I don't know. Maybe it's just as you said but too often stories like that are click bait.

No. Read the entire article, all the way to the end. They were NOT restricted.

Maybe we should focus on the common mistreatment of ALL animals in our OWN country before castigating another country over one reported incident?

I mean, are we really going to pretend that this kind of thing wouldn't, or doesn't, happen in the US?

You can do both. There’s plenty of outrage to be had every time a story like this comes up. Nobody needs to limit their conversation on the matter.

Just another reason to avoid tourist travel there including the 2032 Olympics in Brisbane.

Yet.

The woke panicked leftists aren't through with the pandemic, not by a long shot. They have much left to accomplish.

It's how they normally put down stray dogs. I mean, seems shocking that that's usually how they do it to an American or apparently Australians from Sydney. The Outback is the Outback though. 16,000 square miles with 2,600 people. Apparently they've got more people that know how to euthanize with a gun than euthanize with shots so that's just how they do things out in the Outback.
