- W1528295928 abstract "This paper traces the post World War Il debate over kangaroo management, and how the various parties have managed the issue to arrive at the current levels of kangaroo harvest, with particular reference to NSW and die transition of policy from culling as an agricultural pest to a commercial harvest as the principal driver. Kangaroos have been variously represented in the debate as pests, a commercial resource, an Iconic Australian symbol, and endangered species. 1958, narrowly survived a pastoralists' vote to list them as noxious animals. If it had passed, and been agreed upon by State Cabinet, it would have made it compulsory for landowners to rid their land of these animals because they would then have been noxious species. Over 1964 and 1965, culled kangaroo populations crashed during drought It showed for kangaroo management to be effective the long-term the original tenet in the Fauna Protection Act 1948 of as pests had to be re-interpreted and, in Allen Strom's words: kangaroos needed to be managed on a sustained yield basis. Fifty years later the debate is better informed, with a sustainable population management approach, which Includes commercial harvesting. a statement on the subject 1983, Neil Shepherd provided the certainty as to what was underpinning the kangaroo management program at time:Commercial harvesting Is sanctioned by wildlife authorities to reduce the impact of on agriculture. Management for conservation is die primary objective and the harvest industry has no right to exist independent of the conservation program. He also concluded farming was not feasible, and pointed out they have never been intensively farmed. What was needed by the late 1980s was an effective advocate who could put the material together into a persuasive argument to move the public sentiment from pest management to sustained yield. If it had been attempted 10-20 years earlier, Shepherd observed, it would have been unsuccessful because the science to support the proposition, the research driven by Graeme Caughley from die mid 1970s to 1987, had not been undertaken. An advocate of a change in policy was Gordon Grigg. His proposal, first published in 1987, was to substitute kangaroo harvesting for farming on the rangelands as an answer to both widespread land degradation and sustainable kangaroo management Grigg later gave it the epigrammatic description of sheep replacement therapy.The modern debate now centres on matters of ethics and animal welfare on the one hand, and conservation management policies on the other.A report in 1998 into the Commercial Utilisation of Australia Native Wild life concluded that it is a legitimate activity of the Federal Government to support an export industry based on the commercial harvesting of kangaroos, which is being prejudiced overseas by public campaigns based on false information. Peter Singer, in 2005, took the view Those who see only as a resource, overlook the ethical aspects of how we are treating other sentient beings. In their 2006 review of the NSW Kangaroo Management Program, Olsen and Low concluded shooting remains the most economical, humane and cost-effective way to cull/harvest kangaroos; rainfall is the overriding driver of population density and die current harvest strategy (15-17%) appears to be achieving its current twin goals of sustainable use of natural resources and die maintenance of viable populations of the four harvested species. Thus the debate continues. However, this history of the debate on the commercial harvesting of has revealed it has been long running, filled with strong arguments and strong players, and science and policy have had a long struggle to assimilate the needs of the other.The 2007-2011 NSW kangaroo management plan is tided New South Wales Commercial Kangaroo Harvest Management Plan. This bold tide acknowledges the change in management oudook from damage mitigation to sustainable use. The historical record also demonstrates the current NSW management plan, which is underpinned by an objective to manage a sustainable kangaroo harvest is the outcome of a long and public debate." @default.
