Minister Harris, you can stop this. Will you act or keep letting this industry kill dogs? #bangreyhoundracing

Tasmania is banning greyhound racing!

The state will phase out this cruel industry and end taxpayer funding by 2029.

The ACT did it in 2018. Now it’s time for NSW to follow, step up, end the funding, phase out the industry and protect animals.

Still racing. Still suffering. Still hidden.

The taxpayer-funded GWIC has blocked public access to records of dogs who died in the racing industry, dogs still being bred, raced, injured, and whose suffering is being hidden. The long-awaited Drake Inquiry remains unreleased.

#EndGreyhoundRacing
The greyhound racing industry hates that the public can track the fate of dogs injured while racing and killed later. Now the NSW regulator is stepping in.

Yesterday marked the dreaded day, when 51 shark nets were once again dropped into NSW beaches.

This year, 3 councils, will trial the removal of a net at one beach each. It’s a small step, but nowhere near enough.

Shark nets don’t keep swimmers safe, they kill marine life.

Apple Pie was killed at the Bulli track. AJP Illawarra Leader Tim Lavers said:
“Greyhounds are heavy animals going 60km/h — if they hit something, they die; if they fall, they die.”
“It’d be like throwing them from a moving car, and no one would think that throwing dogs from a moving car is OK.”

Tasmanian Govt has committed to ending its greyhound racing funding by 2029.

Is it soon enough? No. Will greyhounds die in Tas before 2029? Yes.

But it's progress. The writing is on the wall. Greyhound racing is going the way of the dinosaur. #AusPol

It’s been a week since the Drake Inquiry report was handed to the NSW Racing Minister and the public is still in the dark.

The public deserves to see it in full, without delay or redactions.

We’re calling for its immediate release. Greyhounds can’t wait.
