Brumbies live within the Tuan and Toolara State Forests located in the Kin Kin/Maryborough/Tin Can Bay/Rainbow Beach area (approximately 2 ½ hours drive north of Brisbane). Unfortunately the brumbies are being hit by cars and trucks posing a threat to motorists along the numerous 100km/hr roads that pass through the forests. In April – May 2009 within a 7-day period four separate incidents occurred resulting in extensive vehicle damage and death of horses.
Forestry Plantation Queensland (FPQ) is making a concerted effort to address the problem humanely by proposing a modest trial program to trap and remove herds from high risk areas (ie along the Maryborough Cooloola Road) to reduce the risk of horse – vehicle collisions. The brumbies will be transported to a property in Cootharaba for rehoming by SEQ Brumby Association Inc. Read More
