Quote:Are the Greens going to stop people laying down 1080 poison baits which take up to 4 days to kill some animals with a slow horrible death?
Is this the end of using 1080 along with introducing viruses to control rabbits?
Perhaps the Greens think like this idiot who was elected by idiots
Quote:Bill to manage stray cats introduced
Independent Member for Sydney Alex Greenwich today introduced a bill to ensure that sponsored trap-neuter-return and management (TNR) programs are lawful.
TNR programs involve desexing animals in a specific group or colony of unowned stray animals
and returning them to where they were found where they stop breeding, allowing the population to stabilise.
“In New South Wales there are a number of successful volunteer run programs but they may not be lawful because returning a non-native animal to where it came from could constitute the ‘abandoning’ or liberating’ offences.
The Animal Welfare (Population Control Programs) Bill would ensure that if a TNR program is sponsored by council, the Animal Welfare League NSW, RSPCA NSW or in the case of a national park, the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service, the program is lawful. The Minister must also approve the program in the case of pests outside the Sydney metropolitan area.
“This simple bill merely provides a framework for what already happens, giving volunteers legal certainty and potential access to grants while enabling the collection of data on TNR,” Mr Greenwich said.

Trapping them is not going to be easy the Vet bills for neutering them will cost taxpayers an outrageous amount then these animals will be released to continue driving our native species into extinction.
For smaller critters a .22lr will do the job around $60-80 for 500 rounds. They will be unaware someone has them in their sights and then it's lights out. Most rounds are faster than the speed of sound so they don't even hear it coming.
This lunacy from the inner city soy latte sipping LGBQTI idiots is why the Shooters Fishers and Farmers party rule a large portion of NSW west of the Blue Mountains.
