Save the foxes Australia

allow rescueing and rehomeing of foxes in Australia. Australian foxes deserve better. They are not pests. They are not vermin. They are not invasive. They are here now, they are not going away and we need to find compassionate, humane ways to coexist with these incredible animals who are here in our country through no fault of their own. Foxes are running out of time and they need your help. Oppose the Pest Control Order and the ban on private ownership of foxes. Allow the continued rescue and rehoming of orphaned and injured foxes in need. SAY NO TO THE PCO. Foxes are running out of time and they need your help. Oppose the Pest Control Order (PCO) and the ban on private ownership of foxes. Allow the continued rescue and rehoming of orphaned and injured foxes in need.What the PCO means for foxes:

Rescuing foxes is now illegal
Rehoming foxes is now illegal
Foxes in need are unable to legally access vet care
Transporting foxes (even for veterinary care) is illegal
All foxes who are orphaned and injured are now meant to be euthanised. Every year thousands of foxes are left orphaned by widespread 1080 baiting and other fox control methods. Under the PCO the control of adult foxes will now be compulsory for all landowners, leaving an increased number of orphaned fox kits. With no legal means to rescue and assist these orphans under the PCO many will be left to starve, unable to hunt for themselves. Without a legal means of fox ownership, and fox kits continuing to be found, the illegal, covert ownership of foxes is inevitable. In Victoria, where foxes are currently illegal to own in captivity individuals are routinely found with pet foxes in spite of the legislation.
