Great pictures, Grant - thanks... I heard a disturbing rumour, regarding the devils' mouth tumours... Possibly they are getting this tumour from the 1080 poisons that are being put down... Dunno how true it is.

yeah, environmentalists are claiming that its from the devils eating the animals killed by 1080.
Devils are not predators, they scrounge for food, and mainly eat whats already dead. so they are ingesting the 1080 that way.

i dont know if there is any truth in it, but 1080 poison isnt the best way to get rid of vermin in the first place.

1080....I haven't heard anything about that, I'll have to do some more research.

Update:

From Tasmanian Times website posted by a user:
Quote:
For your information, 1080 will stop being used in State Forests starting in December this year. That will leave farmers as the main users of 1080 in the State.
