Professor Dickman first estimated the density of mammal, bird and reptile populations across NSW. He then multiplied the total amount of land destroyed by fire, producing a result of 480 million animals killed.The Prime Minister failed to prepare for the bushfire crisis, former NSW Fire and Rescue commissioner Greg Mullins says, after he ignored advice from ex-fire chiefs earlier this year about this summer's monster fire season.
