In the early 1960's where I used to live, the property bounded a National Park.
At one time the rabbit numbers increased dramatically,,,,,, and the "Parks & Wildlife" gurus of the time decided to do a "
real good job"
and clean up the rabbit population in the park.
So they aerial baited the entire park with 1080 carrots.
Shortly thereafter, wherever you went in the park there was a stench of rotting carcasses.
The idiots had forgotten about the roos,, and virtually wiped them out.
Lesson learnt I guess, because after that they started using the disc/furrow method and trailing 1080 oats around the perimeter only.
Nothing was said or reported on the news about the stuff up,,,, and it was only people that lived there basically that knew about it.
I do not fear death itself... Only its inopportune timing!
I've come to realize that,,,,, the two most loving, loyal, and trustworthy females in my entire life were both canines.
