Wildlife Detective

Kids play WILDLIFE DETECTIVE to learn about how foresters protect animals in the forest. State forests in New South Wales are harvested for timber for all kinds of wood products you find in your home and at school every day. But before Forests NSW harvests any trees our foresters check out the forest for all kinds of animals. Foresters take extra special care to protect any rare and endangered species. They look for day-time animals such as koalas and parrots, and night-time animals such as owls and possums. Foresters also look for animal clues such as feathers and burrows that tell them what animals might be living there.
