Spending the holidays in NSW State Forests?
You could be a target

Today the Greens will set up camp in the Sydney CBD to alert the public to popular recreational areas in NSW State Forests that now also allow hunting of feral animals.

NSW Greens MPs Ian Cohen and Lee Rhiannon will launch a notification hotline (0437 597 586) at the event.

The Greens will distribute guides to NSW State Forests camping, bushwalking and fishing areas where hunters are allowed, placing holiday makers in danger on the October long weekend and in the school holidays.

Where: Martin Place, near Macquarie Street
