Why can’t the Brumbies just stay where they are – wild and free?
There are a couple of reasons. Firstly, the Government has declared Brumbies a feral pest and as such is now responsible for removing them from the wild. Secondly, in high numbers, they do cause untold damage to some of our more sensitive ecosystems. We support the ethical and humane management of the wild population of Brumbies. We DO NOT support any of the methods that the government feels are ‘humane’ such as aerial or ground shooting or mustering Brumbies and sending them to knackeries. Please tell your friends about our Brumbies – the more we can rehome and raise their profile, the fewer will end up in knackeries!
