A PETITION lodged by Victoria Valley farmers, John and Rhonda Crawford has received more than 4000 signatures since this time last year opposing the proposed plan to reintroduce dingoes into the Grampians National Park.

The Crawford’s property backs on to the Grampians National Park, and they, along with many other local farmers and citizens, have significant concerns about the potential harm and impact the plan will have on the local sheep and wool industry.
