@Litoriaraniform @UniNewEngland Thanks for the heads-up. A question posed early in this article is somewhat naive. Dingoes are BOTH an important native species and an agricultural pest. The important question is how will we choose to manage #dingoes given they have multiple values?

It can be tempting to vent frustrations with Animal Ethics Committees but we deal with two great ones. I especially appreciate the opportunity to meet and discuss projects / applications, to understand how we can communicate better, incl. other evidence that might be useful.

10% of NSW is National Park. The ‘Dep Sec’ should establish a culture of effective land management for conservation and resource it. This requires science-based, empathetic and collaborative action across tenures. Agree? Pls apply now! @nswdcceew

Australians have, so far, failed to make politicians protect our environment. #auspol ‘an area larger than Tasmania has been destroyed this century.’

@ozpete011 Pete. K’Gari has been a place name for the Butchulla people long before you or I were bred and born.

@stationmum101 I agree. Colleagues in National Parks want to do more. Most know that active management, including monitoring, is vital.

@LoneRangifer I hope the ‘General Biodiversity Duty’ is given FAR more consideration, resourcing and ‘weight’ than similar ‘general’ duties elsewhere.
