> Latest news: A week of hunting Incidents

It is sad to report there have been a series of hunting related incidents this month.

NPA has put out a media release on some of these matters: http://nohunting.wildwalks.com/node/358

We have since received this news report from South Australia outlining why the volunteer program to cull goats has been put on hold. Watch the news item here: "Man shot in National Park" 
http://au.news.yahoo.com/nsw/latest/a/-/article/16961346/man-shot-explosives-found-at-national-park/

These incidents could be sent through to your local newspaper and local Member of Parliament for their information.
