Santa visits Tas forest defender in tree

Written By Unknown on Senin, 24 Desember 2012 | 11.25

SHE may be living in a tree but even conservationist Miranda Gibson isn't away from Santa's line of sight.

The 30-year-old, who has spent the past year living at the top of an old eucalyptus in Tasmania's Mount Mueller, west of Hobart, got an early Christmas gift with Santa himself paying her a visit on Monday.

The big man came bearing presents from the local community, including some treats that Ms Gibson says she'll enjoy on Christmas day by herself.

It's her second Christmas in the eucalyptus campaigning to protect the surrounding forests from logging and persuade the federal government to nominate the area for world heritage protection.

Ms Gibson said while she was disappointed to be celebrating another Christmas by herself, she'll still be with family via Skype and will be unwrapping her presents with them remotely.

"I would have liked to spend it with my family this year," Ms Gibson told AAP on Monday.

"It's a shame that I have to be separated from them like last Christmas, but I guess one of the (other) hardest things is the uncertainty in the future of the forests and the legislative council, and not knowing how long it will be."

As for Santa, Ms Gibson said hopefully next year he would be dropping by when she finally made it back to terra firma.
