Download Dama wallaby palatability and efficacy pen trials using deer repellent

It is becoming increasing difficult to achieve a social licence to undertake wallaby control in areas favourable for deer hunting. The use of deer repellents is likely to reduce non-target impacts by decreasing the number of deer consuming wallaby toxic bait. This aim of this research is to determine whether the inclusion of deer repellent in 1080 bait affects the palatability (and efficacy) of the baits against dama wallabies.
