Challenging live animal exports: New Zealand's animal welfare debate

New Zealanders are being urged to say ‘no’ to the return of live exports by sea in a petition jointly supported by the country’s leading animal advocates including SPCA - https://petitions.parliament.nz/79ff1ae2-f2e8-43c5-6c98-08dc33f5abe2  Joining me today from the front lines of animal advocacy is Dr Arnja Dale of the SPCA. We tackle the complexities surrounding this debated practice, dissecting the grim realities of animal welfare, the smokescreen of economic benefits, and the potential blemishes on our nation's esteemed reputation for high standards of animal care. As the public's outcry against the trade grows louder, we grapple with the implications of revoking the ban on our international trade relationships and the unsettling secrecy that shrouds the industry. This episode is a compelling journey through these pressing issues, where the well-being of animals and our ecosystem is at the forefront. Learn more about your ad choices.
