Instead, brumbies in sensitive parts of the park are to be trapped and then rehomed. GALLERY: After the Australian east coast was battered with gale force winds and massive swells this week, forgotten relics of a golden age era - from Bondi to Coogee, Manly and up to Newcastle - reveal remnants that were hidden just beneath the surface. With the brumbies in Koscuisko found to be the same genetic stock as most other horses in Australia, and with 400,000 feral horses around Australia, this concern is unfounded. "If everybody sits down and talks and starts telling the truth, there may be a way forward," Mr Lanyon said. "We have an opportunity to have a feral-free Australia — we're an island. "With these really high densities of horses, we're seeing streamlines change, swamps being trampled in and the whole landscape becoming more like a grazing paddock," he said. "The behaviour of the pro-feral crowd is disgusting, and Barilaro's created this," he added. When Richard Swain describes the condition of Kosciuszko National Park, he uses words like "disgusting", "disrespectful" and "a mess".

School kids across NSW have been writing moving letters to Aussie veterans to read on Anzac Day after ceremonies were cancelled due to coronavirus. However, the cultural heritage report prepared for the NPWS finds no definitive evidence this was the case, simply that it was "possible" some went into active service. "Future generations will hold us to account for the decisions we're making now," Mr Swain said. Last month Mr Barilaro called for a halt to the planned removal of wild horses from three sensitive areas within the park in July, claiming it would be "reckless" to remove horses without an additional survey after the summer's bushfire season. "I'm afraid we're going to have to go into more direct control methods and naturally, shooting horses is much cheaper and can be done pretty efficiently.". GALLERY: Swimmers and surfers flock to some of Sydney’s most famous beaches as they reopen Bondi and Bronte to the public following coronavirus-related closures. In comparison to Walers, brumbies in Kosciuszko are not genetically distinct from most other feral horse populations or domestic horses. It’s not everyday when a lion can be gently kissed on the nose. AEST = Australian Eastern Standard Time which is 10 hours ahead of GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). What they don't agree on, though, is what to do about them. "We've ruled out aerial culling. But Professor Geoff Hope, a scientist at the Australian National University, said aerial surveys had shown few brumbies were directly impacted by the bushfires. "I do think they need to reduce them but not by aerial shooting or shooting of any kind: they shouldn't suffer.". "The problem has just gotten bigger," Mr Swain said.

Species like the southern corroboree frog and the Guthega skink are already threatened with extinction and are vulnerable to impacts of horses. However, the cultural aspects of brumbies in the Snowy region can be maintained with, for example, brumby herds held on private property.

These astonishing drone images taken by Daily Telegraph photographer Toby Zerna show the unprecedented impact coronavirus COVID-19 has had on Sydney as the city appears eerily abandoned. In fact, the horses at the Sydney Olympics were Australian stock horses, a breed largely established from 15 founding horses selected in the 1970s. Why do the brumbies of Kosciuszko evoke such bitter disagreement? The amazing drone images show the impact of the coronavirus lockdown on roads and transport in Australia’s largest city.

Mr Barilaro does not agree Commonwealth intervention is needed and neither does Mr Lanyon. "A lot of people come here to see the brumbies — they're a tourist attraction," Linda Squire, who has lived in Adaminaby for 23 years, said. Survey data collected by the Australian Alps Liaison Committee last year found the population was booming; up from around 5,000 in 2014 to 20,000. "What's happening up here is disrespect of landscape and a non-courageous decision.". "Sadly, at the end of the day, Kosciuszko National Park suffers because we can't get a broad consensus on any particular issue.". Barilaro told Parliament that "culling is cruel and barbaric", citing statistics from Guy Fawkes National Park. "For the first time, we're getting some level of harmony in finding a way to reduce those horse numbers to a level that is acceptable by the broader community.". The problem, according to him, is the thousands of feral horses roaming through the iconic alpine landscape, trampling sensitive ecosystems and pushing already threatened native species further towards extinction. "We're becoming known as a beautiful country where all our native animals are becoming extinct really rapidly so I think it's important we do whatever we can to change that.
