fire seared an area of national park three times the size of Greater London and lit several connected blazes totalling over 800,000 hectares -- an area larger than Austria. |
