Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the status of the koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) and describe the tree species used by koalas on the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales in areas earmarked as koala strongholds around Tenterfield and north of Glen Innes. This information should assist Northern Tablelands Local Land Services in making informed management decisions. The study aimed in particular in establishing, for the area of interest, 1/ presence/absence at random sites, 2/ the intensity of habitat utilisation and 3/ tree species that are used by koalas (from where koala scats were found). The priority areas covered in this report were identified by the Northern Tablelands Koala Recovery Strategy. Especially, random points targeted Travelling Stock Routes which management can be influenced by NT LLS.
