Adam ONeill Andy Meddick 12 April 2015 16


Background

When you enter the dark halls of lethal control we use for wildlife population and “‘pest control” 1080 poison is banned in most countries as an option -it is undeniably death by torture and it kills indiscriminately yet Australia still orders it in big time to use in our National parks, pastoral land & many large landholdings. We discuss the current state of 1080 usage in Australia with Andy Meddick from the Animal Justice Party & Adam O’Neill from the Dingo for Biodiversity Project will explain why 1080 baiting is a big player in the decimation of Koala populations in south east QLD. This dingo below in a stable pack structure can look after our ecology much better than we can and can do it for free…..why aren’t we letting them exist? **Photo courteousy of the Dingo for Biodiversity Project.

A weekly show hosted by Melbourne-based animal advocates, presenting local and international interviews, presentations, and music from this vibrant social justice movement. The show is broadcast on 3CR Community Radio 855AM
