Australia\u2019s Royal Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCAs) have expressed sadness following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Queen Elizabeth\u2019s interest in animals was well noted, and she was a patron of the RSPCA in England and Wales. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The RSPCA was initially established in Australia in 1871 (in Victoria) and received the royal warrant in 1923, and at that time was known as the Royal Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\u201cToday we join the community, and our colleagues overseas, in sending our deepest condolences to the Royal Family and to the people of the United Kingdom,\u201d an RSPCA spokesperson said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
CEO of RSPCA NSW, Steve Coleman, said The Queen displayed \u201clove and kindness towards all creatures, great and small.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cShe had a passion for horses, and adored being the company of her beloved Corgis,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe would like to thank Her Majesty for her commitment to animal welfare, and for showing the world how loyal and special the bond between animals and humans can be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMay she rest in eternal peace.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
