How to use the website
Information you can enter
Sightings or evidence
Such as observations of feral goats, footprints, scats or camera photos. The more information you record, the more informative the feral goat map will become over time. Trends in movement will start to emerge, which can be used to decide where control should be undertaken.
Damage
Such as damage to fencing, native vegetation and crops, etc. Recording the damage that feral goats cause is important for deciding when and where feral goat control should be undertaken. It can also be used to help you access resources and support.
Control activities
Such as trapping and ground shooting, etc. Recording control activities can help you to (1) create a map of where you are focusing your efforts and keep a record of where you have used a technique, (2) evaluate whether changes are needed, and (3) help you work with your neighbours to synchronise control to get the best outcomes.
All information regarding control is managed privately.
