Cat management
There's currently a lot of discussion about how to effectively manage cats in Australia, for many reasons including safeguarding our native wildlife, and also to ensure cats are kept safe and responsibly cared for. A big part of the conversation is how to manage 'stray' or unowned domestic cats. Often misunderstood, stray cats are a relatively small group compared to owned cats or feral cats, they are an important part of the issue as they may interact with both groups with potential risk of unplanned litters or spread of diseases, and for the unowned cats themselves the w...

Animals used in research
"Just the mere act of housing animals in a laboratory environment has negative welfare impacts, so whatever happens to these animals as part of a study adds to this stress and suffering."Every day across Australia millions of animals of all species are used for research including mice, rats, fish, reptiles, rabbits, cats, dogs, farmed animals and monkeys.

Animals caught in domestic violence
Domestic violence is a significant issue in Australia, with recent reports stating 1 in 4 women and 1 in 8 men have experienced violence by an intimate partner or family member. And as nearly 70% of households in Australia have pets as part of their families, animals are often the forgotten victims in domestic violence situations. In fact, many victim-survivors may stay in a harmful relationship out of fear of what would happen to their animal if they left, or because they don't know where to turn for assistance.In this week’s episode, our host Brian Daly joins Ann-Margaret Wit...

The RSPCA - after 200 years
As the oldest animal welfare society in the world, the RSPCA is synonymous with campaigning against cruelty to animals. Founded in 1824 by William Wilberforce and others who had brought about the end of the slave trade, the RSPCA soon became supported by the great and the good, with Queen Victoria its patron. Two hundred years later, we celebrate the RSPCA's achievement in putting cruelty at the heart of the nation's concerns, but we also ask about the challenges ahead. The intensive farming of animals is widely condemned, and the RSPCA's approach is to support 'welfare' schemes that...

Senator Malcolm Roberts calls for the RSPCA to be de-registered as a charity.
In this podcast two guests join us to a discuss our modern-day RSPCA. What might surprise you is that this isn’t a heart-warming story. The Royal Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, known as the RSPCA, dates to 1871 when a public meeting was held in Victoria in response to the ill treatment of horses. The QLD RSPCA was formed in 1883. The RSPCA is a household name and many consider it a beacon of respect and care for animals. Today, the RSPCA has capitalised on its branding of animal welfare with producers and brand...

10. In case of fire (part 2) - Koala Hospital
Koalas are sadly one of the most seriously affected animals in the case of a bushfire. Werribee Open Range Zoo cared for more than 20 injured koalas during the 2020 bushfires. Now, the Zoo will be building a purpose-built koala hospital. This will be a facility dedicated to helping koalas and other animals recover from injuries related to bushfires. The hospital is being built using funds from the RSPCA's bushfire appeal fund, with additional funding from Zoos Victoria. This proud partnership will help countless animals recover and return to the wild. Hosted by Alexandra Keefe.

Leisha’s passion for animal welfare started at young age and was born from the empathy for animals her mother taught her to have.

Having opted to study meat science, Leisha was led down the path of researching animal welfare during slaughter.
