G'day Dave,

I think you need to put all this into perspective, is a one off hit like
this worse than doing nothing? Let's revisit this in ten years time or
earlier and see what the improved situation is going to look like without
the ferals eating and digging the place into oblivion.
Since when has Eric Abetz ever been a voice worth listening to on the
conservation front.

Cheers Jeff.

Indeed - you can't expect 100% accuracy from a newspaper! But it is
disturbing that something that was supposed to be protecting the birds seems
to have the opposite effect - especially as the total kill seems likely to
be somewhat higher.
