An Australian wildlife rescue group has been fined heavily by the local council for setting warning signs on the road, warning drivers to slow down to avoid bumping into wildlife.
According to the Daily Mail, Philip Island wildlife rescue group (Wildlife Rescue Phillip Island) set warning signs on local roads to warn drivers to slow down to avoid bumping into wildlife. Sign text reads "slow down! Reduce the number of wildlife deaths! Stay vigilant, please pay more attention. Pay attention to wild animals.
Unexpectedly, the signs were fined A $2470 by the Bay Coast County Council of (Bass Coast Shire), Victoria.
Volunteer Mandola (Kaylene Mendola) said the Bath Coast County Council issued A $130 fines for each warning sign. Nor did Congress contact Wildlife Rescue on Philip Island until the ticket was issued.
Mandora also revealed that aid groups had contacted parliament twice before setting up warning signs, but the parliament had no response.
Barkley (Paul Buckley), the head of parliament, said he would waive the fine after a press interview with the Bath Coast County Council today. (he Rong)
