Our Great Sandy Marine Park is THE ONLY Marine Park that allows commercial netting in what “should be” TRUE YELLOW CONSERVATION ZONE AREAS - AND ALSO HOLDS QUEENSLAND'S LARGEST URBAN DUGONG POPULATION ! Ask your local member and candidates will they STOP damaging commercial netting in the Great Sandy Marine Park under the current full term - 10 year review if elected ! NOTE - A total of five net entanglements (including two released alive) were recorded in StrandNet from 2013-2014, compared to eight in 2012, three in 2011 and eight in 2010. An additional five dugongs (three in 2013 and two in 2015) had indications of human interference (linear cuts and/or anchored carcass) but it was uncertain how they died. THATS IS 16 Dugong deaths attributed to commercial net entanglement between 2011 & 2015 + another 5 indicating similar interference !
