Protecting Wildlife in Winter
Written by Phil Machin   

Local wildlife groups, such as the Native Animal Rescue Group (NARG), do their best to pick up the pieces when wildlife is injured or orphaned.  But the real secret is to stop animals coming into care in the first place - or worse, having to be euthanased when they are badly injured.

Council says stop culling

The NSW Wildlife Council says the indiscriminate and ad hoc culling of our wildlife is out of control.  And it’s not just kangaroos that are being killed off, but wombats, wallabies and flying foxes too.  Recent reports suggest the Department of Environment and Climate Change has issued about 200 licenses to allow farmers and rural landowners to shoot wombats on their properties. Stan Wood, Vice Chair of the NSW Wildlife Council, said “the exact figure is unknown as there is no central register kept of regionally issued licences; it hardly lends confidence to the concept that the Department has a strategic overview of what is occurring within their areas of responsibility, and what impacts current shooting may be having on wildlife populations.”  The head of National Parks and Wildlife Sally Barnes is quoted as saying there are few options and she doesn’t have a lot of choice. Such comments are not supported by any evidence in the form of environmental studies that the Council is aware of.
