Horses vs. Nature: Australia's Parliamentary Shift
Update: 2025-12-14
Description
The New South Wales Parliaments decision to repeal the Kosciuszko Wild Horse Heritage Act marks a significant shift in managing feral horses in Kosciuszko National Park. Despite initial opposition, environmental groups express gratitude towards former Deputy Premier John Barilaro for sparking a powerful movement against the act. The law, which protected feral horses over native wildlife and ecosystems, exposed weaknesses in the protection argument and led to a cross-party effort to address the ecological damage. The repeal of the act leaves Australia in a stronger position for environmental policy, offering hope for future battles and demonstrating the power of collective action across political lines.
