Other planned events: Notice of pest animal control program - aerial baiting operations (Poison 1080).
NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting ongoing aerial baiting programs. Aerial baiting is scheduled between the periods of Monday 25th September until Tuesday 3rd of October 2023.
The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of feral animals including wild dogs and foxes.
Aerial baiting will occur within Goonoo National Park & State Conservation Area, and also within Coolbaggie Nature Reserve, Cobbora SCA, and Breelong 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 Central West Area NPWS area office for more information on 02 6332 7640.
