In its report, the committee makes a number of recommendations as to ways of improving pest animal management. These include increased state and territory government expenditure directed at on-ground control and eradication, and better management of pest animal problems on government land. The committee has also recommended that people be able to harvest pest animals as a resource, where there is the potential to do so as part of an overall strategy for controlling pest populations.
