Thread: Time to re-introduce a paying for deer/goat tail scheme?

I think a small say $5 bounty on possum tails would be a good idea, as the guys doing fur/skins would most likely go from being barely profitable to making it a bit more financially viable hence being out there more catching more possums.
I don't think DOC alone would be able to implement this it would need to come from a variety of stakeholders ie AHB/DOC/OSPREY? I doubt it would work for deer or goats but for possums I think it would help, if for nothing else would keep people employed for longer and not necessarily relying on a benefit for example. In the current climate that cant be anything but beneficial?
