We\u2019ve got to get the message out there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlus, of course, the reason we have such a massive feral cat and wild dog population is because people were not and are not desexing their pets.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operation Wanted also has some prizes of offer as an added incentive.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Two Harley Davidson motorcycles can be won and there are also two $500 World for Pets gift vouchers up for grabs.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Beatty said the desexing program was trialled in nine shires last year &#8211; including the South Burnett &#8211; and more than 6000 extra animals were desexed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This year it\u2019s statewide and next year we believe more and more vets and councils will come on board. We can\u2019t and mustn\u2019t give up the fight,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>* * *<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>South Burnett vets taking part:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Barambah Veterinary Surgery<\/strong><br \/>\n217 Haly Street, Kingaroy<br \/>\n(07) 4162-4060<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Burnett Mobile Vet<\/strong><br \/>\n82a Drayton Street, Nanango<br \/>\n(07) 4163-1566<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Kingaroy Veterinary Surgery<\/strong><br \/>\n30 Avoca Street, Kingaroy<br \/>\n(07) 4162-5511<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Murgon Veterinary Services<br \/>\n<\/strong>56 Douglas Street, Murgon<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>(07) 4168-1277<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Nanango Country Veterinary Services<\/strong><br \/>\n7 Fitzroy Street, Nanango<br \/>\n(07) 4163-3388<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>South Burnett Veterinary Services<\/strong><br \/>\n163 Youngman Street, Kingaroy<br \/>\n(07) 4162-4999<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Wooroolin Veterinary Services<\/strong><br \/>\n39 Alexander Street, Wooroolin<br \/>\n(07) 4164-2010<\/p>\n<p><strong>For vets in other areas, visit the Operation Wanted <a href=\"http:\/\/www.operationwanted.com.au\" target=\"_blank\">website<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>South Burnett vets will again be taking part in RSPCA Queensland&#8217;s statewide desexing campaign, dubbed &#8220;Operation Wanted&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":106280,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5,3],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.11 -
