A country council in SA wants corellas gassed in large numbers to reduce their impact, but the proposal is generating a mixed response.
However, others have responded with outrage, including one who wrote:"This makes me so cross. They bulldoze the scrub that the birds live in and then complain because the birds search for food".reaction! These birds are suffering just as the rest of the state is suffering from not enough rain and lack of their normal feeding areas," another said.
"Taking the last remaining flocks of corellas and poisoning or shooting or gassing them is an absolutely reckless idea."Large flocks of corellas are also creating issues in metropolitan areas, including Salisbury in Adelaide's north.
