Rejected petition License all wildlife rescue centres regardless of charity status.

To license, regulate and inspect all wildlife rescue centres regardless of whether they are a charity or not.

More details

Wildlife rescue centres are completely unregulated and often cause unnecessary suffering, charity status seems to fool the public into thinking they must be ok because they are a ‘charity’
Often these places lack proper housing, cause unnecessary suffering and keep wildlife as prized trophies, using them to drum up donations.
They should be regulated under the AAL, at the moment anyone can call themselves a wildlife rescue centre and operating completely under the radar.
