...Rural reporter * From:The Australian * May 29, 201312:00AM NORTH Queensland pastoralists will today appeal personally to Wayne Swan to authorise the purchase of 100,000 drought-stricken cattle to save the starving stock from being shot. Cattleman Barry Hughes said that if Canberra spent $150 million buying cattle -- which it could fatten and slaughter as overseas aid -- it would save Queensland communities, graziers and their stock from a growing crisis. It is estimated there are 500,000 cattle in north and western Queensland that are in too poor a condition to be sold or trucked to a meatworks or feedlot. Mr Hughes, who is leading a delegation to Canberra, will also ask Environment Minister Tony Burke to approve the opening of more national parks to grazing. The meetings with the Treasurer, Agriculture Minister Joe Ludwig, Trade Minister Craig Emerson, Resources Minister Gary Gray and Tony Abbott coincide with a warning from live exporters and cattlemen that new trade concessions from Indonesia will make little difference. Dr Emerson claimed yesterday that the lifting by Indonesia of all import quotas on premium processed beef from Australia until the end of the year, and the acceleration of its imports of live cattle, would benefit drought-hit farmers. The moves will allow an extra 17,000 cattle to be shipped live from ports such as Darwin, Karumba and Wyndham from next month. Queensland Agriculture Minister John McVeigh said the decision was a "step in the eright...

...The charity i chose is rscpca. when and where did it start? The RSPCA’s dates all the way back to 1871, when a public meeting to discuss the treatment of I'll horses in Victoria ended up forming into Australia’s first Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. After the establishment in Victoria soon followed the other states: Tasmania in 1872; New South Wales in 1873; South Australia in 1875; Queensland in 1883; Northern territory 1955 and Western Australia in 1892.

The RSPCA is an australian community based charity that works to prevent cruelty to animals by actively promoting their care and protection. The RSPCA not only shelters and takes care of animals they also pick up strays or missing animals on the streets and take them back in to protection untill someone picks them up. This has happened to my dog many times an withought the RSPCA It probably would have been hit by a car or lost. So I'm very thankful for the RSPCA. Why for the RSPCA deserve people time and money more than other charities? The RSPCA deserves people time and money the most because people don't realise how badly animals are being treated and how unfair most of there lives are. the RSPCA is doing there best to save as many of these as they can, with our helping hand we can together...

About sixty-eight percent of Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders live in the urban area of Australia like Queensland and New South Wales. Rest of the population resides in the remote areas of Australia. The recent surveys show that the population of aborigines and Torres Strait Islander are having a serious health issue of increasing mental illness (Busfield, 2012). Also, the rate of suicide is getting high amongst them. These people have a traditional view towards their health; they don’t just associate it with a person, but with the whole community and spiritual, social and emotional well-being of the whole community. The Australian Government and the health department are working hard to overcome the problem of mental disorder and high rate of suicide amongst the Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders (Whitlock, Wyman & Moore, 2014). Factors that are associated with mental disorder and suicide When a person is socially and emotionally unwell, and there is a remarkable change of behavior and thinking it is known as mental illness.

...The Stolen Generations The term “Stolen Generations” is used for the Children of Australian aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, most of the children were under 5 years old, who were taken from their parents by the Australian government and Church. They were separated from their parents and lived in dormitories or with foster parents. It is referred to “stolen generations” because it happened for many decades and several generations were affected. It is believed that these forcibly removals happened from around 1900s until 1970s. Approximately 100.000 children were stolen during that time. They had less contact with their parents or even didn’t know whether their parents were still alive or not. Nowadays, many of them are still searching for their families. There were many reasons to justify the Australian government actions includes to give them better living conditions because their aboriginal parents would only neglect them, to convert their beliefs into Christian by moving them from the cultural influence of indigenous people and to give them better education. However, the truth is, there was an assimilation policy that aboriginal people would die out if they have children with white Australians for generations and a fear of miscegenation by full-blooded aboriginal people. The term “Stolen Generations” is used for the Children of Australian aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, most of the children were under 5 years old, who were taken from their parents by the Australian...

