Wombat Forest Care have had success writing to politicians about Victorian Environmental Assesment Council (VEAC) matters. They have started a letter writing campaign to prompt the government to legislate the Central West Parks without delay.
Can you write to Maree Edwards, The Hon. Steve Dimipoilos and The Hon Jacinta Allan to legislate Mt Cole-Pyrenees and Wellsford Forests immediately, as recommended by VEAC?
These forests contain important plant and animal commumnities. According to VEAC, the variety of vegetation types in the Mount Cole–Pyrenees block provide habitat for a high diversity of flora and fauna, with 51 rare or threatened plants and 48 threatened animal species having been recorded here. Seventeen species that are part of the threatened Victorian temperate woodland bird community have been recorded in this block.
The Wellsford block provides habitat for a high diversity of flora and fauna including 32 rare or threatened species and a further seven members of the threatened woodland bird community.
