This Request is for the delivery of aviation services associated with aerial control operations (shooting) for pest animals to the Department of Parks and Wildlife

Pest animals present a significant threat to biodiversity and landscape values and are a major impediment to vegetation recovery, particularly on the former pastoral leasehold land purchased for conservation through programs such as the Gascoyne Murchison Strategy. Aerial shooting is recognised as a legitimate and appropriate means of reducing the threat of pest animals to biodiversity and agricultural/pastoral values and is employed by land management organisations across Australia.