Their habitat ties are environments that include open areas, brush areas, rock outcroppings and forests. (c) Food: Wallabies are herbivores. Their diet is mainly made out of grasses, shrubs, and bushes. Wallabies have large jaw room and large teeth which makes it easier for them to chew their food. Bennett’s wallabies are mainly nocturnal which means that they eat during the night. During the day they rest so that they could have enough energy at night. (d) Population: There are a lot of different species in the same genera. Some examples are the Tamar wallaby and the swamp wallaby. Similarities between these animals are that they belong in the same family and both live in Australia.

...The steps I would take to understand Aboriginal culture is to go back and do some reading on the stolen generation, massacres, loss of their land and try to understand how Mel would feel meeting with me as a white person and how I could make him feel comfortable to open up to me during our sessions. I would try to understand the link between alcohol abuse and offending and the impact it has on the Aboriginal people by looking up as to why the statistics are so high with alcohol abuse. By understanding that alcohol abuse, racism, loss of land and traditional culture, home life, poverty could be the causes as to why Aboriginal Males are in jail. I would need to be careful about how I approach and talk with Mel about his home life and his alcohol abuse as I wouldn’t want to come across as offending his culture and the way they do things. I would build a good connection with my client Mel by talking about his family and show him that I am interested in his background and a little bit about what his family have been through, I would make it clear that I am here to help him through these tough times and that he can be completely honest with me as I will not take offences nor will I take away his trust. While he is talking to me about his family and their background I would try and put myself in his shoes by thinking what if that was my family that had been through all of this, what if I was taken away from my parents or what if my family got everything taken away from them and had nothing...

... Katie Peterson Mrs.Finkenbinder 4th period LA 3 May 2017 KOALA 101 !!!!!! When you think of koalas you probably think of cute cuddly furry animals. But along with that koalas are also intelligent,complex, and very amazing creatures. I will talk about how koalas have many interesting traits like they sleep for 18 hours a day,they only have a 30-36 gestation period and there children,they live over 20 years and also how their population in decreasing Koalas sleep for 16-18 hours a day they are most active around the afternoon. They spend all this time sleeping because they don't have much energy from the food they eat. They eat around 20 lbs of eucalyptus leaves a day in fact that's where 97% of their water comes from. Though that sound like a lot of food eucalyptus leaves are not calorically dense so they eat a lot to try to get enough calories. Koalas are marsupials, which means they carry their babies in a pouch. Unlike most marsupials and mammals in general, they have a 30-36 gestation period. That's only a little over a month! After their baby is born it stays with their mother for 6-8 months.During this period most of the time is spent in the pouch with the mother. Koalas live in australia. Its temperatures are perfect for the koalas and the tropical environment with plenty of eucalyptus trees provide them with enough food and shelter. Sadly though a lot of the forests that koalas live in are being burned,chopped and ransacked in order to provide land for...

...Introduction Aboriginal people have a long history of traditions, but many of these traditions were altered or even taken away from them. Aboriginal people are victimized and incarcerated at much higher rates than non-Aboriginal people; this overrepresentation of Aboriginal people continues to pose challenges to policies of justice system. Aboriginal people are more likely to be denied bail, they are more likely not to have legal representation in court proceedings, and Aboriginal offenders are more than twice as likely to be incarcerated than non-Aboriginal offenders. This research will focus on victimization rates for various incidents among Aboriginal women compare to non-Aboriginal women. This research will look into differentiating between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal women's experiences of victimization, using quantitative methods, to better understand the extent of violence against Aboriginal women and the context in which it occurs. The research also looks at previous articles and studies done on Aboriginal women, on their victimization and their representation in news media. Articles, such as 'Newsworthy' Victims? By Gilchrist, K. (2010) looks at the representation of Aboriginal women in new media and compare to non-Aboriginal women and the distinction between "innocent" and "immoral" women. The government system has taken steps to help reduce Aboriginal peoples victimization and offending. There objective is to decrease the rates of victimization, crime and incarceration...
