Animals Declared Sentient in Australia (sorry, that should read New Zealand)

[platy]

Don't know what planet I've been on lately but there's been nothing of it mentioned here. Are you sure it was Australia and not Australasia?
I just can't see our current government giving a crap about anything like that. Our PM refuses equality for his own sister.

Happy to be proven otherwise of course, but I can't find anything on it.
