Animal Abuse-Let's help save them!

Please Support!!!

Dear All,

This is my introductory post on animal abuse/cruelty. Most of the  animal kingdom..... (I say most, because I'm excluding those that are perpetrators of such acts)..... would be eternally grateful if you could  support this venture of highlighting this heart crushing issue to the world, by continuing to read and comment on the topics posted.

 I have emphasized on some extremely interesting topics on animal abuse.

Please note that these posts contain some graphic images, therefore, you may have to view with some discretion

If you are interested in a topic, please feel free to let me know. I will try my best to address your concerns.

Today I will start by portraying a few pictures  that strengthened my desire to help stop animal abuse. I hope it will have the same impact, if not a greater one, on you.

      
            


                                  

What is our justification for these horrific acts??????


 I'll end today's post by asking you  to pray with us so that we may be saved!

Animal Abuse-So I can eat!

THE ILLEGAL BUSH MEAT TRADE
Bush Meat was originally defined as the hunting and killing of all types of wild animals in West and Central Africa, Asia and the humid tropics of the Americas.
The meat trade is an illegal activity that takes place on a daily basis. Wildlife is indiscriminately hunted for criminal profits, irrespective of whether they are endangered or not.

China also has a booming puppy meat trade, where thousands meet the most horrifying end by getting boiled alive or clubbed to death:

The consumption of illegal bush meat is remarkably dangerous, with viruses such as Ebola and AIDS rife. However, even these risks do not prevent the brutal murder of endangered species.

Another consequence to this barbaric act when entire families of monkeys are hunted down and murdered, quite often the traumatized babies are sold as exotic pets:

Wild animals such as dogs, cats, monkeys, tigers etc., are all classed as bush meat.
This part of Animal Rights Action will look at the following elements of bush meat:

The Bush Meat trade in Africa
The Bush Meat trade is sickeningly brutal and cruel. I for one am disgusted that this still goes on in today's society. It must be stopped!

Illegal Dog Meat Trade in Asia

The illegal dog meat trade is the ultimate betrayal of mans best friend! Southeast Asia's illegal dog meat trade is on the rise. It is a multi-million dollar industry run by criminals of the worst kind.
In Thailand crime lords arrange the capture of at least 30 000 stray dogs every month for exportation into Vietnam, via Laos and the illegal river borders, where the taste for bush meat, particularly dog meat, runs high.
Thai society frowns upon this activity, however, killing dogs, no matter how brutally, carries no legal penalty.
Wild dogs are corralled and forced into wire cages for export to Vietnam. They are graded by size as different sized dogs are worth different amounts. How they can look at a defenceless animal in this way is beyond me!

Animal Abuse-Please stop it !

I hope you get the point!
Animal experimentation for household products and cosmetic companies include forcing animals to inhale chemical fumes, ingest their ingredients and rub them into their shaved scalps, eyes, limbs and raw skin. The effects can be devastating:

Some animal rights groups take matters into their own hands and break into research labs to free the animals, so they don't have to suffer from animal experimentation anymore.

In 2004 someone freed 47 animals from the laboratory and dog kennels at W.B Saul High School, Philadelphia, USA:

Animal Abuse- Facts About Animal Cruelty

Very interesting facts about animal abuse.

 
2. Each year, thousands of young and healthy Greyhounds are killed because they lack racing potential or have been injured while racing and are no longer competitive.
 
3. Due to genetic manipulation, 90% of broiler chickens (chicken bred specifically for meat production) have trouble walking.
 
4.  Dogfighting became prevalent in the US after the Civil War, with professional pits proliferating in the 1860s. And was a source of entertainment for police officers and firemen.
 
5.  Today dogfighting has been reported in urban, suburban, and rural settings in all regions of the world.           
 
6.  More than 50% the fur in the United States comes from China, where there are no penalties for abusing animals, which are raised in unbearably cramped and run-down cages on fur farms.
 
7. It’s been estimated that there are 900 to 2,000 new cases every year of animal hoarding in the US, with 250,000 animals falling victim.
 
8. Over 100 million animals – mice, rats, dogs, cats, rabbits, monkeys, birds, among others – are killed in US laboratories for chemical, drug, food, and cosmetics testing every year.
 
9.  Every major circus that uses animals has been cited for violating the minimal standards of care set by the United States Animal Welfare (AWA).
 
10. Most rodeo events rely on creating a stressful environment for the domesticated and often docile animals involved. Participants rely on harsh handling practices (i.e. twisting calves’ tails or painful electric shocks) to make animals perform.
 
11. The exotic pet trade is a multi-billion dollar industry and while some wild pets are bred in captivity, many are taken from their native habitats. The stress of being violently removed from their homes causes a number to die prematurely.

