BackOperation
Carrying out invasive ungulate control operations
This operation aims at culling invasive ungulates in priority biodiversity and ecosystem service preservation areas. Community support is crucial in achieving this and requires previously consulting the local inhabitants, particularly tribes, living near the management sites. The project will also require training the relevant stakeholders in several management methods, including trapping and stalking, prior to implementing invasive ungulate culling based on these methods, which will be adapted to the various geographical and social contexts.

Prior to taking management measures, the agreement and support of local communities needs to be secured so as to gain access to the management sites and agree together on where and when the various control methods will be used. Consultations will be held throughout culling and receive backup from a communication component.
• Consultation: approval by local communities (traditional leaders) on project implementation; + management methods; + collaboratively define the areas (designated on a map) in which culling will be carried out by participatory hunts, through incentivised events and by professionals on the ground or in helicopters.
• Communication: information on progress throughout the project + final feedback

Several invasive ungulate management methods have been recommended, namely hunting drives, helicopter hunts and professional hunting on the ground. Training in hunting drives will be given to local hunters (from Melanesian tribal villages) and focus on safety. Training in helicopter hunting will be provided to a restricted number of identified marksmen. It will lead to certification and be dispensed by an approved entity, focusing on marksmanship and shooting from a helicopter. The professional ground-hunting training will be for experienced hunters and build their capacity and effectiveness. Training will also be provided for participatory trapping around tribal settlements and traps will be provided for laying in areas near tribal settlements for crop protection.

Implementing the various recommended methods in a coordinated manner will help meet water-catchment management needs in advance. Helicopter hunting is the most cost-effective option and can be practised above grasslands enclosed by or adjacent to rugged terrain. Professional hunters could be deployed, possibly by helicopter, to carry out culls in remote priority areas over several consecutive days at a time. Hunting drives in the most accessible areas outside tribal subsistence hunting areas will help cull ungulates and the game can be sold by the participants.
