Ban the use of 1080 poison in Australia.

The issue

1080 poison not only causes suffering in target animals, but it also effects native Australian wildlife. Those animals that do not die, can suffer reproductive problems. Scavenging birds feeding on dead poisoned animals suffer the same fate. 1080 poison has been banned in countries overseas, yet land holders, farmers & local councils are still using this poison in Australia.
