Email Liberal MPs: The Federal Coalition say they support brumbies - now NSW must vote that way

Liberal leader Angus Taylor has spoken out to stop the aerial shooting of brumbies in Kosciuszko National Park. But the NSW Liberal Party voted to remove protections for the brumbies and voted consistently to kill them. 

If the Liberal Party changes their vote to stop the horses being killed, we may have the numbers in the NSW Upper House to stop further cruelty. 

We need NSW Liberal MPs to publicly change their position NOW to align with their leader and stand with the communities opposing the killing. 

The aerial shooting is horrific, cruel and devastating for communities across NSW. Horses are being shot and left to suffer with severe wounds. Pregnant mares are being killed. Foals are being orphaned and left to die. This is a bloodbath.

We're asking Liberal MPs to publicly change their position and commit to supporting an end to the killing of Brumbies in Kosciuszko National Park and to support investment in humane alternatives.

Aerial shooting does not provide long-term solutions and does not work. Immunocontraception (fertility control) has been used successfully to manage wild horse populations in similar terrain in the United States. It is humane, effective and scientifically proven, yet this alternative remains ignored in favour of killing programs. The Liberal Party has the opportunity to stand with affected communities and the Brumbies. Animal welfare matters. Humane solutions exist.
