n this video we spend a day hunting deer up in Queensland, Australia. It was a great day on the hill and I hope the video tells the story.

In Queensland, wild dogs create a number of economic, environmental and social problems - particularly for agricultural businesses. An Invasive Animals Cooperative Research Centre 2009 report estimates wild dogs cost Australia at least $48.5 million per year in livestock losses, disease spread and control. The wild dog is a restricted invasive animal under the Biosecurity Act 2014, which means all landholders have a responsibility to minimise the risks associated with invasive animals under their control. Wild dogs cannot be moved, kept (if a dingo), fed, given away, sold or released into the environment without a permit. Effective wild dog control requires a cooperative 'nil tenure' approach. This involves landholders, local government officers and other stakeholders working together to apply a range of control methods at a 'landscape' (rather than an individual property) level. Control methods include baiting, trapping, shooting, fencing, and the use of livestock guardian animals. Wild dog legislation The wild dog is a restricted invasive animal under the Biosecurity Act 2014. The dingo is defined as both 'wildlife' and 'native wildlife' under the Nature Conservation Act 1992. This means: • Under the Biosecurity Act 2014, landholders have a legal responsibility to control wild dogs (including dingoes) on their land. Wild dogs cannot be moved, kept, (if a dingo), fed, given away, sold, or released into the environment without a permit. • Under the Nature Conservation Act 1992, the dingo is protected within protected areas (e.g. national parks). Protected areas have their own management principles, which help to conserve their natural resources and natural condition; however, the Department of Environment and Science's good neighbour policy allows for the management of wild dogs in protected areas in certain circumstances. Local government area biosecurity plans Every local government in Queensland is required to develop a community biosecurity management plan for their area. This plan specifies the priority and actions for each stakeholder in the local area with regard to invasive plants and animals. Many plans have wild dogs as a high priority and require landholders to take reasonable steps to minimise the impacts of wild dogs. Landholders are encouraged to work with their neighbours in coordinated control programs.
