Media Release: Forest Rescue 27th February 2012
Forest Rescue has successfully stopped work within the Warrup section six logging coupe again today, Monday 27th February 2012.
A Forest Rescue activist has tied up all logging machines within the Warrup logging coupe, and then suspended himself in a jarrah tree attached to the web like rope system, bringing work to a halt.
Forest Rescue has been battling the FPC and Warren Forest Products Services for nearly an entire month now.
“We are here to save the habitat of the West Australian state emblem, the Numbat, we have evidence that the Numbat lives here within the designated logging area. Not enough people know that there are about 1600 Black Panda’s left in the world, and less than 1000 Numbats left in our south west. Forest Rescue will not stop this campaign until we know that Warrup Forest will be saved from destruction.” Simon Peterffy said.
