I've been pondering what to me is an obvious answer to a couple of problems for several months now and wonder if it has been discussed in the past...

Since the northern part of your wonderful country is (reportedly) more or less overrun with brumbies, buffalo, pigs, and I don't know what else, has any thought been given to introducing a predator that would help with the numbers, and within 15 or 20 years provide an incredible hunting opportunity, and not likely cause any great harm to existing hunting? Specifically, I am wondering if introduction of the Sumatran Tiger wouldn't be wonderful for both the tiger (near extinction due to poaching, etc etc) and eventually provide for some wonderful hunting in Oz? I've thought about it quite a bit, but being ignorant of your contry, don't know the problems it would cause. I don't think the tiger would be any problem with man-eating as I've not heard of this problem outside of the Bengals in the Sunderbans (India/Bangladesh). Anyway, thoughts??
