6 May 2025 | We are delighted to announce the launch of the Decision Guide for Stray and Feral Cat Management in Tasmania 2025.
Thanks to consultation with stakeholders, we have identified that a major barrier to effective cat management is the difficulty in knowing the best way to manage stray and feral cats on different land tenures across Lutruwita/Tasmania.
This guide is designed to help users navigate a series of questions and considerations, leading to tailored solutions for cat management.
The guide can be found in our Reading Room on our website or click here to download it.
Landcare Tasmania chief executive officer Peter Stronach says the guide is important for addressing the critical issue of invasive species management.
“We know the impacts of roaming stray and feral cats on wildlife, agricultural systems and human health through direct predation and disease are devastating.
“This new tool is one of the critical steps required in reducing these threats, and will help people make the right decisions in their local patch.”
