Many animals have adapted easily to this region. Some of the pest animals identified by NQ Dry Tropics are significant because they are threats to agriculture. According to local governments in our region rabbits, wild dogs and feral pigs are most concerning. Foxes, feral cats and locusts follow closely behind.
NQ Dry Tropics helps to coordinate the management of weeds. We have a plan (the Pest Management Strategy) that identifies target weeds in order of priority. It also outlines who is responsible for managing them.
