Wallaby control


The Otago Pest Plan requires land occupiers in Otago to destroy wallabies on their land. To find out more about wallabies and why they are a pest, click here.


You must also notify the ORC within two days of seeing wallabies or signs of wallabies. This is so they can investigate the wider area and implement control measures as required.


Find out more about wallaby control in the guidebook: Wallaby Guidebook.
