Distribution maps for vertebrate pests
The NSW Department of Primary Industries periodically collects and collates data and best-available information on the distribution and relative abundance of pest animals throughout NSW.
Surveys are conducted through consultation with land management organisations, including the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service and Local Land Services.
The maps below provide a representation of the distribution and relative abundance of many established pest species throughout NSW, at points in time between 2009 and 2023.
Some of these maps may not be accessible.
