Tasmania becomes the first Australian state to ban battery cages for hens. Hopefully the remaining sates including my home state of NSW will catch on soon.
Its interesting how different areas except change quicker than others. For example Austria was the first country to enforce tougher anti-cruelty laws across all areas including caged chickens, chopping of puppy tails and the sale of them in shop windows with cruelty now resulting in fines of up to 24000 dollars!
With such events occurring world wide I believe it necessary to touch on such issues within my publication as a reflection of societal change
