Although fireworks are a favourite among humans, they can be pretty terrifying for our furry and feathered friends. Here are a few things you can do to make sure your best friends are kept safe on NYE ✨👉 https://animalsaus.co/3TCNLfd

Many of us will be spending time with family in the coming days - with people who love us and make us feel safe. Just like us, kangaroos form strong and complex family bonds. But these gentle families are being torn apart after the sun goes down across their homeland 💔

Greyhound racing at Wentworth Park in Sydney will come to an end, with the state government announcing that the track will be demolished in late 2027. The area will instead become community sporting grounds and a park, as the racing industry concedes ‘the world has moved on’. 📝🧡🐾

BREAKING: ALDI has announced it will not meet its commitment for 100% cage-free eggs this year, pushing back to 2030. 💔 The move is sadly in line with Coles and Woolworths, who both also announced delays in September. Help us take action for hens now: https://animalsaus.co/45uOyF0

Our team provided input to so many legal reform processes in 2025! 📝 It’s not work that makes the headlines, but each submission is a chance to make sure animals have their welfare, and their rights, considered by decision makers. Each is a step towards transformative change! 🙌

This week we appeared in the Supreme Court for our landmark legal challenge on behalf of pigs, and we’re sorry to say it didn’t go as we’d hoped. Thank you for standing with us as we pursue justice for them. We will keep you updated on our next steps, but it's fair to say, this is far from over.

HUGE NEWS: The national public health agency of the United States, the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is putting an end to its use of monkeys in experiments. This is a powerful precedent for animals in labs worldwide, whose suffering is so often hidden from public view. ❤️‍🩹

Living beings are not gifts for Christmas. They are family for life.

What is your message and how do you live it?

Right now, the WA Parliament is conducting a public inquiry into greyhound racing, and your submission could shape the future for thousands of dogs. It only takes 10 minutes. Please make your submission today: https://animalsaus.co/47AmRvg Thank you 🫶

The Tasmanian government has introduced legislation to parliament to end greyhound racing by mid-2029. In August, the government announced it would stop funding greyhound racing, effectively putting an end to it. This legislation takes this a step further to see the industry officially banned.

Closer every day, because caring people like you will not let their suffering go unnoticed and unchallenged.

Did you know that an Australian ‘game meat’ business wants government approval to keep killing wallabies and their joeys to export their fur, skin and flesh overseas? Learn more & speak up here: animalsaustralia.org/our-work/wil...

What will you choose?

What happens when the race that stops the nation also stops you from seeing the horses that don’t finish?

The way things were are not always the way things should be. We can’t change the past. But we can shape a kinder future.

Imagine thinking that beating an animal with a whip was *ever* 'ok'. The horse racing industry accepts this abuse as 'normal'.

Looking for lollies that are animal-friendly AND delicious. We've got you covered 🍭😋

Heartbroken to confirm Dr Mu’ath Abu Rakba, a skilled, compassionate vet with @sulalaanimalsaver.bsky.social, has been killed. He disappeared last week trying to return to his home in Gaza. Dr Mu’ath, thank you. You gave peace to so many who suffered. May you now find that same peace. 💔

We all have more in common than differences that set us apart. We all long for companionship, compassion, and respect. We are all deserving of lives free from abuse.

Just days after the announcement of a ceasefire in Gaza, Sulala Animal Rescue’s dedicated veterinarian, Dr Mu’ath Abu Rakba, has been reported missing, and several members of his family have been killed. 💔 We hold hope in our hearts that he will be found safe and well.

They deserve to be here, and they deserve to be safe. 🧡

With the announcement of the first phase of a ceasefire deal being struck, there's hope on the horizon for the people and animals of Gaza. Significant uncertainty remains around what changes will be made to the aid supply and distribution process. We will keep you updated as the situation unfolds🙏

We believe, that because of caring people like you, the world can change. Thank you for showing up here to have conversations that matter. Conversations about animals. About the world we live in. And how we as individuals — and as a caring collective — can make a difference in the lives of others.

Her message of peace and hope is one we stand to live by every day. 🧡
 Thank you, Dr. Jane Goodall. The world is kinder because you were here. May you rest knowing your compassion lives on in a global movement for animals and our planet.

Because our laws don't protect them. Because compassion doesn't discriminate. Because our treatment of the defenceless, defines us. Because they are someone, not something.

While all whales have been released, their hours of struggle could have grave consequences as they continue their long journey south. There are non-lethal alternatives to shark nets. Urge the government to take action now: https://animalsaus.co/3IMo60y

Every act of kindness is a beacon of hope 🧡

In the wild, life is rich with choice, connection, challenge, and freedom. In zoos – behind bars, glass walls, moats and fences – they experience only a fraction of the lives they were born to live.

"No live export vessels are scheduled to take sheep from Australia to the Middle East for the rest of 2025, raising speculation an unofficial end to the trade could come ahead of a legislated ban in 2028."

All that matters. It is enough.

Everyone deserves comfort, friendship and safety. 🐷🐶

After being visited multiple times by authorities, Farm Transparency Project investigators returned to Andgar Piggery as well as other properties owned by the same company. This is what they found.

More than 5 million hens in Australia are still trapped in wire cages without enough space to spread their wings. We must do better for them. It’s time for a ban on battery cages to be legislated in every state and territory: animalsaus.co/45uOyF0

There are as few as just 2,700 dingoes left in Victoria.💔 And yet the government permits dingoes to be killed by poison, trapping and shooting. So we're suing the Victorian Government. Find out more about the case and how you can help: https://animalsaus.co/3JNQEqP #ThreatenedSpeciesDay

Once their mothers have been shot, this is the best death joeys can hope for - to be bludgeoned against a ute tray. Since shooting occurs in remote areas at night time, this “Code of Practice” is impossible to enforce. If this is what “humane” looks like, what happens when no one is looking?

It’s the time of year in Australia when magpies start protecting their families by swooping strangers they perceive as threats. Remaining calm and giving them space is the kindest response to their warning swoops. And since magpies can recognise human faces, your kindness will be paid in return.🧡

Hundreds of thousands of unwanted calves are condemned to death — killed as ‘waste products’ — by the Australian dairy industry every year. 💔

Even after bushfires or floods devastate Australia, shooters continue to kill kangaroos — all for the sake of profit. Few people know this. Even fewer know what happens to their young... https://animalsaus.co/3HmBkk0

A philosophy to live by 🧡

He can’t lay eggs, so his life is thrown away 💔 Hens in the egg industry are killed when they’re around 18 months old and replaced. It may seem obvious that only female chickens can lay eggs, but most people never consider what happens to the males — they’re killed in their first day of life.

Draining government coffers to contribute to gambling profits and animal cruelty. Does continuing greyhound racing seem logical to you?

What's the biggest knowledge gap you see?

BREAKING: The Tasmanian State Government will stop its funding for greyhound racing in the state, effectively putting an end to it. The Tasmanian Premier said it is increasingly clear that greyhound racing “does not align with community expectations.”

A dose of hope ✨ Pass it on.

A shooter will make him an orphan in minutes, a carer will spend months teaching him how to feel safe again. While the commercial kangaroo skin and meat industry continues to kill kangaroos, there are many wonderful people working to protect and care for them. Thank you 🧡

The number of live sheep exported from Australia has fallen to the lowest levels on record. Reporting this week in rural publication, Farm Online, called the trade “a twilight industry” and that “live sheep export is dying, and the trend is global.” 👀
