Hey mate, Fair Call, I respect your opinion, I'm sure you are aware of the saying that goes with it??
The story goes that a mate and myself had just finished gutting a Fallow deer (mates first/skun for a rug + meat used) so it was well into the night when we left the hunting ground to travel around 6k back to camp via vehicle, I mentioned that being dark we may see a deer cross the track infront of us, right on Cue a set of eyes were seen coming from the low side to the track , I yelled DEER... but then we both yelled DOG! I instinctively put the Right foot to the Floor (as you might shoulder a rifle ) perhaps, as I closed the 40-50 m gap on the animal it turned an began running up the track.... I'm doin around 60km/h now an gaining pace, theres a bend in the road an a real good Drain on my Left, the dog edges toward the drain as I'm right up hes ASS and within seconds a bump is felt and that little bastard lay motionless on the Track as I came to a halt and turned around!!
I'm not sorry you are offended, that is your business , I was talk of the town for a few weeks - the kid who runs em down
I earnt $120 for that brief moment of adrenaline rushing Rally car action!
I missed hes brother a few weeks later on the Same property we shot the Fallow deer, a similar Grey striped colouring!
500,000 Kangaroos are hit on Roads each week,.... they are Native, Marsupial Iconic Animals.... no one turns around for them, checks if they are dead but instead Curses out loud and reaches for the Cheque book....
thank god the dogs arnt that solid and slip under the bull bar nice and easily.
Warm barrels and happy hunting, however you go about it aslong as you are within your local rules and laws, power to you.
Cheers!

It's not about sport, it's about extermination by any & all means legally possible.

I'm with you 110%. Some people are just completely morally corrupt. Makes me sick aswell. Perhaps they grew up without good parental guidance however. The only new laws needed in this country are for hunting. Hunting for sport not for sustenance should be completely illegal and well known morally.
This is coming from an avid hunter and fishing supporter. Aswell supporter of gun laws better than the USA.

Awwww crap, this thread is heading for the sh!tter.
Morally corrupt? Are you kidding me? Do you consider the morality of setting a mouse trap? Like Jay and others have said, removing pests, whether they are a mouse or a feral dog, is sometimes a necessary thing to do! Just because someone’s morals do not line up exactly with yours doesn’t automatically make them corrupt. As an avid hunter, I would expect you might know this already...

W/L truth be known I do the same as you for those vermin.
Be it a Crow or a Coyote or Raccoon crossing the roads in front of me.
I put the pedal to the metal and if they get away they learned a valuable lesson.
You have a solid business plan and good for you on sticking to it.

Great response WhelanLad! I respect everyones opinion as well. What I find curious is that some feel the need to comment negatively (open forum or not) knowing full well the response they are going to get. I agree everyone has an opinion but not everybody needs to hear it. This is a hunting forum. If we are hunting within the laws of the land we live in then keep your negative opinions to yourself. Your not going to change opinions.
Good on yer "Lad!
Were I running around that country, I strongly suspect I'd be keeping an eye peeled in the ditches for other victims of the vehicles in the darkness. Those 'empties' are worth money!
Doesn't matter what you do these days, someone with no stake in he end results will get all butthurt over that you don't feel the same way they do. For some reason, they keep looping back to need. As in, "Nobody needs...blah, blah, blah. When in this case especially, someone in the Government determined that there was a need to knock back the population by whatever means possible, and they were willing to pay cash money to motivate folks to do so.
Carry on the good work!
And use that coin to buy a better bumper, eh!
I will happily beat down a coyote by whatever means I can that is legal, but most of the areas I lived in with foxes, we pretty much left them alone. They are not an introduced predator here though.

Too many replies to Quote, However You guys will know who you are, its a bit chalk and cheese in here at the moment
Thanking to all who understand and also maybe broadening some other guys views or realitys on what goes on around the world.
Australia, Unlike Canada Doesn't have "predators" like Bears, Wolves, wolverines and Coyotes, Cougars or Pumas or Big Cats, A lot of our Natives are smaller than a Grid iron Ball / Football, small cute fluffie, feathered, scaley natives and Our BIGGEST predator is IMO the Feral House Cat, Followed very closely buy the FOX but when we get further out of the Bush and into the Farmlands, our biggest predator for our livelihood is the Wild Dog, these dogs will take down what foxes cant/wont unless oppertunistic, we are talking Wallaby, Kangaroo, Lamb , Calf , fowl/pony , cattle dogs
So the Government use 1080 and set traps along tracks within the 3km off the Farm fences as this is where majority of the dogs roam around, The Alpine dingo belongs in the bush much like Your Wolves, however if the Wolf comes to town.... he get hung in town..
same story here.
Australians are slowly realising how Dangerous the Feral House cat is, goin too try an make everyone Desex their cats.. long term project.. We are hoping for a $10 bounty aswell....
I keep pushing or mentioning it any chance I can !
I got to go warm up my Pursuit special to head off to work! however hopefully we can all relax a bit and take in what it is, cos at the end of the day it is what it is.
cheers
