Thank you Lyn and all at AA for doing some very difficult work that needs to be done. Lyn, your professionalism and assertive attitude has brought animal cruelty issues into the public eye in such a way that people are listening. You are truly an inspiration.

An angel for animals

Lyn, its hard to find words to thank you for your dedication to our animal friends. The live animal trade is a blot on our country's history. I cant think of anything more inhumane than this abhorrent practice. I became a vegetarian after seeing footage of the treatment of our sheep in the Middle East and after the Indonesian footage cant even look at meat without feeling anger and revulsion. I hope you have the fortitude to keep up the good work you do. You are an inspiration in this increasingly greedy world.

Eternal Gratitude to Lyn White!! Dear Lyn, I admire you from the bottom of my heart!!!

Thank you Lyn White for all your heard work!!!
I've always sympathised animals and hated people taking advantage of their vulnerability. But only after stumbling across your AA web-site I realised how appalling the situation is and how ignorant people are!!!
I'm 100% sure there is an enormous amount of people like me who want to do the right and good thing but just don't know where to start from!
Also I am 100% sure there are many more people who are not fully aware of all these horrible things; they are in some kind of a dream and need awakening, like I did.
WHAT I BELIEVE WE, THE-AWOKEN ONES (that is us), NEED TO DO IS HELP OTHERS TO WAKE UP!!!
Not everyone is so lucky as to come across AA page or other web-source or have a friend who knows about animal cruelty... By at least talking to people and showing them the pictures and footages, we can plant tiny seeds in their minds and hearts that might grow into something as big as THE LYN WHITE!!!
We must try and create greater numbers of Animal Welfare Supporters, the numbers that no Government would be able to ignore!!!
Let's do it !
Go Animal Welfare Support!!!

Thank you Lyn

I don't know how you do it and have the strength to continue to hold your head up high. I'm in tears just from the photos and can't bring myself to watch the footage. I'm a vegetarian and quite passionate about animals. I'm just wondering if some one like the Dali Lama or Indian Government can assist as they worship cattle. Perhaps from a legal point of view Erin Brokervic. Not sure if these suggestions have been considered but every bit helps i guess. I know that banning live export is just one part in the plight of protecting ALL animals but at least we will have a start. Bless you Lyn, you should run for Parliament.

A true Leader
Wednesday, 22 February 2012 at 10:04pm
I saw Lyn speak on Monday night and I was riveted from the moment she walked out with her slender frame and took her place behind the podium. I couldn't imagine someone so slight could deal with some of the horror that she's witnessed time and time again. She spoke from the heart and I felt incredibly moved by what she had to say. For someone who never thought of herself in the position she is in now, she has emerged as a leader in the animals rights and advocacy. I applaud her from my own heart for the phenomenal work she is doing. She alone has changed my life and that of my family whereby we now make very conscious choices about what we eat and our total non support of factory farming. Lyn I thank you so much for what you are doing to make our world a better place for our children and their children.

I can hardly find the words to express my deep admiration and respect for Lyn White and the team at Animals Australia. You're out there in the thick of it (the very best of humanity bearing witness to the very worst) giving a voice to all animals. Your unyielding courage and committment gives me hope for a more compassionate world. THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!

Victory will prevail
Friday, 17 February 2012 at 3:28am
Decision makers alike need to be opened to empathy- and legislation cannot remain of the old if we are to create change. A mass number of concerned citizens of this nation were in the trenches with those courageous leaders and team members of Animals Australia we all know so well through their dedication that inspired a nation to speak up and speak out using whatever means were and continue to be available to them, during the live export expose'. We can and will change the future and this is stated in optimism because I believe and strive for a better future for this country as an example to others and have the foresight to see where the weed seeds exist and need to be teased out for the sake of the animals and for a healthy hearted Australia that can bring a large decline in acts of cruelty to animals by enacting a new generation to think independently and empower them to express themselves without feeling labelled or being excluded, societally.

Thank God for You
Thursday, 16 February 2012 at 12:34pm
Thank-you Lyn for the wonderful work you have undertaken on behalf of our animal friends.I am behind you 100% with any support I can give. As the poor creatures have been suffering in silence for ages. Hopefully with your leadership and enough conscious people who care we can bring an end to cruel practises that put money above everything that matters.

Lynn, I have just finished watching your programme on The Project. Am sitting here with tears, you are truly an incredible lady. Along with your local crew you all do a absolute magnificant job highlightening unacceptable cruelty to our beloved animals. Keep up the good work Lynn we certainly need people like you. Look forward to seeing you in Perth...

I heard Lyn speak via televised broadcast at the rally to end live export it was humbling to see all the people quietly listening with absolute respect. few politicians can command that.

Bravo to lyn White and her team
Wednesday, 15 February 2012 at 10:37am
I don't know how she does it! Filming the cruelty and suffering steadfastly, without breaking down. I just couldn't. What an example to us all and at last rewarded by awakening our consciences, to get action . Super lady ! Iam in awe of your strength of will. It takes people like this to stick their necks out on behalf of us all and our helpless so vulnerable animals of any kind. Thankyou from the bottom of our hearts and keep it up because otherwise the powers that be will just wait until the noise abates to avoid their obligations. We owe you and your team a great debt and must never forget it !

Thank you Lyn White and Animals Australia for your tireless work in appreciating and helping animals. Your efforts have made so many people aware of the disgusting cruelties that currently exist - we all must work to stamp out these practices. With you all the way Animals Australia
