When animals become a nuisance or potential hazard, it's good to remember that they are only following their instincts and taking advantage of the opportunities available to them.
As with most issues, careful consideration can avoid or solve them with minimal inconvenience, and cost.
All fauna native to Australia, including fauna that naturally migrates to Australia, are afforded protection under both State and Commonwealth legislation. It is an offence to intentionally or recklessly kill, injure, trade, keep or move them unless authorised by a permit.
