Excellent piece of art - it's ART, not an advert. I know an ad when I see one, I used to be a copywriter!

It's ridiculous that this needs planning. It's on a private house on a residential street (not a main road). It's not offensive or inappropriate and does not have any reference to any business so how can it be advertising? It is an amazing artwork and should stay.

As a long time koala supporter, I'm interested in Koala Conservation. The Koala species are already endangered and need to be protected. A big threat to the koala species that I see are wild dogs. Study findings produced by The Moreton Bay Rail Link koala monitoring and management program, which placed tracking devices on 400 koalas in the area over two years. Results of the monitoring found that of the 400 koalas tracked, 130 were found dead mostly due to wild dog attacks. I would like to see all those wild dogs dealt with, I would like to see some intervention on the protection of habitats.
Another threat that I see are destruction of Koala habitat due to human activity, large number of koalas killed by high speeding vehicles and also attacks by domestic dogs. My suggestion is that we ban owners keeping fierce dogs near the koala habitat. Another threat that I see is when certain koala habitats are destroyed, they have to move somewhere else and they could easily get chlamydia which affects the fertility problems of koala. A cure of this disease need to be find in order to protect koala population.
In recent times, it has become increasingly clear that existing legislation is incapable of providing the level of protection needed to save the Koala and I am shocked to hear that the federal government have decided to allow the States to administer koala legislation, even though the Senate Report showed they were completely incapable of protecting the koala and its habitat.
If you look at the Bald Eagle act in USA, it has prevented the Bald Eagle from extinction. It is easy to draw parallels between the Bald Eagle and the Koala; they are both iconic to each country.
The document is written now and I am hoping that you will consider supporting the legislation because it is time that simple and common sense regulations were put in place to protect koala habitat. I extremely strongly support the Australian Koala Foundation and believe you should particip

It has been done very nicely. In no way an advertisement - no words so what it is deemed to be selling/promoting!

Totally ridiculous, only if you knew what it stood for could that mean something! Council need to get back to their real responsibilities and stop wasting our time and money!

I love this painting! It's so Australia and wonderful. It shows pride in what makes Australia so special. I wish I could see it on my street - it would make me smile every time. As a tourist twice already to your wonderful country, I would love to see things like this on my travels. We have murals by local artists like this on buildings in the U.S.. We consider them art and not advertising and an honor to have them. Please allow this wonderful artwork to remain and brighten the faces of others on the street.

Ridiculous bit of local authority pig-headedness. Even by its own definition this is not an advert. Shame on the person who saw fit to complain to the council about this.
