Animal Rescue Cooperative use tape to cover up kangaroo meat.
Have ARC stopped handing out free kanagroo meat? NO THEY HAVE NOT!
Instead, ARC are using tape to cover up any kangaroo meat they handout."
For most of this year, widlife carers have been telling Animal Rescue Cooperative ARC to stop handing out free kangaroo meat to pet owners.
We have told them repeatedly about the cruelty involved in this barbaric industry.
We have told them that by handing out free kangaroo meat, they are creating demand for more kangaroo meat, which will only ensure more kangaroos are slaughtered.
Have ARC listened? Have they stopped handing out kangabroo meat? NO THEY HAVE NOT!
Instead, ARC use tape to cover up any reference to kangaroo meat on the products they handout.
Doesnt ARC care about the suffering of our kangaroos?
ARC think that promoting a kangaroo shelter, carer or sanctuary here and there will cover up what they are actually doing - promoting the barbaric slaughter of our kangaroos for pet food.
Disappointingly, it appears some kangaroo carers and shelters are prepared to look the other way when it comes to killing kangaroos for pet food, as long as they get given some cash. Kangaroo carers know how hard it is to get funding, but what does accepting funding from ARC ultimately cost?
We know ARC don't care about wildlife carers.
They have been relentlessly denigrating and bullying carers online just because they raised legitimate concerns about ARC handing out free kangaroo meat.
Heres what ARC admin posted on Facebook recently.
"...none of these activists [widlife carers] have actually done anything. They are wanting us to do it for them. They don't run a charity or an NFP, they don't even run businesses. Half of them are unemployed, no work ethic or skills, they haven't created anything that helps anyone else, their entire contribution to society is posting on facebook."
Is this how a ACNC registered charity with public donations is supposed to behave?
It was very sad day for our wildlife when WIRES partnered with ARC. This arrangement has done little to help our wildlife and has placed many good kangaroo carers in a difficult position.
