Closed areas: Yanga Homestead Planned Closure due to Rabbit baiting

The Yanga Homestead precinct in Yanga National Park will be closed from 8:30am, Friday 29 November to 4:30pm, Sunday 15 December, 2024 for ground 1080 & Pindone baiting for feral animal control. All other visitor areas of the park will remain open including day-use areas and campgrounds.

Signs will be placed at the entry to the baiting location. Domestic pets are not permitted in national parks and other NPWS managed lands. Pets and working dogs may be affected (1080 is lethal to cats and dogs). Pets and working dogs must be restrained or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location.
