Join us today as we sit down with the Honorable Mr. Mark Pearson, MLC (member of the New South Wales Legislative Council), he is a member of The Animal Justice Party (the only political party in Australia dedicated to protecting all animals).

From the unregulated inhumane kangaroo slaughter decimating their populations to dog racing, Mr. Pearson shares with us what is being done to combat poor and the lack thereof animal welfare in Australia. We cannot thank Mr. Pearson enough for not only his time and knowledge but also for his dedication to animal welfare.

Join us today as we talk with the one and only Dr. Chris Lowe from the Cal State Long Beach, Shark Lab!
