Bungabbee State Forest Explained

Bungabbee State Forest is a 955 hectare state forest about 15 kilometres north east of Casino in New South Wales.[1] Bungabbee Nature reserve is a 169 hectare section in the middle north of the state forest that was protected in 1999.[2]

The forest was scheduled in 2019 for logging in 2021, but this was delayed or stopped following community reaction,[3] [4] [5] including concern about protecting greater glider habitat.[6]
