NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting an ongoing ground baiting program from 25th February 2026 to 25th August 2026. The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of feral animals including wild dogs and foxes.
The program will take place in Kosciuszko National Park and Clarkes Hill, Bogandyera and Jingellic Nature Reserves.
