Habitat species and old growth trees are more vulnerable to logging as access is improved. The birds that nest in their crevices, the epiphytes that hang from their branches and the invertebrates in the leaf litter are all adversely affected and biodiversity is reduced. Habitat fragmentation can be ameliorated to some extent by the provision of wildlife corridors connecting the fragments. These can be a river, ditch, strip of trees, hedgerow or even an underpass to a highway. Without the corridors, seeds cannot disperse and animals, especially small ones, cannot travel through the hostile territory, putting populations at greater risk of
Lesser sooty owl rats, but occasionally eat arboreal animals like birds and squirrel gliders. Lesser sooty owls live long and have low production rates with a breeding season from January to August. They are classified as common even though they have a limited habitat range. Lesser sooty owls are protected animals under Australian law. Lesser sooty owl The lesser sooty owl ("Tyto multipunctata") is an owl that lives in the wet tropics region of Australia. It is sometimes considered conspecific with the greater sooty owl, "Tyto tenebricosa", by some authors. The birds are then together commonly referred to as sooty owl. Like other
