  • Controlling Deer in Victoria
    Controlling deer in Victoria AN OPEN LETTER TO The Hon. The Hon. The Hon. Jaclyn Symes Lily D’Ambrosio Lisa Neville Minister for Minister for Energy, Minister for Water Regional Development, Environment and Minister for Police and Agriculture and Resources Climate Change Emergency Services Level 36, 121 Exhibition St, Level 16, 8 Nicholson St, Level 17, 8 Nicholson St, Melbourne VIC 3000 East Melbourne VIC 3002 East Melbourne VIC 3002 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] 2 May 2019 Dear Ministers Symes, D’Ambrosio and Neville, We are writing to you in your roles as key natural resource Ministers in the Victorian Government. We are concerned that Victoria’s Draft Deer Management Strategy (2018) fell far short of addressing the considerable problems feral deer bring to peri-urban and regional communities, and to wetlands, catchments and the natural environment. We offer here some recommendations for the final strategy; it is a critical opportunity to control deer populations and to reverse the increasing impacts they are having. We agree with the rough estimate for the state’s deer population, as documented in the draft strategy, at ‘between several hundred thousand up to one million or more’. The population is growing rapidly at an exponential rate1, and far exceeds the capacity for control by recreational hunters. Research into the native habitats of the four main species of deer in Victoria indicates that they can continue to extend their range, potentially occupying almost every habitat in the nation2. Victoria’s biodiversity is at risk.