Animal Abuse- Innocent and Helpless!!

Heartless and Barbaric!!
 
I came across this old video from a couple of years ago that recaptured my attention. I cannot understand how someone can carry out such unexplainable ,senseless acts on these innocent, helpless creatures.
 
 
 
Man used to hunt and kill for food, for survival... like an animal, nothing more... but, somewhere down the road, as we 'progressed'..................yeh right, things changed. We abuse our power, and kill, murder, plunder... excessively, for money, greed, vanity. We no longer care or give a damn about life. We do not hesitate even for a split second when we rob another being's right to live. We have lost our basic sense of decency and reason. We are the worse form of life on this planet.

Every year, THOUSANDS of sealers or seal hunters go on a killing spree, wiping out entire colonies of seals, adult, young, babies... blatantly
ignoring authorities' ban and animal lovers' protests... while their governments just sit and watch.... as these poor creatures are being 'harvested' like crops...

There is blood on the ice. Clubbed to near death, suffering and in pain, fully conscious and aware of their impending fate... they wait for their turn, to be cut open, to be skinned alive, to die. With tears of blood, they watch as their kind are being 'finished off', one by one.

The line is drawn. The difference is clear. There is no grey area. Which side are you on? Will you just turn away, and let these murder go on, year after year, after year? Or will you take a stand, and do what you can? Every second we spent waiting, thinking, wondering, is another seal dying....

Now... What will you do?

Animal Abuse-Thanks for rescuing me.

Fauna -A Real  Fighter

Please have a read on Fauna's dilemma. It's amazing how heartless we can be.

11.5.14 - Woman Who Left Dog in Trash Found & ChargedEarlier this week we told you about a severely starved dog found in a garbage can in New Stanton, Pennsylvania.  We’re happy to tell you that she’s slowly recovering, and that her former owner has been located and is charged with animal cruelty.
Nathan Binnie was on his rounds as a trash collector when he came to a can that he didn’t immediately heave into the truck.  Inside was a skeletal shepherd mix.
“It was just one of those cans I didn’t pick up and just throw in my truck,” he said. “You could see every bone. [The dog was] shivering and shaking. It was just horrific.”
He fed her his lunch as he waited for authorities to pick her up and take her to a shelter.  She was brought to the Humane Society of Westmoreland County.  The 10-month-old dog was in such bad shape, vets couldn’t even draw blood to start a full work up on her.
The dog’s name used to be Mia, but the HSWC has been calling her Fauna since she was taken in.  A petition was created calling for charges to be brought against her former owner, who was reported to have moved to Texas on October 27th.
Thankfully, Fauna was micro chipped and owner Nikki Baker was tracked down.  She is facing charges of animal cruelty and disorderly conduct.  She admitted to leaving her intentionally starved dog in the garbage can so she could go to Texas to be with her boyfriend.  She is now in the Greensburg, PA area, staying with a friend.
Investigators searched through Baker’s phone and read conversations she had with her friends after Fauna’s story went public.
“By reading through the messages and things of that nature, she had intentionally misled people that were offering to help when it came to taking care of Mia, the dog,” said Trooper Stephen Limani.  “She acknowledged the fact that at some point in time, she realized what she was doing, she fully knew it was wrong, and still she put a dog, her dog, in a garbage can.”
 
11.5.14 - Woman Who Left Dog in Trash Found & Charged2

The woman’s daughter, Brittany Prinkey, lives next door to the trailer where her mother had been starving the dog, and has been being harassed about what happened
“People have been throwing stuff at my house, at my car, threatening me, telling me I should die. I should be put in a trash bag and left to suffocate without food and water,” Prinkey explained.  “I never thought my mom would be able to do something like that. It’s my mom. I never thought she would do something like that.”
Prinkey is not a suspect, and investigators confirm that Baker acted alone.  The mother and daughter are estranged, and Prinkey says the last time she had seen the dog in July, she was healthy.
“I’m super upset with her. I just don’t understand how someone could do that,” Prinkey said.  “I didn’t have any involvement with what my mom did. I didn’t even know I was on the application. I was informed later that I was down as a second contact – I wasn’t an owner.”
Baker listed her as a contact when she adopted the dog in April.  Prinkey found out what happened to poor Fauna when she was called at work on Thursday.
“I was so upset, I felt like I was going to throw up. I was so sick to my stomach about everything,” she said.  “I couldn’t believe it. That garbage can is right over there. I didn’t hear anything. No one heard anything. No one knew. It’s disgusting.”
Meanwhile, humane agent Janet Dillion says Fauna has gained eight pounds so far, and has received sweaters, toys, and treats donated from Burton’s Pet Store.  Hundreds have already inquired about adopting her, and when she is healthy enough, she will go to the home that’s best for her.
