__________________________________
Recently, the Northern Territory government announced plans to kill 3000 camels by means of aerial shooting in the township of Docker River.
Thirsty and in search of water, the camels converged on the community of Docker River. Instead of assisting the community by building barriers to keep the camels out of the township and investing in long term solutions such as research into birth control or the construction of a manmade waterhole for the camels to drink from, the government are planning to herd the animals away from the town, shoot them and leave their bodies to rot.
Please take a moment to voice your concerns ...DISAPPOINTMENT.. over the PRESENT cull. Simply fill in the form and click send.
Personal letters carry more weight, but please keep them polite!
