In this climate with budget cuts, I don't think we need worry too much as it took a lot of time and work to get the funding to do the Sika in Russell. This funding was approved as it was an illegal release into any area without a resident population.

I have never seen as many deer as there are in the wild now post Covid and with a major reduction in WARO, the numbers are climbing and I don't think removal is a treat, effective control without some form of intervention is, however.
While I was away during the roar 5 different blocks in the areas I hunt had culled to waste, they had not done this before Covid. One station alone culled over 400 animals.
