i agree with some of your points but i do think your going just slightly over the top , i personally dont think there out to abolish all hunting in NSW there not going to try and stop old bill and bob from shooting a fox or rabbit on their property , if they ever do i will gladly eat my words
you earlier said that we in nsw are protecting ferals like foxes etc , can you please show me any kind of document thats says any type of introduced species is protected within our state ?
just because there not listed as feral doesnt automatically mean there protected , perhaps you need to get a better understanding of what a protected species is , because as far as i know i can still shoot any rabbit or fox i see on any land that i have permission by the land holder to shoot in
That's all well and fine thomasssss and I appreciate your points.
The way I see it (not that I should care as this is NSW legislation that I'm talking about and I live in Vic) but if you're preventing the shooting of feral animals on public land then you are effectively protecting it. National Parks and Reserves and State Parks etc have been sanctuaries for feral pest species for decades thanks to the Greens and like-minded Anti's (So no wonder the problem is well out of control). Private land and shooting is governed by land size with those figures diminishing all the time.
You might want to check again with your local cop shop to whether you're doing the right thing and not breaking the law shooting where you are.
As far as I'm concerned if you can't remove something like a feral pest from the other 765 other National Parks etc - it's protected! Plain and simple. You can't do anything about them being there. You can't trap them, poison them or shoot them. Hell, you probably can't even pat them. So what are they? They're Protected! Please explain to me how they aren't?

Sorry, just to add:

What sort of nuff-nuff State allows this sort of crap to go on?
