30 October, Sydney Australia – Humane Society International Australia (HSI) has released Licence to Kill, a report that reveals how licenced private landholders are killing native Australian wildlife at scale. The report shows that licensed private landholders across Australia were lawfully allowed to kill at least 1.2 million native animals...
Every year, Australia’s state and territory governments allow private
landholders to kill hundreds of thousands of native animals—animals that
are otherwise protected by law.
For the first time ever, the Licence to Kill report quantifies the national scale of the
licensed killing of Australia’s native wildlife using data obtained from state
and territory governments.
