We're losing hundreds and hundreds of koalas to these fires.

So we have to manage around the fire itself and that will take consultation

with rural fire service, national parks;

roundtable discussions to come up with plans so that we can

actually manage this threat.

Because although we got a lot of other threats, you know,

we've got diseases and dogs and it's the same,

it hasn't been the front of my mind because we've been dealing with

all these other threats for koalas.

But when these fires come through at this scale, you know,

these other threats are minuscule in comparison to the impact

it's having on all of these populations.
