In Australia, baiting with 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) is widely used to reduce predation of native wildlife by the red fox. However, such control programs may place some native carnivores at risk, particularly the spotted-tailed quoll in eastern Australia. We measured the mortality in a total of 57 quolls fitted with mortality radio-transmitters d...
Managing the Impacts of Dingoes and Other Wild Dogs is the first book to provide a comprehensive review of the history and biology of wild dogs in Australia, the damage they cause, and community attitudes to their management. Australia's wild dogs include dingoes, introduced around 4000 years ago, feral domestic dogs and hybrids between the two. Th...

... The monitoring of everything relating to the program is important for evaluation of adaptive management programs and budget allocation (step 5 Fig. 6.1;Braysher 1993;Fleming et al. 2006). Simple account keeping of costs associated with control programs is the first step (Fleming and Harden 2003). Although sometimes available for government agency control programs (e.g. ...
... The dingo (Canis dingo [33,34] or Canis familiaris [35,36]-its taxonomy is disputed [37][38][39]), Australia's largest terrestrial carnivore, is one species warranting further investigation into its ecological role. Dingoes have long been controlled due to conflicts with livestock producers [40,41] and are known to prey upon a range of threatened species [42][43][44][45][46][47]. In some cases, they have also compromised conservation efforts [10,48]. ...
... The southern subspecies of the spotted-tailed quoll Dasyurus maculatus maculatus occurs across a range of habitats including rainforest, wet and dry sclerophyll forest (e.g. with Eucalyptus andrewsii, E. saligna, E. tereticornis and Corymbia intermedia), woodland, coastal heathland and riparian forest (Watt 1993;Edgar & Belcher 1995; (Woinarski et al. 2014), competition and predation from feral predators (Edgar & Belcher 1995), poisoning by cane toads (Covacevich & Archer 1975), loss of den sites due to fire (Borsboom 1996), poisoning associated with control of feral predators (Körtner et al. 2003;Claridge & Mills 2007), weed invasion, road mortality and climate change (Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning 2016). ...
