I am a member of a group doing our best to preserve a peri-urban Conservation Reserve near my home in Qld. Feral species of plants and animals are dealt with under the Biosecurity legislation in Qld. Thus, cats, deer, pigs, and once, horses (brumbies) are removed quickly by those whose responsibility it is to remove those species. Politicians do not get involved at any time.
I am happy to argue that the horse issue in the high country of NSW and Vic has re-election value to one side of state politics and that muddies the water, so to speak. Maybe the way around the constant debate is to revisit the NP legislation and make clear the intent and purpose of creating National Parks as the preservation for the benefit of all and not allow special interest groups to spoil the national asset preserved in National Parks.

Not sure about that if I'm reading it correctly:
"This petition of NSW residents and visitors to Kosciuszko National Park"
You could try submitting but just don't tick the "I am a resident of New South Wales" check box, which I assume is optional based on usual conventions.
The more of us the better .

It would have been a doddle and very cheap to at least start on them during the BHP deer culls, but bureaucracy needs to run its course I suppose.

I tried but it only has provision for a NSW resident whom I guess also has to visit KNP.
