The Victoria Government, Australia, is starting a bounty system, $10 a fox and $50 a wild dog;   http://new.dpi.vic.gov.au/agriculture/pests-diseases-and-weeds/pest-animals/fox-wild-dog-bounty/terms

That country is far the way forward i no a Army lad over there whos got a Pig dog and when his house was being robbed he let slip the dog and it set about the imposter and when the police turned up th

wouldnt there be a probem in finding the dead fox/ferrel dog after its taken the bait graham

i know a lad that went over to australia married with kids ended up getting divorced and turning gay funny thing that australia its just never done it for me.

wasnt it your lot that invented it comming out here with out women in the first place and trying to set up home.lol

 

good on you stabs the sooner she is gone the better.

the bounty is only in victroia the smallest state you know the one about the size of britian.

Not a real good idea going near animals poisened by 1080 the crap is sastemic or some thing like that and will kill what eats that animal and the one after that and the one after that and so on . stuff should be band.

strychnine baits were good in the 80s and before easly could take a hundred foxes over the weekend and no damage to the skin.

 

 

Strychnine is no different to 1080 in the fact that it is residual and it will kill the next animal that eats the carcass and so on

For all those saying they would mop up, visit Australia and then you will get SOME idea of the size of the country, and rural really means rural, you can drive for days without seeing another car :thumbs:

So true simoman makes it hard for any antis to find us when were out hunting.

 

never give it a thought when using strychnine though all baits had to be accounted for next day , the usual method was to shoot a couple of roos tie them to the back of the ute drive around the property tracks leaving a scent trail and someone sat in the back throw out a bait every 100yrds or so. next morning drove around same tracks picking up foxes and baits.

 

Meet a couple of old fellas one time out on a property we were shooting pigs on. they had come out to do the foxes as they called it. same thing they shot a couple of roos and draged them around the paddocks about 20meters in from the fence then every forth fence post they stopped and tied a set of 3 gang fishing hooks with a strip of meat on it to the fence next morning they went around with a .22 cal single shot and shot 50 foxes hooked up on the fences , they only did to paddocks. skins averaged 35 quid back in those days.
