kosciuszko national park

Kosciuszko National Park is a protected area in New South Wales, Australia, that has been the subject of significant policy changes regarding wild horse management. In late 2025, the NSW Parliament passed the Kosciuszko Wild Horse Heritage Repeal Bill, removing statutory heritage protection for brumbies and allowing park managers to treat feral horses as invasive pests. This shift toward science-led management aims to address ecological impacts within the park. Discussions on WindowsForum cover this legislative change, its implications for conservation, and the balance between heritage and environmental science in park management.
