Sydney Ideas

This special Sydney Ideas conversation marks the 10th Annual Robert Dixon Memorial Animal Welfare Symposium and explores a series of critical questions regarding companion, performance and wild animals. Considering we don't euthanise humans, how do we navigate through the ethics of conduct in this space and the potential conflicts of interest? Our panel discuss factors that influence end-of-life decisions. FEAUTURING – Dr Larry Vogelnest - Senior Veterinarian, Taronga Conservation Society – Dr Martin F.
