Man on cruelty charge after shooting dog to save wallaby | Courier Mail
I apologise if this has been posted before - but I'm not using my laptop and for some reason I can't display new threads like I did on my now stolen laptop.
But how amazing is this story - how can this fellow be charged for animal cruelty, the owner of the dog should be charged! This is the kind of justice that continually gets served in this country - the criminals get off scot free!
I don't know if this story is media sensationalisation - maybe it is - but it does seem pretty sad that this guy is going to get charged!!!
"A MISSION Beach man has been charged with animal cruelty after he shot a dog which was allegedly attacking a wallaby on his property.
The 58-year-old was charged by police after shooting the dog in the leg at his Dargin Rd property on Saturday afternoon.
He told police the dog, which belonged to a neighbour, had been chasing a wallaby when he was forced to intervene. The dog survived the ordeal after a short vet stay.
The man is due to appear in Tully Magistrates Court on April 21."
Ludicrous I say! Ludicrous!!
