Conservation status of mammals and birds in southwestern Australian forests. II. Are there unstudied, indirect or long-term links between forestry practices and species decline and extinction?

Abstract: There is little evidence in the literature for past or current negative impacts of forestry practices on the mammals and birds of the south-west forests of Western Australia, although there are few relevant, detailed studies. For the conclusion of no major negative impact of forestry practices to be accepted, it must be shown that there are no indirect connections between forestry practices and established causes of fauna decline and that it is unlikely that forestry practices will have delayed impacts on the … Show more

“…These multiple uses include apiculture, firewood collection, mining, tourism, water production, conservation and timber production (Anon 1998). The use of forests for both conservation and timber production has been controversial with many conservationists and scientists claiming that current timber harvesting practices threaten the biodiversity of forests (Smith 1991;Norton and Mitchell 1994;Calver and Dell 1998). In response to these claims, many land management agencies have implemented strategies that are designed to maintain sustainable populations of animals in production forests.…”
