Londoloza izinja ekuminzeni. Yiba nezwi lakho ngemithetho ehlongozwayo.
I-Ministry for Primary Industries manje ifuna impendulo yomphakathi mayelana nemithetho ehlongozwayo mayelana nochungechunge lwezinja.
Ngamafuphi, ngicela ukuthi wenze isethulo futhi unxuse ukuthi noma yisiphi isilwane akufanele siboshwe lapho sisengozini yokulimala ngenxa yesimo sezulu esibi kakhulu noma isimo esiphuthumayo. Kunezinye izizathu eziningi ezizwakalayo zokuthi kungani ukubopha izinja kube nemiphumela emibi yenhlalakahle yezilwane, kodwa kunezinhlangano eziningi ezinhle ezifana ne-SAFE ezigqugquzela ushintsho ngalezo zizathu. Ukugxila kwami kuzungeze umthetho wezinhlekelele zezilwane nokuthi singalithuthukisa kanjani igama lethu lenhlalakahle yezilwane emhlabeni wonke elonakele. Funda kabanzi mayelana nemithethonqubo ehlongozwayo lapha.
Njengoba izikhukhula zakamuva zicekela phansi iNew Zealand, izilwane nazo ziye zathinteka. Kalula nje, izilwane eziboshwe ngamaketanga azikwazi ukuzivikela ezikhukhuleni futhi isinqumo somuntu sokuzinqanda sinomthelela ekuzenzeni zibe sengozini enkulu ezingozini ezinjalo nokuminza.. Izinhlekelele azizona zemvelo, ziyinqubo yezenzakalo ezibangelwa izinqumo zomuntu.
I-Texas yafunda kabuhlungu, kodwa yaba nesibindi sokuphasisa umthetho othize okwenze kwaba icala ukubophela inja lapho ingaba sengozini yezehlakalo zesimo sezulu esibi kakhulu. Lo mthetho wokwenza kahle kakhulu, wabe usuvunywa uMkhandlu Wesifunda saseKapiti Coast kulandela ukwethulwa kwe-Animal Evac New Zealand ekubuyekezeni kwabo imithetho kamasipala yokulawulwa kwezinja futhi baba umkhandlu wendawo wokuqala wesifunda ukuphasisa umthetho kamasipala wokulawulwa kwezinhlekelele zezilwane (ngaphansi Umthetho kaMasipala Wokulawulwa Kwezinja woMkhandlu Wesifunda saseKapiti Coast) ngo-2019.
Isigaba somthetho 7.1 (e): “Kumele kuthathwe izinyathelo zokwenza izinja zifudumale lapho kubanda, kupholile uma kufudumele, uphephile esimweni sezulu esibi kakhulu noma ngesikhathi esiphuthumayo sokuvikela umphakathi”
Muva nje, i-Texas iphumelele i- I-Safe Outdoor Dog Act okuholela ekulawuleni okuqinile mayelana nokusetshenziswa njengemodemu kwezinja kanye nezijeziso ezinzima.
Ngo-2005, iMelika yahlaselwa yiSiphepho uKatrina. Inhlekelele yemvelo eyabulala kakhulu emlandweni wabo ngaleso sikhathi. Kwafa abantu abangaphezu kuka-1,800 44 kuleyo nhlekelele, izigidi zezilwane nazo zabhubha. U-XNUMX% walabo abahlulekile ukuthutha bakwenze lokhu ngokwengxenye ngoba bengakwazi ukuthatha izilwane zabo ezifuywayo. Ngaleso sikhathi, inqubomgomo kahulumeni kwakuwukushiya izilwane ezifuywayo. Kungakapheli unyaka kwenzeke le nhlekelele, uhulumeni wase-US eqaphela ukuxhumana okukhona phakathi kwabantu nezilwane, waphasisa uMthetho Wezimo Eziphuthumayo Nezokuthutha Wangowezi-2006.
INew Zealand yenze umzamo omncane wokufunda emaphutheni amakhulu e-USA. Uhulumeni wase-US wagunyaza ukuxhasa ngemali, ukuhlela kanye nekhono lokulawulwa kwezinhlekelele zezilwane. Ngokuphambene, i-New Zealand namanje ayinikezi umthwalo wemfanelo wezinhlelo zokulawulwa kwezimo eziphuthumayo zezilwane, yehluleka ukuhlinzeka ngembuyiselo yezindleko zokusabela ezitholwa izinhlangano ezisiza umphakathi, futhi imithetho iyaqhubeka nokwehluleka ukuqaphela ngokwanele izilwane zidinga ukuvikelwa ezinhlekeleleni. Ngo-2010, ngaphothula iziqu zami zeMasters in Emergency Management futhi ngenza izincomo kuhulumeni kuhlanganise ne-MPI kanye Nomnyango Wezokuvikela Nokuphathwa Kwezimo Eziphuthumayo (manje i-NEMA), ngiphawula ukushiyeka okukhulu ezinhlelweni zethu zokuvikela izilwane enhlekeleleni. Akukho kwe Izincomo ze-60 sesenziwe. Ngisho nesethulo ngasibhala ngo-2017, njenge-CEO ye-Wellington SPCA ku- Ukubuyekezwa Kongqongqoshe Kwezokuvikela Umphakathi, yehlulekile ukudala ushintsho naphezu kwephesenti eliphawulekayo leziphakamiso zomphakathi ezisekela isimemezelo sokuthuthukiswa komthetho nezinhlekelele zezilwane.
