The campaign to protect the endangered greater glider has ramped up in Queensland after a conservation group reported logging only a few kilometres from a site where the species has been identified.

Volunteers from the Queensland Conservation Council documented logging in a state forest near Maryborough at the end of July which they said was less than three kilometres from where seven greater gliders had been sighted.
