Rampant land clearing of native bushland in Australia's largest state is pushing at-risk species to the brink of extinction, conservationists say.
Led by the Conservation Council of WA, environmentalists are calling for sweeping nature law reforms to protect Western Australia's unique and dwindling fauna and flora.
"In the first five months of 2026, we've seen over 51,000 hectares of native vegetation approved for clearing," Conservation Council of WA executive director Matt Roberts said on Thursday.
