Notice of 1080 program
NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting ground baiting programs in;
Wyrrabalong National Park, Tuggerah Nature Reserve and Tuggerah State Conservation Area
6 November 2022 to 22 November 2022.
The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of foxes.
The program is designed to minimise predator impacts on wildlife, especially threatened species.
Signs will be placed at the entry to the baiting location. Domestic pets are not permitted in NSW National Parks managed lands.
Pets and working dogs may be affected (1080 is lethal to cats and dogs). Pets and working dogs must be restrained
or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location. In the event of accidental poisoning seek immediate veterinary assistance.
