There must be thousands of shooters out there willing to make a dent in the ferals in Australia, it seems property owners and governments are less than keen to let responsible shooters have access to where the majority of them are. Government programs appear to be spectacularly unsuccessful if the numbers of deer and pigs are anything to go by.
You got it in one... the psuedo departments and beurocrats (most of them) have no interest in allowing rec hunters to shoot camels.... even if they pay PAY for it. The need that multi M$ funding to keep it going around.
I have just about given up on the Central Desert people - have spent the last 2 years trying to get something happening with the camels.... and they just dont want to have a part of rec hunters. The would rather blow money on stupid projects and helicopter time - than take my money...
Dunno mate,
Depends who you talk to in NPY Council (and how you put the proposal)
Maybe it takes time to build lasting relationships rather than "blow in, blow out" (incl bureaucrats and missionaries for the past WTF decades) that many communities are accustomed to. My ha'penny's worth.
