Please stop the user of 1080 poisons being used

The issue

The attached video shows the effects of 1080 and how long it can take to kill. In the local area (Gosford is just one example), Kookaburras, Eagles, Ring tail possums, Brush tail possums, Wallabies and Goannas etc all eat the baits. It also washes into the creeks and ocean every time we have a decent rain. I'd be surprised if there are any eels left in the creeks.  1080 poison "is humane" Please stop the use of this aweful poison which is poisoning our streams.
