    Like new Zealand the thing missing here is venison pies in a red wine sauce.

    What do you expect given that hunters have been demonised to the point that there are not enough left to keep the feral animal populations under control.

    The Feral Pig problem is very very bad in QLD around the Macadamia orchards in particular, trapping works initially but they work it out pretty quickly.

    My parents now have wild deer regularly on their property on the edge of Launceston. The problem is, hunters were given strict quotas to allow deer population growth when they were introduced. That still applies, even though the feral numbers are exploding and the number of hunters has dropped off a lot in recent decades.

    The notion these creatures are sweet and harmless, built up by countless hollywood movies has to be addressed by raw damage images so we can come to the realisation they have to be removed. Great production on this segment ABC.

      You are one of these miss informed radicals that want ever introduced animal removed from the landscape but them selves advising the public on un founded amounts of money lost from farm production and damage to the environment never publishing the thousands of dollars hunting adds to the economy or the fact that some farmers charge hunters to shoot the deer on their property deer have been here as long as white settlers and should be managed not eradicated

    Just let hunters in. And change laws so the meat can be processed

    Pig Brig is very popular in the United States I am surprised it is not used in Australia as a pig trap the science behind it is amazing.

    • @FeralPestControl
      @FeralPestControl 7 месяцев назад +2

      Agree. The Pig Brig design allows the trap to continue working even when pigs are caught and it does not have to monitored (remotely) and triggered to close, unlike the trap door approach shown here. So effective and working whilst you sleep 🙂

    Foxes, hares, pigs and goats are huge feral issues (not to mention feral dogs & cats) in western NSW, trouble is, nothing gets done until the populations are way out of control and severe damage is caused. You do the right thing and report to LLS, NSW Parkes and local councils and sweet FA is done.🤔

    • @nicholaswirth1011

      Cant do that in QLD

      Humans are the ferals never seen a deer clearing forests , damming water ways , building thousands of houses, fishing the oceans and adding to climate change 😂

    Tricks and traps
    It would be a good little project for Duntroon to observe i think In outsmarting a animal with an fair degree of intelligence in how it survives and what works, why it works how to improvise and integrate in way they can understand

  • @user-iv3ow5lx8s

    Just have a look at the program in the USA way that millions of feral Hogs are trapped, - and the scale of damage is done to farmland and crops. So, let's start that here in Australia before the wild bores take over our farms.

    When has Australia or New Zealand ever succeeded in a eradicating a feral animal problem?

  • @brianlau4207
    @brianlau4207 6 месяцев назад

    What do they do with the pigs once they trap them? Are they sold to someone else? Does it become a luau situation immediately after?

  • @mariokery7155
    @mariokery7155 7 месяцев назад +2

    Drones are your answer to solving the feral cats and foxes and deer, pig's. It's modifying the drones to identify, like facial recognition and night vision, heat sensors and the drones can eliminate the pest species.

    It is a good thing the Australians did not import grizzly bears, tigers and lions a 150 years ago.

    • @LaurenceDay-d2p
      @LaurenceDay-d2p 2 месяца назад

      The tigers would have controlled the camel population.

    Harvesting individual animals for select restaurants I can’t see impacting wild animal numbers. Given the flighty nature of Deer, it’s not like culling mobs of kangaroos. Most hunters will see the logic being illogical.

    • @scottthompson9220
      @scottthompson9220 4 дня назад

      Mate 52 thousand deer licenses sold in Victoria in 2024 I recon there having more of an impact on the deer population than broadcasted

  • @dilligaf2818
    @dilligaf2818 3 месяца назад +1

    Hunters wont try to elimate any ferals cause they wont have nothing to hunt in their area. I have known people to let pigs go in areas closer to where they live so they dont have to travel as far to hunt ...go figure.

  • @Duke-le6vy
    @Duke-le6vy 4 дня назад

    The government needs to allow us to hunt in National Parks. With large tracts of land off limits to hunting deer and pigs have safe refuge.

  • @jessdatip4152

    This is nothing new. Trapping hogs has been done this way in the US for many years.

    • @markharris4421

      Its certainly not new in Australia either mate.

  • @royhay5741
    @royhay5741 7 месяцев назад +3

    Dingoes and livestock guardian donkeys for those dingoes. If the piglets are striped, it means they're native Papuan hogs, like those in the Wet Tropics.

    As vegan and Animal Rights Activists we want pigs and deer declared native species like the dingo which has only been here for thousands of years not tens of thousands of years. What's the difference?

  • @michaelp761

    Yep, too many deer in the UK, causing forest damage & road havoc. Another species that’s out of control.

    Why did the government let deer in for hunting ...and then we say its an alarming rate at which they are spreading ?
    We had rabbits and foxes and cats ...so who doesnt know the risks of introducing a new animal ?

    • @scottthompson9220
      @scottthompson9220 4 дня назад

      Deer have nearly been here for as long as white settlers and they certainly haven’t changed the landscape like the plague of humans have 😂
