Thanks to everyone for their support thus far, together we have a real chance to stop this before it starts. 

After Labor resoundingly won the WA state election, Premier Mark McGowan has reshuffled his cabinet. Minster Tinley who was "broadly supportive" of this proposal to intentionally reduce shark populations in the North West, is no longer the Fisheries Minister. The new Minister for that portfolio is Don Punch. 

Hopefully, Minister Punch sees how irresponsible and dangerous this program would be and swiftly pulls the pin on this proposal. PLEASE keep sharing this petition as we need a whole new wave of support, to send a message to the new Minister loud and clear, that this is not OK. 

For those who aren't aware, we are also running a campaign against the 83 year long shark cull in Australia's eastern states. You can support it here

Thank you!
