EXPEDITED SUPREME COURT CASE
“In April this year, National Parks commenced a large scale operation to cull brumbies from all areas of the Kosciuszko National Park.
The culling has been undertaken by National Parks using aerial shooting, which involves shooting each of the brumbies on average between 7 and 15 times from helicopters.
National Parks have advised that thousands of brumbies have been shot to date across KNP.”

Funding is not only desperately needed — but needed quickly — to help cover the significant legal costs of this Supreme Court challenge.

YOU CAN HELP STOP THIS BARBARIC INHUMANE SLAUGHTER
A wild horse has the same capacity to feel pain and fear as a native animal, and their lives deserve the same level of dignity and respect.
We need to find a way to protect the native animals at risk, without hunting down Brumbies with helicopters, ground shooting or hauling them to be slaughtered at knackeries.
We urge you to join us in demanding the NSW government stop this cruel cull and adopt humane, non-lethal solutions.
1. Contact the PM & the MPs responsible: Make your voice heard! Demand an end to your tax dollars being used to massacre Brumbies.
2. Sign this petition: Show the government the overwhelming public opposition to this barbaric practice. BUT hurry before it's too late.
3. Contact the RSPCA NSW: Wild horses are suffering under RSPCA NSW inaction. Take a stand. Add your voice - fill out a quick form and urge others to join you.
4. Donate: We are a volunteer-run organization relying on your support to end this cruelty. Every donation -- no matter what size -- gets us closer to our goal.
