Other planned events: Wild Dog Baiting in Budawang National Park
NSW National Parks is doing a wild dog baiting program using 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) baits in Budawang National Park. The program runs from Wednesday 25th June to Friday 31st October 2025.
This baiting program is in accordance with the 1080 Wild Dog Baiting provisions in the Pesticide Control (1080 Liquid Concentrate and Bait Products) Order 2017.
We are taking precautions to minimise the risk to domestic pets and other non-target species. Please remember, it is an offence under the National Parks and Wildlife Act to allow domestic animals into national parks and nature reserves. It's also an offence to interfere with the wild dog control program.
There will be 1080 baiting notification signs at track heads in each area, with the start and finish dates of the baiting program.
For more information, please call the NPWS Ulladulla office on 02 4454 9500.
