Bernard Fennessy Memorial Lecture & Centenary Chat. Dr Lyn Hinds - ‘Managing Vertebrate Pests – Who is Outsmarting Whom’

Management of overabundant vertebrates remains problematic, nationally and internationally. A range of lethal and non-lethal management techniques are available for different species, but are they effective? Do current management approaches effectively reduce the impacts of vertebrate pest populations in the landscape?
