Saving the lives of wombats and other species is a matter of great importance, and it&#39;s heartbreaking to see them being injured or killed by vehicles in National Park. The fact that the sealed road has encouraged dangerous driving is unacceptable, and it&#39;s crucial that we take action to prevent this.<br> <br> Effective traffic calming measures, such as speed humps and chicanes, can significantly reduce the risk of accidents and near-misses. These measures have been proven to reduce vehicle speeds and improve safety in residential and commercial areas .By installing these measures, we can create a safer environment for the wildlife.<br> <br> Increased compliance checks and police patrols, especially during peak holiday seasons, can also help deter reckless driving. It&#39;s essential that we support the NSW National Parks &amp; Wildlife Service (NPWS) in their efforts to protect the Australian wildlife and to ensure their safety .<br> <br> The work of John Creighton and Wombat Care Bundanoon is truly inspiring, and it&#39;s a testament to the dedication and compassion of individuals who care deeply about our native animals. By supporting this petition, we can make a real difference in the lives of wombats and other species that call National Park home.<br> <br> Let&#39;s join forces to demand action from the NSW Minister for the Environment and ensure that the National Park is a safe haven for wildlife. Together, we can create a better future for our amazing native animals.

I love walking with dogs off leash but it is the wombats who must be considered. Their lives should not be put in danger so that dogs and people can have fun. It is their home and that must be respected.

All animals are important to the environment.<br> The amount killed on Tasmania roads is horrific. <br> We chose to live in their environment, they did not choose to live in ours. <br> Speeds to be reduced between the hours of dawn and dusk, or at any time.
Laurene supported: Reduce Speed Limit on East Bagdad Road for Safety and Wildlife Protection
We’ve forgotten we live on their land that we’ve taken for our homes, businesses and roads. We need to do more to keep them safe.

These endless horror deaths of our wildlife on our roads are so emotionally traumatizing. Something has to be done to reduce or stop the road kill. There are ways to minimize these deaths. Please act now,

As a local wildlife carer I witness first hand the carnage caused on Wellington road..it is wildlife carers that are left to care for raise, rehabilitate and release the orphaned babies left behind when their mothers are killed..thankyou to all the wonderful wildlife rescuers like Lea out there 💜

It’s about protecting wildlife so our children’s children can still see them.

I am a local Wildlife Rescuer and recently attended a pouch check on Wellington Road. Thankfully, it was a male kangaroo but both legs had been completely broken. It’s head was crushed and its tail had been degloved during the presumably heavy vehicle strike. I had to try and move this poor kangaroo further to the side of the road on a busy Saturday. There needs to be more done to alert motorists and protect the wildlife along this extremely busy road.

It is not just Wellington Road, the carnage of our native wildlife is happening throughout the country. We humans have to put aside our own selfish interests (it&#39;ll cost $s, it means driving slower for brief periods) and take proven action to reduce the terrible suffering and decimation of these animals. I have driven Wellington Road for decades, and with its increased traffic and the area&#39;s urbanisation has been a huge visible increase in the destruction of wildlife. The animals suffer horrible painful deaths. It is callous of us to allow it continue while we have the means and knowledge to act. It is do-able.
