Premier Peter Malinauskas and Racing Minister Katrine Hildyard, look at the greyhounds killed racing due to your inaction in 2024. We will not stop fighting until this horror show ends. We are only getting louder.

Premier David Crisafulli & Minister Tim Mander, Albion Park and Ipswich caused the most injuries out of all tracks in Aus last year. In response, the Qld Govt has spent $85 million on a new racing venue in Ipswich. We won't stop fighting until this horror show ends.

#RIP, Ramblin' Ethics 💔

His death comes just weeks after his sister, Shelly's Ethics, was killed after suffering a broken leg in QLD on Christmas Eve 2024.

Contact Minister Harris and demand he takes action, now: www.nsw.gov.au/nsw-governme...

#QLD is the killing state for greyhounds.

Last year, industry participants rushed to kill their unwanted greyhounds before a new rules came into effect that would reduce the numbers killed annually.

In just 3 months, 73 dogs were labelled "unrehomeable" and killed by complicit vets.

Premier Jacinta Allan and Minister Anthony Carbines, your inaction in 2024 caused immense suffering. 46 dogs died on your tracks, twice as many as any other state. They were so young, averaging 2 years and 9 months. We won't rest until this cruel industry ends.

Rodeos are insanely cruel. Many injuries are not apparent yet these sentient animals suffer horribly. BAN rodeos. Once I protested a rodeo in person and the attendees threw raw hotdogs at me. That’s their mentality !! 😡
Right now, terrified calves are being chased, violently yanked to the ground by their necks & forced to endure this horror again & again ...
When their bodies give out, they're discarded, sent to the slaughterhouse ...
