You know what happens when someone kicks up a stink in regards to poison.
Boaraxa there is just so much bad going on behind the scenes in regards to poison,they do their best ti keep it quiet.
They do not care,,end of story.

I would think it should be a huge concern to the likes of MPI , 3k from the drop zone , imagine brodifacoum showing up in export meat

It should be a huge concern to all in Government not just MPI..
Like I said things are kept quiet.

I’ve been down this road before, fed farmers are involved. something along the lines of they want what’s best for the farmer and stuff everyone else I.e game meat.
What gets me is, I can’t sell a deer for 3 years from within 2k of broady. In case a pellet fell out of bait station but, a farmer can sell all the stock in the same paddock as the bait station with no issues.... go figure

We made enquiries as to whether meat processors regularly tested for poison contamination. A. No ; unless specifically warned of likelyhood of stock being contaminated. = sfa testing.

On the feral stuff they test regularly, can’t comment on the farm stuff tho

I was referring to farm stock.

I have a coupla mates that shoot feral stuff both for human consumption and for pet food.
Plenty of paper work etc along with where such animals were collected,how far from any poisoned area etc,etc.
Yes they have to comply..quite strict. Rules for some but others are excluded,go figure

[QUOTE=Boaraxa;1017658]Where did you get that info
I’m a supplier of both pet food and human consumption meat, have been for a number of years

Look on the bright side. The D'Urville isn't being poisoned and there's still plenty of deer there

Utter bastards!

Just a heads up for you fellas

This has been done

There were heaps of 1/2 desolved green pellets on the ground in the clearings at the Sabine river mouth on Sat 26th sept

Also seen a couple of dead deer, 1 in the river and 1 getting pecked at by 4 weka.

Should have taken sum photos but was feeling too sad