Eminyakeni eyisikhombisa kamuva, i- Izikhukhula zase-Edgecumbe zahlasela futhi izilwane ezingaphezu kuka-1,000 basala edolobheni kanti abezicishamlilo bangabe besangena ngoba kwase kusele abantu edolobheni. Izilwane eziningi zafa kungenasidingo. Ukube bekungengenxa yemizamo emikhulu yamavolontiya okusindisa izilwane, ngabe abaningi bafa. Enye indaba ngeyowesifazane owayefuna ukubuya ezohlenga ihhashi lakhe enqatshelwe ukungena entanjeni. Ngenxa yalokho, wabhukuda ewela umfula uRangitāiki ogcwele izintambo nezintambo zokuhlenga amahhashi akhe. Kalula nje, ukusindisa izilwane ezinhlekeleleni kusindisa ukuphila kwabantu. Impela, izazi eziphambili kule ndawo ziye zathi “Ubunikazi bezilwane kuyisici esisodwa esivame kakhulu esihlobene nokwehluleka ukuphuma kwabantu okungathinteka kahle lapho usongo lwenhlekelele luseduze.”. Ucwaningo luphinde lwathola ukuthi umthelela wokuphila wokulahlekelwa kwezilwane ezifuywayo ungaba buhlungu njengokulahlekelwa ikhaya noma elinye ilungu lomndeni.
Njengoba i-US iphasisa omunye umthetho wombuso wokuthuthukisa inhlalakahle yezilwane ezinhlekeleleni ngokudlula kwe Umthetho Wokuhlelela Impilo Yezilwane (PAW)., egunyaza i-FEMA (okulingana ne-US NEMA) ukuthi ihole ekuthuthukisweni ezindaweni eziningi, i-New Zealand ayizange yenze noma yimuphi umzamo wokwethula imithetho eyisisekelo yezinhlekelele zezilwane naphezu kwango-2019, a umbiko wethulwa nguGareth Hughes MP kanye noCraig Fugate owayenguMphathi we-FEMA ngesikhathi sokushintshwa kweSiphepho uKatrina. UMqondisi Wezokuvikela ngaleso sikhathi waphawula umbiko njenge “umsebenzi ofanele ophakamisa izinto eziningi ezibalulekile okufanele zibhekwe” kanye “nezindaba eziphakanyiswe embikweni oqondene nalo mthethonqubo (uHlelo lukaZwelonke lwe-CDEM) zizocatshangelwa lapho kubuyekezwa khona”.
I-New Zealand iyizilwane ezihlulekayo futhi ayiseyona ehamba phambili emhlabeni wonke ngenhlalakahle yezilwane.
Akuvamile, ukuthi kuhlongozwe umthetho othize wezinja ngaphansi koMthetho Wezenhlalakahle Yezilwane, hhayi uMthetho Wokulawulwa Kwezinja ka-1996. Ngokwenza kanjalo, kuzobeka esinye isidingo ezinhlanganweni ezisiza umphakathi ezifana ne-SPCA ukuthi ziphoqelele imithetho yephalamende naphezu kokulawulwa kwezinja. ixhaswe njengomsebenzi obalulekile womkhandlu ngemali yokubhaliswa kwezinja. Kukhona iphuzu elincane lokwethula omunye umthetho, lapho umsebenzi wokuthobelana ungenazo izinsiza ezanele ezilungiselelweni ezikhona.
Uma lo mthethonqubo ohlongozwayo uhlala ngaphansi koMthetho Wenhlalakahle Yezilwane 1999, akufanele ugxile ezinhlobonhlobo zezilwane - noma yisiphi isilwane esizwelayo esiboshwe ngamaketanga sisengozini elinganayo futhi kufanele sinikezwe ukuvikelwa okufanayo okusemthethweni. Uma umthetho uzoqondana nezinja, kuzomele kwenziwe isigatshana esikwenza kube yicala futhi ngaphansi koMthetho Wokulawulwa Kwezinja we-1996 ukuvumela ukuphoqelelwa kokulawulwa kwezilwane kukahulumeni wendawo. Lokhu kuzophinde kusho ukuthi uMkhandlu Wesifunda saseKapiti Coast akumele ube ngompetha wodwa kulesi sikhala, uzama ukulungisa lolu daba ngesijeziso esilinganiselwe. Izinhlinzeko zomthetho ezinjalo sezivele zisetshenziswa njengokwenza amacala athile ngaphansi kwe-Dog Control Act 1999 abe yicala ngaphansi koMthetho Wezenhlalakahle Yezilwane 1990 (isigaba 174) kanye Imithethonqubo ingenziwa futhi ngaphansi koMthetho Wokulawulwa Kwezinja we-1996 ukwakha ithuluzi elingokomthetho elifanisiwe ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi ukuthobela imithetho kungenziwa iziphathimandla zendawo.
Sidinga izinguquko ukuze sizethule umthetho wezinhlekelele zezilwane eNew Zealand. Imithethonqubo ehlongozwayo iyithuba elihle lokuqala ukwenza ngcono kulesi sikhala.
Ngiyakukhuthaza ukuthi wenze isethulo ku-MPI ngemithetho ehlongozwayo, uncoma:
Thumela nge-imeyili impendulo yakho ngeziphakamiso ngo-5pm ngomhla ka-15 Mashi, 2023 kuya animal.consult@mpi.govt.nz. Wamukelekile ukuthi usike futhi unamathisele okungenhla uma kusiza.
