People who allow their cats to roam should be fined, it very annoying when their cats comes into your yard when you are trying to attract birds into garden.
I saw a massive feral cat with her kittens crossing the road near Roma a few years back another time on a mates property, he set up a trap designed to catch them alive. Came back next morning and there was a mini tornado happening inside the cage a very angry and very large feral cat , they are not to be messed with they can be real nasty creatures.
Great work being done. Cat owners must be accountable for their pets, desexing & detaining on their own property, be it caged or leashed - no different to dog owners, bird keepers etc etc
it's law know in most states etc in Australia. Unfortunately ferals are everywhere and the reality is cats in general need to be fazed out of Australia as they cause to much damage and they kill natives that help with climate change. Yes our little natives here help protect this land from climate change.
@@olivegrove2615 We have the same problem here in New Zealand. They have decimated our endemic and native species. All the talk is about a predator free NZ by 2050. This means stoats, weasels, ferrets, possums and rats are to be removed. They have made a good start with many people now trapping at home, but you won't hear any talk of eliminating the biggest predator which is the cat. We have predator free islands all around NZ with knowledge that we have exported to other countries to achieve the same. Cats are the thorn in our rump!
Cat "pets" demolishing native wildlife in England too, but are covered by stupid law saying they are semi tame.. Yeah maby, but tell me and the millions of others that and see if we agree 🙄. If they roam out of its personal boundaries ie, owners garden they should then be classified as "feral". I have seen such a decrease in birds where i live in last 30 years, but cats are more numerous, small /young birds and animals don't stand much of a chance 😔.
Have you tried THERMAL scope and spotter? Very good as they don't know you are there. You can also pick up other animals,, giving you a good idea of animal density.
As an ex pro shooter in the Louth ,Tilpa area of wNSW & someone that shot every fox & cat that i saw . ,the amount of foxes & cats that appear when you are cleaning the roos is amazing.I always got foxes & cats ,which amounted to 3 or 4 of each a night.I think that a bounty should be put on both cats & foxes. ,
@ Kim brotherton Agree. That would wipe out those wildlife destroying city domestics as well. "I tought I taw a pooddy tat. I did, i did taw a pooddy tat ! BANG !!
@never stop fighting You are a snowflake and just plain ignorant of what is really going on outside your little world. You've got to be a vege. If there wasn't culling going on in the world you would starve.
yep they have a bounty on dingoes to protect the farmers interests . of course they should have it on foxes and cats infact if the dingo Australia's apex predator was not so badly hunted ,cats and foxes wouldn't be thriving as successfully as they are The dingo would play a remarkable part in bringing all our echo system back into balance and even help the farmers too
Spotlighting works very well for us, they enjoy hunting at night when its cooler. I've nailed many a cat and every one of them was fat, I feel for our fury natives 🥺
Post some video. Make it sound all official and scientific so UA-cam doesn't ban you. "Restoration of native Australian species through sad but necessary cat-culling" or some bullshit like that. I find it fascinating.
Traveling to my favorite fishing river in northwest always see feral cats, I went out purchased a.17 hmr rifle just to clean them out,now after 2 years I rarely see cat along river, good thing for birds.
Great to see working Springer's with tails. Traditionally, in the UK anyway, used be amputated in the belief that otherwise they would become injured in thick brush. Have you had any such problems?
docking is illegal in Australia. Which is honestly a shame when it comes to working dogs. Alot of working breeds that traditionally have docked tails have fragile tails. My own dog is a springer that had 'happy tail'. They wag their fragile tails against hard objects like trees, walls, furniture and the bones shatter. It rarely heals because you can't make a dog stop wagging it's tail long enough to heal. The tail ends up being removed anyway. But now I just get dirty looks from ignorant people who think I abused my dog by having his tail removed. It takes alot longer to heal when their adults and I wish I could have had it removed when he was a puppy so he didn't have to go through the weeks of pain he did as an adult.
You should tag, release and track the cats for a couple of weeks before returning to eliminate those same ones. Then take the tags back and repeat on new stock. You'll be able to build up some very good intel on cat movement patterns and also easily track night movements and activity.
Springer spaniel, my dad's got one, great digs. My mums family always had cocker spaniels. When I was in my teens we got a cocker, really lovely dogs, they get ear problems but what animals don't have some issue of a sort. Good viewing.
So, how successful is this program? I saw a lot of yack, yack, yack and not a single cat. And I have a feeling those dogs wearing muzzles would get shredded if they did corner a cat.
