How can I report animal cruelty?

First of all, thank you for looking out for the welfare of animals.

If an animal is in immediate danger

Use the urgent reporting route for your state or territory. If there is an immediate threat to human safety, call 000.

Report a welfare concern

Use the official reporting service for the state or territory where the incident happened:

● ACT:  RSPCA ACT

● NSW:  Animal Welfare League NSW or RSPCA NSW

● NT: NT Government Animal Welfare Branch

● Queensland: RSPCA Queensland

● South Australia: RSPCA South Australia

● Tasmania: RSPCA Tasmania

● Victoria: RSPCA Victoria

● Western Australia: RSPCA WA

The responsible agency can differ depending on the animal and situation, so follow the guidance on the relevant reporting page if you’re unsure. The RSPCA Australia reporting directory provides the current state and territory pathways.
