Oats and lucerne show growth. cream quality improved due to cold storing conditions, though second grade supplies remain small. Prospects for late winter look favorable with adequate rainfall and growing crops, though cream stocks remain low but not at last year’s lows.

Mr CAM Reid of Lone Pine Koala and Native Fauna Sanctuary Queensland argues koalas are not doomed in Queensland and may number at least four million. He counters West Pennant Hills Koala Farm proprietor Noel Burnet claiming near doom, noting biannual habitat visits show continued bears in natural range.
