The National Kangaroo Protection Coalition is an alliance of 22 Australian
animal welfare and wildlife protection groups. Some of these groups
have thousands of members.
Pat O’Brien, the President of the Wildlife Protection Association
of Australia is the coordinator of the NKPC, and can be contacted
at info@wildlifeprotectaust.org.au
Simone Gray is
the President of Animal Liberation ACT and has been at the forefront
of this campaign since it began. Her tireless efforts and those of
all the campainers are now in the spotlight worldwide. If you live
locally and want to help, Simone can be contacted at info@al-act.org.
Currently,
together with the Australian Wildlife Protection Council and the
World League for Protection of Animals we have appealed the Federal
Ministers
decision to approve the
Qld, SA, and WA Kangaroo Management Plans in the Administrative
Appeals
Tribunal. We have had 4 days of Hearings, and the Hearings resume
in August.
