IN A DISASTER,
THEY HAVE NO ONE.
Australia's laws fail them. Our response forgets them. It's time for a National Plan.
Animals Impacted (2019–20)
Economic Toll (Monsoon Flood)
Rescuer Trauma Rate
A PLAN FOR EVERYONE
NO NATIONAL PLAN
Australia lacks a federal mandate. Rescue efforts are a patchwork, leaving animals stranded when every second is critical.
THE HUMAN COST
Guardians risk their lives to save pets. The psychological trauma of forced abandonment affects first responders for a lifetime.
A SOLVABLE ISSUE
This is achievable. With legislated integration and permanent funding, we create a future where no animal is left behind.
"ALL WE FOUND
WERE BONES."
"It's a monstrous event in terms of geography and the number of individual animals affected… we can't allow catastrophes of this magnitude to continue."
— PROFESSOR CHRIS DICKMAN, UNIVERSITY OF SYDNEY
VOICES OF THE MOVEMENT
"During the bushfires, we had no idea where to take our horses. We felt so alone. A national plan is long overdue."
— Sarah, NSW Guardian
"As a volunteer, the lack of coordination is heartbreaking. We need clear leadership to give these animals a fighting chance."
— David, QLD Wildlife Volunteer
"I've emailed my minister. It's so easy to do, and it's a powerful way to demand change for those who cannot speak."
— Chloe, VIC Activist
