The Reality Reports

The Announcement That Drew Global Attention: In 2015, the Australian government announced a large-scale plan to reduce the country’s feral cat population. Officials stated that up to two million cats would be killed over five years. The policy quickly gained international attention. While some supported the move, others criticized it, especially animal welfare groups and cat advocates.

The Great Emu War: Australia's Battle Against 20,000 Birds: In 1932, Australia faced an unusual enemy that would embarrass its military. After World War I ended, the Australian government gave land to war veterans in Western Australia so they could farm wheat.  However, the Great Depression caused wheat prices to drop significantly, making it hard for farmers to earn money. Then thousands of emus migrated to these farming areas and started eating the crops. The farmers needed help, but they never expected the government to send in the army.
