And so it is in all states.  However, refer to the earlier posting from Laurie, there are circumstances where the collection of dead specimens for the specific purpose of lodging them with a museum is permissible.  Queensland is, however, a little quirky when it comes to laws relating to wildlife (dead or otherwise).
