This strategy identifies;

  • animal pests, weeds and diseases in North Coast Region
  • the values and species that they threaten
  • programs and priorities for pest management.

The main objective is to minimise the impacts of pest species on reserves and neighbouring lands and to work with other agencies and landholders to achieve these aims. The document profiles pest species and lists preferred control methods and acknowledges the region continues to respond to new and emerging threats.

Pest management highlights for the region include the management of wild dogs, foxes, bitou bush, lantana and cane toads.
