Many thanks to Malcolm Brown for alerting us to the 30/11 deadline for
submissions to Parks Victoria's dog-walking in the Mornington Peninsula
National Park review. Parks Vic's own website has a comprehensive outline of
reasons for the review (the discussion paper), and outlines the four options
being considered. It also provides an online form for submissions, particularly
handy if you haven't time to write a comprehensive paper.

To read an excellent submission, Birdlife Australia has put its contribution
online:

Hooded Plovers number only around 60 on the Mornington Peninsula and their fate
hangs on the result of this review. In a broader sense, the conservation values
of national parks everywhere may be either eroded or confirmed. Please write
SOMETHING.
