Some Depraved Individual Sliced the Throats of Seven Puppies for Barking

October 7, 2019 by Chris Marshall Leave a Comment

There are some unbelievably sick people in this world!

Birds chirp, cows moo and dogs bark. We learn this almost before we can pronounce our own names. But for one individual in the locality of Dwarka in New Delhi, India, the fact that dogs bark was too much for them to handle.

This week, an unnamed person took it upon themselves to make sure the dogs around their apartment complex would quit barking — permanently. The unnamed person tortured, murdered and left the bodies of seven puppies strewn along the walkway of the Kargil Apartments.

Later residents found the puppies, all under two months of age, with their throats slit and stabbed multiple times.

Imagine walking out of your house to be confronted with such a disgusting sight.

Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time dogs have been murdered for simply being dogs. According to DNA India, earlier this month, after puppies had the nerve to bark at a drunk man passing by, the man attacked them, flaying and beheading them before tossing them into a garbage can.

Police need to find these killers because they not only pose a threat to dogs, but people capable of such violence are a danger to society as a whole.

Please sign the petition and encourage Dwarka Deputy Commissioner of Police Anto Alphonse to find the dog murderers and charge them with animal cruelty.

Zoo Zebra Has Skin Infection And Is Eating Own Feces

October 7, 2019 by Chris Marshall Leave a Comment

Most animals living in captivity in zoos meant to entertain the public live tragic, unnatural and sometimes tortured lives. That seems to be especially true for one zebra at the San Juan de Aragon Zoo in Mexico City. The poor creature is apparently suffering from some sort of skin infection and has recently been filmed eating his own feces, either out of starvation or psychological distress.

But one thing is clear: this zebra should be released to a sanctuary and this abusive zoo must be shut down!

Not only does the poor zebra have a skin infection, but he seems to have a pretty severe injury to his neck. Whatever is going on, it’s clear this animal is being abused and neglected. He seems to be locked in a concrete room, which is nothing like a natural zebra habitat. Not to mention animals do not typically eat their own feces, it’s almost always a sign of starvation or some sort of psychological distress.

We need to act now if we don’t want this poor animal to die a tragic death confined in a small room. Please sign the petition to demand Mexico shuts down this abusive zoo and sends all their animals to a sanctuary where they can have a shot at a happy life. 

Although this zebra has gotten notoriety for being filmed eating its own feces, a wildabeest died there recently too. There are also reports of major funding cuts for Mexican zoos, meaning things may be getting much worse. We can’t let these animals die such tragic deaths and suffer such horrible treatment in their lives. They are innocent beings and we must stand up for them.

Monkeys shaved, tattooed, imprisoned, and experimented on

October 7, 2019 by Chris Marshall Leave a Comment

How do you get away with murder? You do it in a laboratory and call it “medical research”.

Each year, thousands of monkeys are poisoned, cut open, and tormented in British laboratories – including at the Biomedical Primate Research Centre (BPRC) in the Netherlands, one of the largest primate-torturing facilities in Europe.Locked in rows of cold, barren steel cages with no opportunity to have a life and no chance ever to climb a tree, forage, or play with their family and friends, these intelligent animals live in constant fear. They may be injected repeatedly with chemical compounds, intentionally exposed to pathogens, or used in terrifying and invasive procedures – while they’re conscious – before they are ultimately deemed “useless”, killed, and dissected. Sometimes, this is done in full view of their companions.Living, feeling beings should never suffer this way. Please seize this special chance to help get animals out of laboratories: support the “Stop Animal Testing” challenge right now.Your donation will be matched, pushing us closer to our goal of raising £250,000 by our 31 October campaign deadline.
Macaques and other monkeys don’t queue up voluntarily to be pulled from their forest homes, shoved into wooden crates for frightening journeys in air cargo holds, and shipped off to laboratories – where they’re cut up, thrown around, and treated as mere test tubes. It’s no wonder that an estimated 90% of monkeys in laboratories exhibit severe stress-related behaviour – rocking pitifully back and forth, spinning, and trembling in terror when experimenters enter the room. Experimenting on monkeys isn’t just hideously cruel – it’s also wasteful and unreliable. Key biological differences exist between humans and other primates, and there are problems with applying findings in monkeys to humans in research areas as diverse as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, strokes, and HIV.But even though modern, accurate, humane research methods and training tools are already at their fingertips, experimenters around the world are still tormenting animals as if it were the Dark Ages.Please donate to PETA’s “Stop Animal Testing” challenge today and double your impact on our work to end all types of animal tests.Stopping the horror for our fellow primates will take much more than bigger cages or more careful monitoring of experimenters. It will take the support of kind people such as you who share our determination to keep monkeys out of experimenters’ clutches and to replace all experiments on animals with innovative, human-relevant non-animal methods.Donate NowWe can do that – we are doing that: campaigns by PETA and our affiliates have already pushed every major airline except Air France to stop carrying monkeys bound for laboratories, and PETA has pushed the Dutch government to pledge to slash the number of monkeys it abuses at the taxpayer-funded BPRC. But we must do a lot more to end the misery that countless animals are facing right now.

Up to 1,700 dolphins will die in this annual slaughter

October 7, 2019 by Chris Marshall Leave a Comment

Seriously why?

The annual dolphin slaughter in Taiji, Japan has just gotten underway. In the coming months, 1,700 dolphins and 300 whales will suffer a terrible fate. The “lucky” ones will be caught and sold into captivity to marine animal parks. These dolphins or whales will then spend the rest of their lives in small landlocked enclosures. They will be trained using violence and cruelty to do tricks for food and endure days in and days out of screaming crowds.

Those that aren’t so lucky will be killed. Trapped by the Taiji dolphin hunters, they will be corralled and forced into the infamous “Cove” where they will then be slaughtered, gutted and sold as whale meat. Their carcasses go for just $500. A sad statement as to how much we value the lives of these beautiful animals.

Dolphins are intelligent and social creatures. They live in pods, a closely-knit group of individuals and have their own personalities. These killings should be a national shame for the country of Japan and yet year after year they allow these brutal slayings to continue.

This must end. If you are against, the senseless, gratuitous killing of these beautiful animals sign the petition and demand that Japan stops murdering dolphins.

Please consider signing the petition.

Sign the petition to make microchipping compulsory

October 1, 2019 by Chris Marshall Leave a Comment

How can this not be law? Why do people need telling that this is a good idea?

Microchipping gives a lost cat the best chance of being reunited with its owner. Cats Protection is calling for the compulsory microchipping of owned cats.

Across the UK almost a third of owned cats are not microchipped1. Cats are independent and curious creatures – part of the reason we love them. But this means that they can end up lost, perhaps far from home.

Microchipping is a safe and permanent way to identify a cat and the best way of ensuring lost cats are returned to their loving families.

Please help make sure more cats are microchipped and reduce the numbers of unidentified stray cats.

Sign the petition now calling for compulsory microchipping of owned cats in the UK and help reunite more lost cats.
