Charges laid in Koala Massacre
#1
Charges have been laid against a land owner and two companies that were  involved in killing and injuring a number of Koalas while clearing timber in Feb 2020.
They face more than 250 counts of animal cruelty. Twenty one koalas were found dead and dozens were injured. Of the injured, 49 had to be euthanized.
The accused are charged with causing unreasonable pain and suffering to animals and with destroying a protected species.

When you think of the timing, this was right after many koalas died in the wildfires. We were all still grieving the loss when these people deliberately let koalas be killed by their actions. Koalas need all the help they can get to survive. These people callously killed and maimed koalas. I hope they get the maximum penalty possible. There needs to be a very strong message about what happens if you kill endangered wildlife or commit acts of animal cruelty.
