Leadbeater's Possum Detection Report – 462-504-0011 'Loch Ness'
Patches of suitable habitat within VicForests scheduled logging coupe 462-504-0011 were actively surveyed to determine presence/absence of the Critically Endangered Leadbeater's Possum (Gymnobelideus leadbeateri). Leadbeater's Possum (LBP) was identified during this survey within the coupe. A Eucalyptus tree with an estimated diameter well over 2.5m was also detected during this investigation. This investigation concludes that VicForests have failed to identify LBP within the coupe and have scheduled logging in confirmed habitat for the critically endangered LBP.
