    Well Liz, there's nothing humane about dumping vermin in fragile ecosystems where they will kill and displace native flora and fauna, many of them endangered species. I have devoted my life and career to understanding, protecting and managing these special places and the ever pervasive attitude that bushland is just a dumping ground will always upset me. But I guess everyone doesn't have the same values for the environment that I do, and that's just life hey.

    If you can't kill your prisoner then the only humane option I can see would be to keep it as a pet.

    we have traps set - the little mongrel keeps taking the bait and running! i was just changing DD's nappy at the change table and he came out of hiding four or five times within metres of me! not happy!

    we tried the cat - he has a catch and release philosophy - so now he protects the shed not allowed inside any more.
