Reporting pest animals

Reporting pest animals enables us to:

• manage control programs
• make sure potential pests don't establish populations in South Australia.

Non-established pest animals

Reporting non-established (reportable) pest animals is essential to stop them from spreading in the wild. Take these steps:

1. Take a photo of the animal and check it against the catalogue of pest animals in South Australia to help us identify it.
2. Capture the animal if you can. Securely contain it and give it food and water.
3. Whether you capture it or not, please report it to:
   • Pest Alert Hotline: 1800 084 881

Established pest animals

Use Feral Scan to report established pest animals.

This is particularly important for wild dogs, to help us monitor pest control targets.
