Federal Court grants final injunction to protect habitats from logging

On 27 May 2020, the Federal Court of Australia issued final injunctions to protect 66 forest areas, homes to the threatened Greater Gilder and critically endangered Leadbeater’s Possum, from logging by the State’s logging agent VicForests.

This is the first time the Federal Court has granted a final injunction to prevent logging of a threatened wildlife habitat and the first time Victoria’s logging industry - the largest in Australia - has been held to account for its devastating impacts on endangered wildlife.
