Rest in Peace Dr. Jane Goodall. 🕊️

With great sadness, the Jane Goodall Institute confirmed this morning the passing of the organization’s founder, Dr. Jane Goodall, age 91 who died peacefully in her sleep while in Los Angeles, CA for her speaking tour in the United States.

Dr. Goodall’s life and work not only made an indelible mark on our understanding of chimpanzees and other species, but also of humankind and the environments we all share. She inspired curiosity, hope and compassion in countless people around the world, and paved the way for many others — particularly young people who gave her hope for the future.

In 1960 Dr. Goodall established the longest running wild chimpanzee study in Gombe National Park, Tanzania which continues to this day. She pioneered and sustained the Jane Goodall Institute’s community-centered conservation initiatives across the chimpanzee range for over four decades. Her legacy includes the creation of JGI’s international environmental and humanitarian youth program Roots & Shoots, which is actively driving change in 75 countries and counting around the world.

The Jane Goodall Institute is incredibly grateful to all our supporters, partners, and friends, especially during this difficult time. To add a personal remembrance of Dr. Goodall and continue her legacy for future generations, please visit JaneGoodall.org/RememberingJane

A whopping 519 reports for animal cruelty and neglect in the Bunbury, Busselton, Harvey, Collie and Capel areas. 💔

We do however wonder if cruelty cases are under reported in more remote regional areas due to known lack of resources and other influencing factors.

Either way, we do need members of the public to continue to report anything they see and continue to report until something is done.

No excuse when there is support available. 🙅🏼

Five South West local governments have made the list for the most incidents of animal cruelty in regional WA.

A total of 7,195 cruelty reports were received, involving 9,000 animals, with 673 in the South West.

190 incidents were reported in Bunbury for the 2024-25 financial year, a 20% increase on the year before.

RSPCA chief operating officer Hannah Dreaver says the 2024-25 financial year was one of the busiest and ‘most complex’ years the animal welfare organisation has faced.

“Abuse and cruelty are still the highest number of reports we receive, followed by insufficient care and abandonment,” Ms Dreaver says.

“Looking at the numbers, you can see the South West has almost 153% more reports of animal cruelty than the other areas.

“Inspectors seized three times as many animals as the year prior [across WA] and that drove sharp increases in vet work, prosecutions and care days at RSPCA WA’s shelter.”

CRUELTY REPORTS IN REGIONAL LGAS:
1. Geraldton – 212
2. Bunbury – 190
3. Albany – 118
4. Busselton – 108
5. Kalgoorlie-Boulder – 101
6. Harvey – 79
7. Capel – 77
8. Esperance – 71
9. Collie – 65
10. Broome – 59

Moose is in urgent 🚨 need of a suitable foster home! 🏠

Desperate for Love Dog Pound Rescue

‼️MOOSE NEEDS YOUR HELP... URGENT FOSTER HOME REQUIRED‼️

Moose has lost his foster home and cannot stay in kennels. He needs a foster home NOW.

✅ Gentle, friendly, cuddly boy
✅ Knows all his basic commands
✅ Walks well on the lead
✅ Polite eater & sleeps through the night
✅ Loves being part of the family

❌ Struggles when left alone. He needs someone home more, particularly while he is settling in.
❌ Best as the only pet in the home for now! He would like to make friends, but he has manners to learn.

Moose URGENTLY needs a safe place, where he can be taken to the vet for the care he desperately requires, as he currently has blood in his urine. All vet bills are covered by DFL, he just needs your time and love.

After being found wandering the streets, Moose simply needs a committed foster to step up today, give him the chance to decompress, and help him work through the neglect he has faced. With a little time to recover, we know his beautiful personality will shine through.

Well done Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale for phasing out harmful baits to protect our native animals 🦉 and pets. 🐕

🦉We give a hoot!

The Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale is phasing out harmful SGAR rodent baits to help protect our native wildlife – like this tawny frog mouth – (and pets!). 🐀❌

We’re switching to safer options and reducing baiting where possible — because our owls and other birds or animals deserve better. 🦘🌿
