Bounty program update

The Victorian Government has recently announced the continuation of the Victorian Fox Bounty to 30 June 2026. The reward payments will remain at the increased rate of $14 per fox scalp.

In line with previous years, the bounty program will cease temporarily in October 2025 and recommence in March 2026. Please refer to the bounty collection schedule for a list of times, dates and locations.

Participants are encouraged to create an online bounty account to streamline the application process and ensure prompt electronic payment. Payment by cheque is no longer available.

Participants are reminded that the wild dog component of the bounty ended in 2024 and wild dog body parts will no longer be accepted at collection centres.
