Red eared sliders in campbelltown

[cma_369]

Hey, i just thought i'd let every body know that a month or so ago i managed to capture a red eared slider at rosemeadow pond.
Also I was just down at eaglevale pond doing a little bit of carp fishing, When this red eared slider surfaced around me around 10 times, everytime the little bugger managed to evade my net. Seems we have a little problem with theese pesky things in my local area. Has any one else had any sitings of them around campbelltown and is there anywhere i could report the sitings?

They are that common they might as well be considered native these days.

You can report them to NPWS.
They may be common but they still decimate the enviroment, so need to be removed.
There is a dog that sniffs them out.

I wasn't aware that they were that common, atleast they were in the duckponds where its a feral animal sanctuary basically anyway. I'd hate to come across them in the georges river where iv'e come across some very nice short-necked turtles.