C. Daisy spend some time in outback Australia with your eyes open and your mouth shut and you'll see plenty. I used to shoot them and you see plenty at dusk or dawn
It's takes a ruthless brutal dog to take on a feral cat, and they still get torn up bad... the only safe way to take care of a feral cat problem is trap them and then let them suck on the end of a 22 cal rifle
I agree, a promotion vid justifying how the gov waste their taxes ! The dogs are good but the farmers should have them plus a 22mag & thermal energy scope for night
This is the most humane way to do it, instead of dropping 1080 poison that kills animals indiscriminately. p.s. Is the dog muzzles for snake bites, when the dog sticks his nose in a hole?
Pat O'Brien, I've seen other clips of feral cat hunters and their dogs have the muzzles on as well. I think your second guess is correct, as the hunters are meant to kill the feral cats who are killing and eating the native wild life. Would seem counter productive to have the dogs killing the native wildlife, by accident? Thanks.
Thank you! I had to subscribed to you hit bell too. Your dogs are Beautiful! I know Australia has a deadly animals. I was concerned about snakes. Especially you were working in this video. Do your dogs have a snakebite before? Especially Brown Snake!
I do a lot of 'spotlighting' here in Australia. We encounter more than 10 foxes for every single cat. As much as Cats are problem, Foxes are are just as destructive to wildlife.
Yeah foxes are normally night time hunters.. cats typically sleep at night... youll see more cats during the day then u will foxes.. go go get them when the chances of finding them are high..
On the ABC a few years ago they did a program about the aborigines eating cats . They didn't need a dog, they just chased them because cats have no stamina for running long distances and simply whacked them on the head and dinner was on the way... i would sooner eat a cat than a dog. Dogs eat their own shit if you let them .
As kids we found 2 kittens out in the out Back of north queensland. We took them home as pets. They lived a nice long life. 1 14 years and the other 18 years. They looked like normal but they were alot bigger than your usual house cats. The male cat was the same height as my staffy. Didn't weigh as much though. But he was huge and had big feet which looked a bit odd.
@@davidgoulding366 no the English replaced the Tazmainian tiger with the domestic cat. Just a perfect example of England destroying a country. One of many.
Trained to do this yet you have them wearing a guards . Why would u need a gps for a spaniel also. If you want a dog that will range and hunt you've got the wrong breed
@@sgtkrazykramer there's plenty of tracking breeds and plenty on wide ranging hunting breeds. In a dry dusty environment like that your not going to find much sent to start with so tracking any will be nearly impossible. Cats don't give of much sent to start with. You need a dog to find the cats not try n follow ground sent. You need a air senting breed that can range on and then use a gps to locate it . Speak the the pig guy's in Australia they know the score already
The guards are more than likely to stop the dogs picking up 1080 poison baits that cover Australia and only kill domestic dogs and other non target anmials because wild dogs and foxes rarely ever eat them
You want to be doing some night tracking with night vision equipment. Better than day work in the heat. And you cant spot these things 200~300 metres away ..... depending on how dense the bush is. And of course the dogs can be there when you finally close in on them ferals.
I'm no expert but this looks to a very expensive way to try to locate a cat or two. Those long haired spaniels must get very hot and they are not built to run fast either. I suspect that the method used here panders to the PC animal rights mob rather than being designed to actually catch and kill feral cats, it just doesn't look very realistic.
I understand that this is one method to locate some of the harder to find cats. In the name of species preservation, eliminating or lowering the feral cat population seems the only way to save species from extinction.
Anything that stops the extinction of animals in Australia. If killing off all the feral cats in Australia save more species from going extinct then so be it. cats and dingo's are expendable as hell.
@@mppp1877 Dingoes are not expendable, they have been the only terrestrial apex predator in Australia for a few thousands of years. The lack of enough dingoes is causing a lot of harm. Eradicating cats is impossible. They are all over the continent. It's only a waste of time and resources. You need a predator to keep it under control. You need a new balance.
Domestic cats kill between 1.4 and 3.7 billion birds and between 6.9 and 20.7 billion mammals (mostly mice, shrews, rabbits, squirrels, and voles) each year
@@dianaobrien2589 It's the irresponsible asshole cat owners who should be in jail. It's their fault if their stupid cat gets killed, anyway. I fully support cat hunters.
Love it, my mum always said her boy loved "pussy" he was a weimaraner, there's a lady in the USA that uses weimaraner's to find lost pet cats. I thought wow can we train weimaraner's to find feral's in Australia? Well obviously we can do this with the right trainers & dogs. Bravo. 👍
Any action that kills feral cats is a good action. Well done and keep up the good work. I agree cats should be desexed along with the owners that let them roam wild and end up feral. License cats and prosecute negligent owners, them we, me included would not have to hunt and shoot these pests. GG
years ago when spotlight shooting foxes on station country in western australia used to come across lots of feral cats they were easy to shoot they would bolt up the nearest tree, they were a lot harder to skin than foxes
Funny that feral cats are such a problem as if nothing predates them except these folks. Aside from the lack of a spay and neuter program, the so called "feral" cats that are shown in other videos sure look healthy; no tick and other parasite infestations, good coats, no malnutrition, and no missing body parts. One could wonder about the reaction, or lack thereof, of feral dogs that have inbred the native dingo populations to extinction, or the cane toads that poisoned nearly everything, or the rabbit population that required a continent wide fence.
