Share your views on feral pig and deer management

The NSW Independent Biosecurity Commissioner is undertaking a review of feral pig and deer management in NSW.

This next stage of the review is seeking feedback on barriers and incentives to land manager participation, opportunities to strengthen coordinated action, and the role of compliance and enforcement in supporting regional outcomes. 

The commissioner is seeking feedback from land managers, industry, community groups, recreational and volunteer hunters, pest management contractors, government, and others involved in or impacted by feral pigs and deer in NSW.

You can have your say via the consultation website and the commissioner also encourages NSW councils to share this consultation opportunity and direct people to the consultation website by 5pm Monday 27 July 2026.

Before providing feedback, please read the Consultation Paper: Background on Land Manager Participation in Feral Pig and Deer Management in NSW.

Further information about the review of feral pig and deer management in NSW is available on the Commissioner’s website.
