In NSW, pest animal control is the responsibility of landholders and land managers who occupy both private and public land. All occupiers of land are obliged under the Rural Lands Protection Act 1998 to continually suppress and destroy pest animals on their land. Animals that are currently declared pest species in NSW include wild dogs, rabbits and feral pigs.
This manual was written primarily for Rural Lands Protection Boards, the National Parks and Wildlife Service, and other government officers involved in the control of vertebrate pests in NSW. However, it is also essential reading for staff of other agencies involved in vertebrate pest control. It is intended to promote uniform standards of control, administration and safety throughout the state.
Control techniques and general summary of the biology and behaviour of the major vertebrate pests (rabbits, feral pigs, wild dogs, foxes, mice, feral goats, and deer) are supplied.
Contents in the Vertebrate Pest Control Manual include:
- Legislative & policy requirements for pest animal management

- Rabbit biology & control
- Feral pig biology & control
