Elephants go to court costing zoos big money


So now the International Fund for Animal Welfare and three other international leftist environmental groups are using the Administrative Appeals Tribunal to challenge the approval for Taronga to import captive Asian Elephants from Thailand. Taronga reports on 2BL that this will delay the importation by at least 2 months and cost the zoo hundreds of thousands dollars. Money that could be invested in animal conservation and education. IFFAW and other greens style conservation groups are causing irreversible damage to their reputations and those of more moderate conservation groups along the way.

You can contact them here info-au@ifaw.org and ask them to stop wasting the money of our zoos and withdraw their spiteful legal challenge.

The why are you spending your time on this? Ratepayers are paying you to do council work on local issues.
We are not interested in your zoo philosophy.
