Help the grey-headed flying fox

Even though grey-headed flying foxes are faced with the real threat of extinction, the NSW government continues to issue permits to shoot them.

NSW is currently the only state where this practice is still legal.

Many of those killed are breeding females who are often left wounded to die a slow and painful death. They leave behind orphaned young, who then die from hunger and and thirst.

Queensland has banned the shooting of flying foxes for crop protection on the grounds that it is both cruel and ineffective. Its time NSW did the same.

We need to end the legalised killing of this native species.

We're asking the NSW Government to stop issuing licences to shoot flying foxes when the law is reviewed.
