- The 742km extension to the NSW dog fence is underway, much to the relief of some farmers
- Wild dog attacks are estimated to cost farmers in the state about $22m per year and can be psychologically devastating
- Agriculture Minister Adam Marshall says the fence should turn the tide in what has been a "losing battle" with the predators
"We are doing all we can to manage wild dogs, and while the current dog fence does a great job, this extension will be a game-changer."
