The Barcoo Shire Coordinated Wild Dog Baiting Program is being undertaken from 30 October – 3 November 2023 on properties within the Barcoo Shire. Council will be aerial baiting as well as some ground baiting during this time.
- Visitors and local community members are to be vigilant with their pets during baiting periods and take caution whilst travelling around the shire.
- 1080 baits can remain active for long periods on properties adjacent to main roads and other road networks within the Shire boundary.
- Be aware of the possibility that these baits can be transferred by wildlife from baited areas to non-baited areas such as our town commons, reserves, and road related areas.
- Please ensure you do not take your pets onto private property without first contacting the owner/manager.
