What's wrong with controlling an animal population that is out of control and dangerous to humans? I'm more likely to want to go to Bali because of the culling, it'll make me and my family feel safer.
Australia has had a dog poisoning program for years and years, with 1080 baits laid on the ground and dropped by air in affected areas. The Ag Department hires "Doggers" to travel around setting baits and traps, many Aborigine people have earnt an income for years doing this.
Boycott Bali? What a joke! Why not boycott Australia as well? Air fares are really cheap at the moment and you could crack a special to go and settle somewhere else where they don't cull dogs. I'm sure you could get a cheap fare to Cuckoo Land!! :)
