Hello Jim,
Not just a propaganda battle, if you really want to spoil your day, simply
google NSW Game Council and look all through their website - it'll give you the
horrors! Even the Common Bronzewing will no longer be protected. And several
species of deer are to be protected to make sure these goons have something to
shoot at. You have got to be kidding.
The really scary bit is that the NSW Game Council is a Statutory Authority
supported by (probably funded by) the NSW Government.
If Barry O'Farrell wants to save more money, maybe he could take a look at the
Game Council. I wonder if it has suffered the same efficiency measures (being
very polite here) that have been applied to NSW National Parks and Wildlife
Service. I heard that what rangers are left are threatening to go on strike -
good luck, they'll need it.
I've always felt that our national parks in Australia would only be in danger
after we have absorbed another 100 million immigrants but it seems we are quite
capable of achieving that right now.
Happy New Year
Graeme
