Farming – Animal Justice Party

http://animaljusticeparty.org/policies/farming

Farming and food choices are intimately connected and so are the corresponding AJP policies. We advocate a plant based diet but recognise that animal industries are not all the same. It is the aim of our dietary policy. However, whilst the Animal Justice Party will advocate for incomplete reform when the immediate suffering of animals is involved, it will always recognise that such reforms are not enough in isolation and must occur in tandem with a long-term, total transition to plant-based agriculture.

A substantial proportion of existing animal species. To rapidly transform to a carbon free energy infrastructure. To prohibit any fossil fuel expansion. Direct carbon taxes into c...

Koalas – Animal Justice Party

http://animaljusticeparty.org/policies/koalas

Introduced Animals – Animal Justice Party

http://animaljusticeparty.org/policies/introduced-animals

This policy concerns free living introduced species, such as camels, rabbits, cats and foxes, and doesn’t deal with exotic species currently found in pet shops; these are dealt with in our companion animals policy. The AJP supports the humane and non-lethal treatment of all animals regardless of where their species originated. We will support and develop programs that are in-line with this position and focus on restoring eco-systems via methods harmonious to nature such a rewilding. AJP Independent Offic...

It’s embarrassing for Australia that we eat our wildlife. I’m here to tell you it’s not right simply do not buy, use or eat kangaroo products.’. 8212; Steve Irwin. Legislation that protects kangaroos, wallabies and other macropods is urgently required. We must work to counter the misinformation from those with commercial interests so that kangaroos are valued for their intrinsic worth.

Brumbies – Animal Justice Party

http://animaljusticeparty.org/policies/brumbies

A brumby is a wild horse. Early white arrivals bought horses and there have been wild populations in many parts of Australia ever since. The role of these horses in history, both during war and peace, has given them a special place in many Australian hearts. But their rights are equal to any other introduced animals and are covered in our Introduced Animals policy. Where environmental degredation from brumbies is demonstrated then non-lethal control measures should be implemented if proven necessary.
