Last week, Helen Oakley was hiking at Cape Bridgewater, Victoria, when she stumbled upon dozens of dead koalas. As she discovered, a recent logging operation in the state’s south-west had destroyed the local koalas’ natural habitat.
The Portland resident found many koalas dead and decomposed, while others who had survived the ‘massacre’ were distressed and displaced.
“Australia should be ashamed,” Helen tearfully recounted in a Facebook video that has since gone viral. “They’ve bulldozed 140 acres down and just killed all of our koalas…
“Nobody has done anything. Look at the destruction they’ve done,” Helen continued. The local resident shared photos of the koalas to her Facebook, showing the state the natural fauna had been left in.
