The proposed renewal of poison 1080 to be dropped by helicopter into an enlarged area of Victoria, will be a massive intrusion of toxic poisons into regional Victoria, and there is no  doubt thousands of protected dingoes and native wildlife will die a horrible death.

Dingoes are protected under the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act, and Spot tailed Quoll shall be affected directly and indirectly.

There has been a great deal of misrepresentation about poison 1080. Compound 1080 used in poison baits is NOT produced from a plant,  nor do Native wildlife have a natural resistance to it. Our earlier update set out the Truth about 1080 and where it comes from, it is a synthetic white powder imported from a number of countries that make it, including China, New Zealand and America. Compound 1080 is not made from a plant.
