Nup not whingeing, just glad the country saving a bit of money. I have done enough pre poison and Post Poison monitoring for DOC to know they don't need much excuse to dump the shit.Quote:

DOC has just been given the green light to dump 1080 in the Hunua Ranges next year. This should be of concern to Aucklanders as that is where the water supply comes from.
Yep talk back radio today has been alive with the complaints of alarmed Aucklander's.Quote:

Lying Bastards.
Umm probably not DOC. Try ARC I'm pretty sureQuote:

Blame DOC anyway. They're bound to be getting a back hander for it, or at least getting invites to Nick Smiths epic fishing adventures.Quote:

Thought we would try the local doc block here this weekend. Waste of time that was when we got to this sign. Went for a walk anyway. Was interesting seeing absolutely nothing. Not even a rabbit. Shame. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...46858e60da.jpg

I sat behind her on a flight back to Auckland last Wednesday. If only I had known this I would have had a captive audience for an hour.Quote:

Whoa up. The sign is dated 26/6/14 and it was in bait stations.Quote:

Yeah that was just 1 sign. They also heli dropped the whole block too which we were told by the ski field owner. He said they dropped it on the snow so that it froze over the winter and would thaw in spring. We did find that bait station by that sign with a dead wallaby near it with a cage over it and a note saying it was for surveyingQuote:

I reckon the tide is turning too there has been more publicity about this shit in the last 3 months. And two drops have been called off and another stopped by the barge owner that didn't want to ferry it to where the op was. And the Jaffas water supply is getting a dose.Quote:

You would have to say that this is pretty incestuous.
