Queensland alone recently estimated that wild dogs cost that state’s economy $33M annually. Effective local management tools for foxes and wild dogs are therefore essential for land managers to [...]

Potential of delta-decanolactone and (Z)-7-dodecen-1-yl acetate to attract feral goats (Capra hircus)
A lure is needed for cost-effective control of feral goat populations dispersed in forests. We evaluated the odour delta-decanolactone and the pheromone (Z)-7-dodecen-1-yl acetate in a series of trials using penned Angora goats on two New Zealand farms. Filter paper discs at each of two feeders stocked with lucerne chaff dispensed 2 mL of odour [...]

Field Evaluation of Olfactory Lures for Feral Cats (Felis catus L.) in Central Australia

Ten food-based lures, one plant extract and two scent-based lures (anal-gland preparations from male and female cats) were evaluated on the basis of visitation rates and elicited behavioural responses. A visual lure composed [...]
