methinks tim allens predictions/nightmare of councils/govt appointed supposedly local organisations running pest control is coming to pass.
its brilliant really all ratepayers will pay for a localised problem created basicly by the people taking thier moneywho.l pass some on to ecan. farmers wont have to pay pest board fees for geese or wallabies to solve thier problems cos everyone will pay its via rates cos its ecan..
the last thing we need is them solidafying the status of the canada goose as a pest or pissin about with wallabies.
what does ecan need to add more pests for when they cant keep up with what theyve got.??stick to getting river and lake polluters to court in a more timely fashion especialy on thier 2nd or third offence.or maybe improving our water ways health. .
the council created the areas conducive to the birds moving in?? and they obviously had no plan as usual to mitigate any problems.
anymore than they do with swans feral geese or large numbers of ducks during the season??[ which with ducks mostly will solve itself after next weekend]
ecan these days is no more than an extension of the central government rubber stamping irrigation consents/schemes and taking years to prosecute polluters with the pretence of local interest to cover thier real productivity advancing agenda.
case in point the selwyn creek and lake ellesmere.
