This could happen anywhere in Australia:
Biodiversity conservation going to the dogsSomewhere in crowded suburbia is a small creek with a bit of bush left behind by accident. It is a refuge for swamp wallabies, blue wrens and many other species of the biodiversity kin.
‘User groups’, that is locals and their dogs demand that the last bit of green is for their ‘recreation’ and not Australian flora and fauna. Pet owners allow that their roaming dogs destroy the last small fragmented refuges where native wildlife can survive.
Recently a council voted to fence dogs out of the park "to manage the growing dog population in the municipality." There are “problems with dog behaviour…They (swamp wallabies) are threatened and chased and killed by dogs.”
Anger and vandalism followed. Local pet owners demand to "make the park off-leash for dogs.” The dispute requires 'conflict experts’ from outside to get involved.
In a place where everything is 'dog friendly’ and where half of Australian households own at least one dog, they implicitly ‘voted with their paws’ to be 'wildlife unfriendly'.

Proudhon said property is theft, but Claude tells me that property is violence.
Which one is correct? Why not both?

Heat-affected wildlife on a burning planet
"When our animals are heat-stressed, they are also severely compromised, so we see a spike in other issues as well, like vehicle collisions, entanglements and injuries."

Somewhere there are changing attitudes - they are removing barbed wire fencing
" Man removes 18km of barbed wire fencing from Victorian property to save wildlife. According to Entangled Wildlife Australia, 80 per cent of barbed wire entanglements occur on the top strand. Across Australia, there is a growing push to ban the use of barbed wire for property boundaries. Changing attitudes and behaviour are key if we are to create a safer environment for our wildlife."

Never tear down a fence until you know why it was raised.
-- Robert Frost -
Shiny new barbed wire fences are going up around the Bellingen and Gleniffer area:
"Barbed wire is a hidden killer of Aussie wildlife. Gliders, bats, owls and wallabies die tangled every year. Researchers have long documented sugar and squirrel gliders caught on barbed wire in roadside vegetation...Replacing barbed wire with plain fencing is a quick win for nature. It’s simple, cheap, lifesaving."

#Stand back, bewildering #Politics!
I've placed my #Fences round;
Pass on, with all your #Party tricks,
Nor tread my holy #Ground!Stand back - I'm #Weary of your #Talk,
Your #Squabbles, and your bate:
You cannot enter in this #Walk ;
I've closed my #Garden #Gate.- Charles Mackay, #Scottish #Poet, #Writer, and #Songwriter
