Well I'll be submitting an objection later tonight. There's a couple of my regular forests included in that proposed exclusion zone. I'm going to be f*****g pissed if they change them to NP.
It'll shoot the fleas off a dog's back at five hundred yards, Tannen, and it's pointed straight at your head!

Bump.
I do hope that members here take just 15 minutes to send an email. The closing of the forests being investigated, Wombat, Mt Cole and the Pyrenees are areas that new hunters can cut their teeth on and close to Melbourne. In particular it will effect any hunter living on the western side of Melbourne. It would be a huge loss to anyone that does not have access to farms.

Submission done - hoping it doesn't get canned - as OldBloke says - it would be a huge loss.

Don't put your hopes on anything reasonable coming from VEAC. This is a green group that has been pushing for the Wombat to reclassified for over a decades It's a stacked organisation.

These "Greens" always make me laugh. Should change their name to "poison". There actions promote foxes, cats, dogs etc. Resulting in fewer natives.

Put in my submission the moment I read this.
Wombat was the first place I ever hunted and still go regularly.

s**t like this has been coming for a while.

They can't ban the guns so achieve the same result by removing all the hunting locations.

Obviously transparent intentions.
