List of government animal eradication programs : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of government animal eradication programs Historically, there have been cases where the extermination of animal species has been politically endorsed because the animals have been considered harmful. In some cases the animals have been hunted because the animals present a danger to human lives, at other times they have been hunted because they are harmful to human interests such as livestock farming. This article refers to animals in a more limited sense; it does not include humans. In a number of cases, such government endorsed hunting has led to the endangerment or outright extinction of the species. == Thylacine ==
* The thylacine was an Tasmanian predator which was responsible for a significant number of attacks on unconfined livestock, leading to a public sentiment of hostility against the species. A bounty of between 6/- (for fewer than ten kills) and 10/- (for each kill beyond ten) on the thylacine was established by the Van Diemen's Land Co in 1836. In 1888 the government introduced a bounty of £1 for each adult scalp, and 10/- per juvenile, and a number of sheep farmers offered similar rewards. The subsequent slaughter of the animals was a key factor in their extinction.〔(The Natural History of Thylacinus Cynocephalus )〕
