Droughts

Australia regularly endures droughts. It’s impossible to prevent such events, however RSPCA NSW can provide you with vital information to help you and your animal companions prepare for and respond to droughts.

Animal guardians living in areas at risk of drought or extended dry periods need to implement strategies to ensure the welfare of their animals during water shortages. This is especially significant for those caring for horses and livestock animals. Comprehensive drought preparedness strategies include ensuring an adequate food and water supply, preparing your property for seasonal conditions, and preparing an evacuation plan that accounts for your animals’ needs.
