Feral animal and weed management strategies

National Parks and Wildlife Service takes a strategic, risk-based approach to invasive species management.

 

National Parks and Wildlife Service delivers a large and comprehensive set of invasive species management programs. We aim to minimise the harm that feral animals and weeds cause to biodiversity, heritage and the community.

National Parks and Wildlife Service feral animal and weed management strategies set out our approach to the management of invasive species and our vision for outcome-based planning, delivery and reporting. 

The strategies include prioritisation frameworks that deliver feral animal and weed control plans. The control plans guide annual operational delivery planning, ensuring the allocation of resources is focused on contemporary conservation and biosecurity priorities. The control plans are reviewed annually or earlier as required. 

Previous regional pest management strategies

The regional pest management strategies are being replaced by feral animal and weed control plans that operate under the framework established by the National Parks and Wildlife Service feral animal and weed management strategies.
