My subjective answer will obviously be 'yes, shoot it'; I won't
reiterate what I've already said in the recent Gang-gang Whimsy.
Richard, I'm happy to help, but am unsure what further info you need
beyond what was in that article. I think the Adelaide experience alone
is compelling, but the other situations cited also are pretty relevant
I'd have thought. However, it might be more useful to hear from others
- Honourable COG Committee? :-)
cheers
Ian

A couple of weeks ago a STD appeared
on my block and has stayed around the house ever since. It is solitary
and calls incessantly. In the back of my mind I
seem to remember reading that it is invasive (sorry if I’m using weed
language, but it’s weeds that I spend most of my time fighting). I note
that it is mentioned as a cause of concern in Gang-Gang, but I don’t
have the ‘pigeons’ volume of HANZAB, so I don’t understand in what way
it is invasive or undesirable.
Can someone please tell me why it is
such an undesirable species, and if I should grit my teeth and shoot
it, despite its beauty.
Thanks
