The NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) will be conducting an ongoing baiting program from Thursday 7 August 2025 to Thursday 5 February 2026. The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of wild dogs and foxes.

  • Dalgety/Paupong
  • Corrowong/Tombong/Merriangaah

Baiting programs will also take place in nature reserves including:

This includes the following sections of Kosciuszko National Park:

  • Moonbah
  • Ingebyra
  • Paupong
  • Numbla Vale
  • Corrowong

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.
