Who controls Australia's pest animals when the people doing the work lose confidence?

Who controls Australia's pest animals when the people doing the work lose confidence? One of the lesser-known consequences of the firearm reforms introduced by Chris Minns and Anthony Albanese is the uncertainty they have created for many everyday hunters who play an important role in pest animal management across regional Australia. It requires significant investment in training, equipment, travel, and time. More importantly, it contributes to controlling feral animal populations that threaten farms, native wildlife, and the environment. But when regulations change rapidly and uncertainty grows, many are left asking: Can they continue to invest in the equipment and licences they need to do the job?
