VOICES for change

“I firmly believe that anyone who supports live animal export can never justify calling themselves an animal lover. Animal lovers want animal welfare to always be a top priority, and from sharing my lives with sheep, I have no doubt that there is no room for animal welfare in the trucking and shipping of these gentle, sentient creatures.”

Carole-Anne Priest

“Despite my familial connection to the industry, I am deeply appalled by the conditions in which sheep are transported and slaughtered, and believe that we, as a society, should be striving for better treatment of animals.”

“If people saw the constant and ongoing suffering that I see, the injuries, the blood, the sheep that are trampled on as they are offloaded, the majority of Australians would want live export banned immediately. Once and for all. "
