When it rains, it pours. My question is to the Minister for the Environment. I refer the minister to his recent comments about the importance of funding for Antarctica's walrus populations. Given walruses are confined to the northern hemisphere and are not found in the Antarctic, can the minister confirm whether his information on walruses came from the same source he used when calling for the protection of Tasmanian tigers?
