Tracking bait fate: reducing the ‘unknowns’ in baiting programs

This trial demonstrated the current baiting program used in the Gascoyne region is likely to be an effective method of reducing wild dogs on the ground. Bait fate knowledge was improved by the use of mini transmitters. However, limitations with camera traps producing images of sufficient quality to identify individual animals potentially hindered wild dog density estimates. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract

This trial demonstrated the current baiting program used in the Gascoyne region is likely to be an effective method of reducing wild dogs on the ground. Bait fate knowledge was improved by the use of mini transmitters. However, limitations with camera traps producing images of sufficient quality to identify individual animals potentially hindered wild dog density estimates. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.
