The enhanced 1080 as he called it was used for pigs and deer where they wanted to reduce numbers more than just dropping standard 1080.
That's what he said anyway and from what ive seen in the bush, esp with pigs its clear it knocking them overall far better than 10 years ago so they certainly target deer and pigs, have no doubt

Yeah I know they have but they generally don't admit they are doing it to the hunting faternity

They better start clearing out the cows, pigs chickens and any other so called non native species. Then replant all the swamp land, plant the trees that were felled for timber at the tun of the centry, the list would be extensive. Some one has to be making a lot of money from 1080 drops as we know its banned in many other countries and they arnt even classed a s clean and green like NZ

So woody, is there any report of TB close to that park they are going to 1080?
