Mechanised Sheep Handling Devices - URGENT ACTION
Every year, millions of sheep are handled using mechanised systems that can compress, suspend, rotate, and invert animals, yet there is currently no clear national welfare framework specifically assessing or regulating these devices.
Sheep Advocate Australia has formally called on Federal and State Agriculture Ministers to launch an independent national review into these machines and address what appears to be a significant gap in Australia's animal welfare system.
By sending this letter, you are asking decision-makers to investigate whether these devices are safe, scientifically validated, and operating within an appropriate welfare framework.

Animals cannot write to politicians. We can.
