How we can help you

The primary mission of the CWM Qld is to provide volunteer self funded pest animal management to landholders, state and local governments, natural resource and conservation organisations.  In cooperation with landowners and managers, a property assessment is carried out followed by the formulation of an integrated pest management plan.  Volunteer teams are then allocated to implement the agreed plan.

Other important activities our organisation undertakes from time to time include trapping, scientific data collection, animal and plant surveys, flood recovery clean up and general assistance for property owners to help check dams and stock, repair fences and general property maintenance.

Strict management practices and guidelines are implemented for each and every field operation.  We have developed protocols and standard operating procedures to document and sign off each project before we deploy our teams into the field.  Occupational health and safety, hunter ethics and animal welfare are key values that underpin all of our activities.  Our volunteers operate under a strict ‘code of conduct’ and breeches of conduct are not tolerated by the organisation.
