Not that long ago I heard a story that the then EPA was flying them over to the island daily at considerable cost because none of them wanted to live there. Why not?

Then we had the dingo fence saga.. try whacking a great big dirty fence through indigenous lands (or even remnant vegetation designated land for that matter) on the main land and you’d be looking at all sorts of penalties but apparently its ok to do it on Fraser.

Shoot an animal over here for no good reason and you’d have the RSPCA on your doorstep in a flash.. but apparently not on Fraser Island.

Then there’s the imaginary crocodile.. how many 1000s of dollars were wasted here, there and everywhere on crocodile warning signs? What about all the various sharks and other ‘predators’ that have been in our oceans for ever? Shouldn’t we have warning signs everywhere for them also?

We’ve become too much like the americans – we’re becoming too litagious to enjoy our country’s natural beauty. Are the EPA / DERN that paranoid of being sued because a dingo so much as looks at a tourist the wrong way?

Here’s food for thought:
