SUMMARY:Feral Animal Forum
DESCRIPTION:We would like to invite you to attend our “Feral Animal Forum” to be held on Tuesday the 31st of March\, at Chittering Landcare Centre\, 175 Old Gingin Rd\, Muchea. \nThe Chittering Landcare Centre is holding a second feral animal forum to raise the profile of the impact of feral animals on agriculture and the natural environment. We aim to discuss the BAM Act\, its continued implementation\, the Invasive Species Council and activities by the Biosecurity Council\, practical methods of feral animal control\, research into new methods of control and listen to community feedback. \nTo achieve this we will have researchers\, DAFWA members\, regional officers and community members as speakers. We will be inviting other agency officers to attend. We encourage vigorous debate on issues and welcome new ideas on how to resolve feral animal issues. \nWe will be encouraging local parliamentary members to attend to listen to the impact of these animals on our community. We appreciate your involvement in this forum. Raising the profile of invasive species is an important issue when there are so many competing challenges which require funding. \nDraft Program:3.00               ARRIVAL.
