"They" can get away with using all sorts of inhumane methods......sticky traps for rats mice is but one. Illegal for us tho

Could we work with, and support the Graf boys who have already walked a fair way down this path ????

Perhaps they would like to contribute to this thread?

To hear that members have had media all willing to do a write up in a national paper is good but why do they want to pull the pin on such an article that needs to be bought to the attention of the non outdoors people. What a good way to keep a truly evil product in supply and use to line the pockets of the shareholders of the company that imports the stuff, that is to keep everyones mouths shut by disallowing knowledge of the true side effects this stuff causes to a dying animal, plus compensating land owners for loss of stock when 1080 has made it onto private land under the agreement of non disclosure of the incident ever happening. Keep pushing the media to get a story out there until you can successfully get an article published by a paper who is not scared to tell the truth.

Believe me '308' The information that started this thread has been doing a tap dance across the desks of every editor we think might publish the story for a few days now...You would think it was radioactive... they wont touch it.

Well done Chris,I saw the images on facebook.

They have put considerable effort into gathering evidence/footage and got a bit of air time but were immediately discredited and phoo hooed as hunters who want more game.
No doubt they probably have the most comprehensive video library of this atrocity but more air time in this country could just come across as "oh not these pricks whining again'

What we need is a creditable internationally reconised scientist/biologist to take this to the media globally. And no doubt the graf boys could help with this with their extensive footage and local politics knowledge.

On there blogsite they do parallel autopsy's on a shot deer and one killed by 1080...Now that is something to see.

We have some great International Scientists working on the 1080 problem now.

Thanks Scribe, I have met shorty and talked to them a few times now.

What you need is a new and enthusiastic reporter...

You are right there 'spanners' we never stop hoping that one day the story written by the enthusiastic young reporter makes it across the Editors Desk. Thats why we still do story's.... to be honest there is no lack of interest in the subject from new enthusiastic reporters.

I read the one involving the maggot who shalt not be named, The rest will have to wait. Its not new to me and im not the one who needs convincing.
We just need to work out how to open everyone else's eyes with out being shut down before we get the chance.

Good on ya mate! Hope you win and keep just enough back for a good bottle of single malt as well.

However I think the only way we will bring any real change is to get the international media involved,as much as I hate to say it.
That would bring some real pressure to bear on our government (whoever that may be) to stop using this weapon of mass destruction and cruelty. If it got hyped up enough it would really hurt our tourism(unfortunately) reputation and revenue. And that they will have to listen to. They wont listen to their people.

That idea coupled with the idea that Chris had to put on facebook are worth pursuing.
