Recently, the Australian government proposed a "24-hour cat ban", which means that in the future, Australian cat slaves may have to keep their cats in the house for a long time.
The proposal, proposed by Gregory Andrews, Australia's first Endangered Species Commissioner, aims to protect native animals that are endangered by cat attacks. Andrews said the government would seek public support for "a 24-hour lockdown of domestic cats, especially those close to areas that have been identified as key protections."
The measure has already been implemented in some jurisdictions or will be extended to all of Australia. Australia is currently facing a cat crisis, and the government is struggling to cope with the huge number of cats.
Cats were brought to Australia by European immigrants 200 years ago and quickly spread across the continent as well as New Zealand after breeding in large numbers. Some estimate that there are about 20 million cats in Australia, and they kill about 75 million native animals every day.
The Australian government has also put forward a "slaughter of pet cats" proposal to slaughter 2 million cats to protect other species. The proposal was controversial and condemned by animal rights activists. French actress Brigitte Bardot said last week that Australia was "stained with the blood of millions of innocent animals." ”
