About Keep The Sheep Here
Keep the Sheep Here is a joint campaign supporting the Australian live sheep export ban and advocates for alternatives that improve sheep welfare and keep jobs in Australia. We represent the majority of Australians who think the live sheep export trade is cruel and needs to end.
Stop Live Exports is a community-led, incorporated, not-for-profit organisation formed in the mid-1990s in Fremantle, Western Australia.
We want to see the live animal export trade replaced with a progressive and ethical alternative that looks after producers and their farm animals too.
Our supporters come from all walks of life including professionals, tradies, kids, grandparents, meat-eaters, non-meat-eaters, city slickers, country dwellers and everyone in between.
The Australian Alliance for Animals is a national charity leading a strategic alliance of Australia’s key animal protection organisations to create systemic change for animals.
Our aim is to create an independent animal welfare policy system that works for animals, not against them. Through our programs we lead sector-wide support for crucial reforms, hold decision-makers to account, and bring our members and allies together to strengthen the representation of animals.
Over 20 years, Animal Australia’s investigations have revealed the inherent suffering of animals subjected to the live sheep export trade.
While evidence obtained has prompted some regulatory reform, Animals Australia has lodged over 70 extensive legal complaints to the Commonwealth regulator exposing the unwillingness of exporters to follow the rules, and fortifying the political case for the trade to end.
