    The poaching in gisborne is uncontrollable at the moment. I would hate to think how bad it will get when they 1080 those couple off areas. Its a big area and will take a lot off food off people's tables

    Exactly. The resulting tax take from the supermarkets and butchers sales will add nicely to the government coffers and from there into the coffers of the world banking cartels. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

    A core problem in all this is that game animals (in a hunters view) are not legislated for in NZ as public assets to be managed as such on public lands. If they were recognised in legislation as public assets and thus entitled to proper game management regimes, the whole poison scenario would virtually disappear and be replaced by targeted trapping or other means of stoat, cat, possum and rat management.
    They way the government has for over fifty years prevented such recognition of our introduced game animals has brought the deliberately created smoke screens of rats, possums and bovine Tb as justification for mass non target specific broadcast poisoning instead of targeted spp specific management. Public have been deliberately misled as to the available methodologies and alternatives in order to be blinded to the actual agenda. This surely must be becoming obvious to hunters by now. The twig and tweeters must be laffing their heads off to have pulled the wool successfully for so long. Hunter apathy has allowed this, while standing by and watching the anti poison activists who advocate trapping and game as assets and to protect clean waterways to become lambasted and labelled by govt and media as eco terrorists and cranks, ffs.

    This would be my question,...surely the dropping of 1080,proposed,actual etc is a public knowledge requirement and thereby has a place of advertisement for public input,action,and comment.I ve looked,cant find,but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist......there surly must be a link or website that deals with these proposals????? ,..... especially given the heightened hype,and controversy over the use of 1080

    Dont know the dates and that. Clyde Graf and Kathy White had a public meeting on at the Waiotahe hall in opotiki last sat I couldn't make it unfortunately but it sounds like a 1080 drop is going to happen at some point in the near future .

    Yeah mate ,I get that,...and good on them for hosting a public meeting,always a good thing around issues like this.......I’m still looking,but the Govt is responsible to make us all aware,without that information,...public meetings will always create more questions than answers,but that in itself,is always a good thing.....awareness makes us all better informed
