Do much on the reds up your way?

We had a good season with a few good heads left to grow another year.

Actually, I am just coming back to hunting after about a 15-20 yr break. In thos days I was a rabbit / roo man. Unfortunately, roo's are now conserved so you have to get tail tags to cull them. The H&C group here in SE Qld have a few projects where we go in with Researchers / rangers and keep the feral pigs, dogs, cats, rabbits, hares, foxes to a sustainable level (without wiping them out and affecting the local food chains.

If you go to the SSAA website they have a blurb there about it. I have done my theory test and now have to do a shooting test

Cheers,

Mark
