Other planned events: Notice of 1080 program
NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting an ground baiting program from Monday 1 October 2025 to Mon 27 October 2025. The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of wild dogs and foxes.
The program will take place in Taringa Nature Reserve, Burral Yurrul Nature Reserve and Burral Yurrul National Park
The program is designed to minimise predator impacts on wildlife, especially threatened species, and to minimise impact of wild dogs on neighbouring stock.
Signs will be placed at the entry to the baiting location. Domestic pets are not permitted in NSW National Parks managed lands. Pets and working dogs may be affected (1080 is lethal to cats and dogs). Pets and working dogs must be restrained or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location. In the event of accidental poisoning seek immediate veterinary assistance.
Please contact the local Barwon NPWS area office for more information on 6792 7300
