Shooters in national parks

OH, my God
where do they come from ?

"These dheads, which includes politicians, have not learnt from history that is exactly why we now have fox problems, wild pigs, feral cats and dogs and the like in National Parks"

foxes to pigs........ did the law say ANYTHING about these creatures ?

GO AWAY AND READ a bit before being silly like Comrade Goon

The idea is sound happens all over the world : NZ USA Canada even in Victoria Australia.
At present the NP are suppose to eradicate feral species at a cost to the tax payer , if this Bill gets passed, Private Registered Hunters will be allowed to hunt in the National Parks to help conserve our native species from being overrun by introduced species " Pigs Deer Goats Foxes Rabbits etc." this will cost the tax payer zero.
Permits,set areas to hunt and number of hunters can all be used.. so all persons can enjoy our National Parks walkers hikers and hunters.... Become a greeny and shoot a feral animal to save our native animals and over browsed bushland ...

the wild pig is all over Australia, except Tassie and even pigs wouldn't want to live there.

So, lets see what the flapping jaws will say, if we get an out break of Foot and Mouth.
then see the carry on !

Good to see the community helping to clean up this introduced poisonous ridiculous pest.

Cane toad roundup at Yamba.

Wild pigs can be quite frightening if you don't have a weapon with you.

I'm all for getting out the 303 and having a bit of target practice . Done in the past and its bloody good value.

I would too, if I could find the bolt for my .303, and then find where I hid the ammo, and then get the rifle out of my gun safe, and then clean all the rust off it - maybe by that time, all the pigs would have been done in by most astute and capable shooters than I.

I guess they don't load them up with bungers or string tom thumbs around them anymore?

When we were kids, a golfing iron was the weapon of choice.

Reason I was going on about introduced species in the Shooters party Bill.

"The Shooters Party has tabled a bill in the NSW Parliament today that could see foreign animals and birds introduced to private land for recreational shooting.

The NSW Game and Feral Animal Control Amendment Bill allows the establishment of private game parks, and permits their operators to introduce bird species that don't already exist in the state."

As birds and other animals do not know that the boundary ends at that fenceline........

So dheads they remain. By the way, the 303 is so passe try this number instead:

Ernest had the right idea.

Red Goon
AGAIN another dill that hasn't a clue what its talking about
BUT
Flapping its jaws wildly !

Pigs or no pigs, personally when I go bushwalking in the national parks, last thing I want is a stray bullet in my head from some

stray bullets.
dill there are no such things, go to a gun shop, if your brave and ask for a packet of stray bullets !

You in your lack of wisdom may not want to know it
but
Victoria has had shooting to control ferals in the NP's for years, sorry to shock you, when you know so very little about the subject and so far no one has found any of your stray bullets, Canada, US, Africa and so the list goes on,
but
Some Hunters, they have found your bushwalkers smoking funny stuff... guess that doesn't even count nor does it when they come back to the cars /trucks and drive away !!!!!!!!!!!!!

The NPWS can control ferals via poison and controlled shooting if need be.
They HAVE NOT YET......... so where do you get your openly stupid ideas from ?

Most shooters leave the piglets so there are more pigs to come back for later. Please
for someone who knows bug...all about the subject your making dumb wild claims !
Where and how many.
AND comrade, why didn't you report this to the MPs and Police ?
Myself, I have not heard of anyone, but thats only over better than 50 years but you who knows nothing, bug....all about the shooting sports know all.

I think not, matey, best you go back to the Party and ask them what you should say, before you look even more foolish

Comrade Goon, best you run off away, bye

No need for personal abuse - it is for discussion. A few factual errors in your post.

I live in Sydney NSW and 15 minutes walk from my house is Lane Cove National Park and adjoining it Boronia Park. Periodically there are signs up about keeping dogs out of these areas as baiting of feral animals is occurring. At times there are also signs up about keeping out between dusk and dawn due to night time shooting. So there is one factual error.

"Some hunters have even deliberately released piglets and young pigs into scrub in rural areas! This has not helped control efforts and pig distribution has increased rapidly since the 1970s." This quote is from the Queensland Government. http://www.epa.qld.gov.au/nature_conservation/wildlife/threats_to_wildlife/pig.html

And as for no accidental shootings (stray bullets) in National Parks, you might want to ask Dick Cheney about that. Another factual error.

If you want to rant, you might like to put a "fiction" tag at the start of the post, to make it clear the content is such.
