Target: Annastascia Palaszczuk, Premier of Queensland, Australia
Goal: Demand immediate intervention in an indigenous community where thousands of dogs are reportedly being neglected and beaten.
Volunteers working within the indigenous community of Yarrabah in Queensland, Australia report that rampant abuse and neglect of the community’s dogs is ongoing and has been taking place for years. They allege that dogs are frequently beaten by members of the community or denied veterinary care. Demand justice and immediate intervention for these innocent dogs.
The volunteers, including 59-year-old Lyn Dadd, have reportedly taken thousands of dogs to area vets over the past several years with a host of troubling conditions, ranging from severe malnourishment to hacked-off paws. Allegedly, some of the dogs have had to be euthanized due to the extent of their injuries or neglect. Dadd claims that many of the dogs have endured these horrific conditions for months without any assistance from their human caretakers.
More support is needed for these volunteers and animal management workers to ensure that this alleged rampant abuse is put to an end. If these reports are found to be true, those responsible for beating or starving these animals must face appropriate punishment and these animals must be removed at once. Sign below and demand justice and an end to suffering for these dogs.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Premier Palaszczuk,
Dogs and puppies living in the indigenous community of Yarrabah are reportedly living in horrific conditions and subject to rampant neglect and abuse. Per accounts from council volunteers, dogs have been found beaten, missing paws, scalded with burns and near death from starvation. We demand justice for these innocent animals.
Thousands of dogs have reportedly been taken from the community over the past several years alone, with multiple instances of abuse believed to be occurring each week within the community. Allegedly, many of these dogs are allowed to roam on the outskirts of the town without any veterinary care, including routine spaying or neutering that would control their population, which has exploded as a result. If the volunteers’ accounts are true, this situation is unacceptable and must be brought to an end. We demand that the Queensland government intervene immediately and make sure that these dogs are removed at once and that those responsible for their mistreatment receive appropriate punishment under law.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Who are these people? Why not remove all dogs from them and keep them away from these people/
Hard to believe, the blindness to cruelty that, I a just ordinary citizen, has to highlight it to a supposedly educated minister of government.
Barbaric, subhuman species. Hope they rot in hell. Abusing innocent animals. Heartless, cruel, evil people. Disgusts me.
CAN’T BELIEVE THIS TORTURE IS HAPPENING IN A MODERN AUSTRALIA–REMOVE ALL DOGS IMMEDIATELY AND ALSO OTHER ABUSED ANIMALS–I PRAY YOU SICKOS GET THROWN IN JAIL AND ALL THE ABUSED DOGS GET JUSTICE….HOW WOULD THEY LIKE TO BE STARVED AND HAVE THEIR FEET HACKED OFF??
Totally agree with you- those responsible need some torture, wicked, evil scum: take them somewhere remote and leave to perish JUSTICE FOR ALL ANIMALS
Hello Australia, wake up, something is happening in your country with a indigenous community and their dogs …
It should be against the law for that area to own any pets. No one can take care of them. The poor animals are getting beaten, neglected, tortured. Make it a law that they can’t own any pets. As for the new problems, charge every single person with animal cruelty
Most aborigines have an atrocious reputation for their treatment of animals.These bastards must have maximum penalties imposed and also be banned from having contact with animals.Mandatory spay and neuter of dogs and cats is essential and veterinary intervention re vaccinations etc.
Unless I’m mistaking these “natives” have endured terrible abuse for centuries at the hands of colonist. Have they not learned a damn thing about care, mercy for other beings? Perhaps they belong back in shackles.
I think they do – jungle bunny types are not civilised and still act like cavemen and the poor animals suffer, God Bless them and please grant JUSTICE FOR ALL ANIMALS
Show your authority Queensland government by removing the helpless and voiceless dogs from the violence, brutality and domination perpetrated by this indigenous community and punishing the animal abusers under your law. Present an image to Australia and the rest of the world that you are creating a better world for all beings!
Stupid,ignorant people. They need long jail time to think about what have done or allowed to be done.
If this was a white community, RSPCA would be involved with charges pending – being indigenous is no excuse for animal cruelty. We are ALL one under the Law aren’t we???
Ignorance, pure ignorance. Obviously a very violent people. Someone needs to step in NOW to take these animals and educate these ignorant people.
This is bloody despicable,governments don’t want to touch this issue or the sexual abuse that is happening in some of the communities.unfortunately if they abuse their children so violently the animals haven’t got a hope in hell.
Info as per Google maps:
Yarrabah, traditionally Yagaljida in the Yidin language spoken by the indigenous Yidinji people, is an Aboriginal community….
Does not show aboriginals in a positive light.
Animal abuse is found in many native communities throughout Canada and USA – see stats.
Australia’s government: Stop sitting on the fence! 20 years of hard labor may clear their heads. No animals for abusers!
Thank you to the people that help these poor creatures.
Please keep us posted!
OMG…………….I DON’T CARE WHERE U LIVE OR WHO U ARE HUMANS MUST BE RESPONSIBLE AND COMPASSIONATE TO OTHER HUMANS AND POOR INNOCENT ANIMALS. DO THE RIGHT THING AND HELP THESE POOR ANIMALS DON’T ABUSE ,TORTURE AND KILL THEM.
Please Australia tell the world that you will not tolerate these wicked retards abusing animals. Best to “lose” them In the ocean, get rid of cruel barbaric evil retards who remain like uncivilised cavemen. JUSTICE AND CARE FOR ALL ANIMALS please
Save those poor dogs, lock the scum up and deny them the same things they denied the dogs.
Shame on you. This is an horrendous act of animal abuse and neglect and those responsible must face severe punishment for this.
it’s the same scenario over and over. It seems like every country is afflicted with certain cultures that will not treat animals with any type of empathy or respect. They have none for themselves and live in a self induced stupor. Lame Governments allow for this to happen. Hope they get the plague.
People who treat animals in this way must be banned from ever keeping them again. Time for the law to do something positive about this appalling cruelty.
The land of criminals…this is a serial killer. It is a tragic sin what these “HUMANS” do.