Risk would out weigh the reward... Basically everything wants to kill you there... Plus when u can tree them it's much funner then picking them off at a distance...
Cats mark their territory with scent from glans. You obviously don’t own cats indoors otherwise you would know you have to spay neuter them to prevent them from marking.
Sounds good in theory but cats can sleep in different places in daytime,You will never get rid of cats ,if you think you can you are mistaken. As an ex professional kangaroo shooter and Fox trapper, I've got quite a few cats in my day,we use to get paid $10 a pelt for tabby's and reds,Good luck and what a big name for a simple job >👍
Should be using hounds, not bird dogs. Take off the muzzles, and let them tree the cats. Both men should be carrying shotguns, and then the cats can be eliminated.
Gary, your actually right. Even smaller hounds like beagles would be a better choice than spaniels. You can also "break" dogs so they don't hunt anything else, so no need for muzzles. Run the hounds at night when the cats are more active and you can do away with more cats. You don't have to be from Australia to know this, houndsmanship is universal.
P.S. You blokes need to get rid of those wire muzzles before the dogs get hurt, not sure why you think that they need them, but if they really have to wear muzzles, then get them made out of leather or something that is softer and yields.
People who allow their cats to roam should be fined, it very annoying when their cats comes into your yard when you are trying to attract birds into garden.

Do you worry about the dogs getting snake bit?
Cats have to drink like everything else. They have to come in for water. Thats where you have a hide. Night vision.
I have seen a dog chased suburban cat leap fourteen feet up onto a roof in one leap.
Mate one of the reasons they have hit arid zone wildlife so hard is that they actually don't need to drink.
Why muzzle the dogs?
Gotta go at night with a night vision scope. Bait them like hogs.
Risk would out weigh the reward... Basically everything wants to kill you there... Plus when u can tree them it's much funner then picking them off at a distance...
I like cats......just can't eat a whole one myself
Seems typical of government devised systems. ..... All talk and no visible result . Not one cat seen on the whole video
Cats mark their territory with scent from glans. You obviously don’t own cats indoors otherwise you would know you have to spay neuter them to prevent them from marking.
i spent 6 minutes on video , then checking comments if this 2 guys wasted my time and it was!
What is a bilby?
A marsupial animal.
SO no cat then...
Sounds good in theory but cats can sleep in different places in daytime,You will never get rid of cats ,if you think you can you are mistaken. As an ex professional kangaroo shooter and Fox trapper, I've got quite a few cats in my day,we use to get paid $10 a pelt for tabby's and reds,Good luck and what a big name for a simple job >👍
funny the vids about over population of cats but you can't find a single one.
I have a couple of Australian Cattle dogs you can use,,and you WON'T need those Shotguns either.. THEY take care of that problem FOR YOU
Brutal though, they snap the neck and rip the prey apart. Plus, the feral cats can injure them and spread diseases.
No footage of you blowing these things away? Too bad.
I’m almost to the end of your video and I don’t see a cat getting blasted yet !!
DON'T ADD MUSIC OVER SPEECH
What is the name of the hat the one man is wearing?
Ronald.
Domestic dogs are becoming a problem also. They are the third leading cause of water pollution. We can't talk about that tho.
no traps, no poison, and muzzled dogs?
Where is the cat?
Why the muzzle on the dogs?
Thank you David! I never thought of that!
Should be using hounds, not bird dogs. Take off the muzzles, and let them tree the cats. Both men should be carrying shotguns, and then the cats can be eliminated.
Gary Page you use a shotgun I use a bow
The Force is tha best
so true
Gary, your actually right. Even smaller hounds like beagles would be a better choice than spaniels. You can also "break" dogs so they don't hunt anything else, so no need for muzzles. Run the hounds at night when the cats are more active and you can do away with more cats. You don't have to be from Australia to know this, houndsmanship is universal.
P.S. You blokes need to get rid of those wire muzzles before the dogs get hurt, not sure why you think that they need them, but if they really have to wear muzzles, then get them made out of leather or something that is softer and yields.
Good initiative! Would Welcome a Bounty Australia Wide to help out in the process!
The neighbors' cat is fun to 'un-tree.!
