Pest Animal Control Program Scheduled in Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park and Black Range State Park (Burrunj)

Throughout June, a ground shooting program (involving firearms) will occur throughout Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park and Black Range State Park (Burrunj) located west of the Henty Highway near Cherrypool.
 
  • Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park: Every week of June
  • Black Range State Park (Burrunj): 22nd June and 25 June
 
The program will be delivered at night between 6pm to 5am, in remote areas away from busy visitor sites, and will be carried out by professionals under strict conditions to ensure practices are safe, effective, and humane.
 
There will be no visitor site closures as part of this operation. Areas will be thoroughly assessed and swept prior, but there may be signage in place to notify visitors of the operation occurring in the surrounding area. 
 
Target species include deer and goats which cause serious damage to native plants, animals, and habitat by trampling and destroying plants, increasing grazing pressure, ring-barking young trees, fouling waterholes, causing soil erosion, and spreading weeds. Introduced predators (foxes and cats) prey on small mammals and reptiles and impact the ability of these species to recover from bushfire events.
