Australia’s animal protection sector has published an open letter calling on the Albanese Government to fund the phase out of live sheep export in the upcoming Federal Budget and to legislate the trade’s end date. We know that a phase out of live sheep export is the only way forward. This trade, which has seen disaster after disaster, is simply unfixable. The animal welfare issues are cumulative and inherent, and cannot be adequately addressed by regulation. The majority of Australians support a phase out. It's time for the Government to take action.

Very few MEPs publicly say they don't care about animal welfare. Yet, over 300 million farmed animals are confined in cages every year.🤷♀️    We’ve taken the Commission to court to make sure it honours its promise and delivers a ban on caged farming as soon as possible, but new MEPs must ensure animal welfare is at the core of the next term.    After all, this is what Europeans want:    ❗84% think farmed animals should be better protected than they currently are in their country;  ❗83% support limiting the transport time of live farmed animals within or from the EU;  ❗ almost 90% of consumers support better animal welfare laws for farmed animals.    #EndtheCageAge #AnimalWelfare #EndIT #FactoryFarming

A General Election is just over two weeks away, and we’re calling for animal welfare to be a priority for the next UK Government.   You can support Hope Rescue’s aims for this election by asking your election candidates to prioritise animal welfare. What is their stance on our 5 priorities?   1.     Stronger breeding regulations to protect dogs from being bred in low welfare conditions or with innate health issues.   2.     Improved dog control legislation that tackles the root causes of dog-related incidents.   3.     Protection for imported pets including legislation to deal with puppy smuggling and ear-cropping.   4.     A phased end to greyhound racing in UK   5.     Statutory grants for animal welfare organisations.   In recent years, there have been missed opportunities to strengthen protections for vulnerable dogs, but there is a chance in the future for decision makers to bring positive change for animal welfare.

Today on #WorldAnimalDay, the European Commission has announced a delay in its animal welfare reforms, failing to deliver on proposals to "End the Cage Age" by 2023 as demanded by 1.4 million European citizens. Despite earlier promises, the Commission will now only proceed with live animal transport legislation. This greatly disappoints FOUR PAWS, as our concerns rise over the lack of action addressing the urgent need for comprehensive EU animal welfare reform. #AnimalWelfare #EU #EndTheCageAge

Addressing the pressing issue of stray animal overpopulation in the Philippines is crucial for public health and animal welfare. PETA and PAWS highlight the challenge: 12 million stray dogs and prolific feral cat colonies. This poses significant risks like rabies outbreaks. Controlling stray populations through neutering is vital. While individual adoptions are commendable, collective action is needed. Policymakers should prioritize this issue and strengthen animal protection laws. Collaboration between LGUs, animal welfare groups, and the private sector is key. Together, we can drive campaigns, promote adoption, and provide essential neutering services. Let's advocate for a society that respects and cares for its animals—a reflection of our national values. #AnimalWelfare #PublicHealth 🔗 https://lnkd.in/g57yNBpF
