Emissions target dumped after a mistake in a newspaper interview, Guardian Australia understands; staff fear job losses over student caps
Morning everyone. Our exclusive lead story today reveals how Peter Dutton did not intend to change the Coalition’s commitment to emissions targets but misspoke in a newspaper interview – and decided to stick with that position anyway. We also have news of a huge bleaching event on the Great Barrier Reef, the story behind Julian Assange’s release, the antelope migration that has stunned wildlife experts, and why Mona’s new exhibition is annoying.
Tiang, a species of antelope, form part of the migration between the Boma and Badingilo national parks in South Sudan– the largest migration of land mammals anywhere on Earth. It is more than double the size of the celebrated annual, which involves about 2m wildebeest, zebra and gazelle. “Seeing these animals here at such scale is something I could have never fathomed still existed on the planet,” said one wildlife expert.
