Locals furious as rangers - fly by

By Averyll Loft

Fraser Island locals are furious that a group of rangers are turning their noses up at millions of dollars worth of accommodation and demanding to be flown to and from Hervey Bay daily at taxpayer expense.

The rangers are reportedly unsatisfied with the entertainment factor of the World Heritage listed island and coincidentally the $2 million eco-cabins designed by a renowned architect.

What's worse, residents are finding it increasingly hard to gain help from the rangers at night in emergencies because there's "hardly any" left on the island, said Eurong resident Nigel Fremantle.
