PRESS RELEASE STB INC. 16.03.2010Queensland,
The Sunshine State is raining blood, the blood of Australia’s Heritage Brumby horses in Carnarvon National Park. 2000 horses targeted for a cruel, agonising death at the hands of so called ‘trained’ park rangers with high powered rifles will die in April. Foals will linger, lost, and die of starvation without their dams.
International concern and condemnation has resulted - and we are very grateful to the French animal welfare organisation Foundation Brigitte Bardot which has written to Queenland Premier Anna Bligh to protest and offer assistance to progress humane management techniques.

THE RESPONSE FROM THE QUEENSLAND GOVERNMENT IS DISSAPPOINTING ! When will governments invest in the development of non-lethal methods of control ! To view the reply to the FBB from Anna Bligh Click Here .
Australians, WAKE UP …. contact your local members, contact Kevin Rudd, contact Qld. Premier, Anna Bligh. This is happening here, now … how can we, as the public, make our Federal and State Governments introduce sustainable management and redirect over $300.000 of tax payers’ money into alternatives. DO IT NOW.
