📢 Exciting News! 📣
Emma Hurst has just secured a desperately needed and long overdue parliamentary inquiry into NSW's broken pound system.
🐶🐱 For too long, animals have suffered in our inadequate, underfunded, and outdated pounds.

UPDATE
Racing Cancelled due to public pressure!
"Thank you every person who commented, emailed & called the Racing Minister!
The industry knows that we're all watching & we will continue to watch what is occurring at this track & every track across the country."

"We would love @NSWLabor to follow Singapore's lead - let's get rid of racetracks & build much needed public & social housing ...
Right now NSW Govt. is clearing prime koala habitat in Campbelltown, in Port Stephens & up the coast to make way for housing developments!"
@AJPNSW
I just sent in an objection to a proposed cattle feedlot on the Central Coast, will you also speak up for the animals, environment, and locals? https://t.co/XsuYIrDNJA
A common practice within the zoo industry is pulling young joeys from their mothers to hand raise. They do this so they can have docile and people friendly wallabies for visitors to walk among and feed
No consideration is given to the joey or the mother #notozoos#notocaptiivty
Today is #EarthDay🌎
And animal agriculture remains the number one user of land and one of the leading global contributors of biodiversity loss and climate change—the effects of which we are beginning to witness more and more each day.
Animal stories are earth day stories.
There’s an Orange-bellied Parrot at Lake Connewarre.
And Victoria’s recreational duck shooting season commences on Wednesday.
Andersons Inlet was already closed to protect the critically endangered bird after one was sighted.
It would be inconsistent to not do the same.
We need better strategies to save koalas - time for virtual fencing, wildlife crossings, funding for rescue groups, a Great Koala National Park, and a stop to native forest logging.

Dairy farm fires are horrific and all too common. Not one of these animals should have burned alive because not one of us needs to drink cow's milk.
