Belgian ‘Eurovision’ Group Visit Belgrade Zoo – 14th May 08

News just in from JeZa:

Belgian singing groupe- “Ishtar” visited BELGRADE ZOO and lend the name of their song “O Julissi” to the newborn crocodile??

 

Belgian group came to compete on “Eurovision” and end up in Belgrade most uglier prison-

the Belgrade ZOO.

Director of zoo apparently called them to be guests on the day of naming the new born crocodile by their song (this song  is to be preformed on Eurovision).

Belgian singers were happy to visit Belgrade Zoo and they happily uncovered a small board (positioned on crocodile’s cage) with crocodiles new name on it.

After it Belgian singers sang their song- in ZOO!

It was unnecessary and totally wrong to visit Belgrades ugliest prison-the ZOO, animals in Belgrade zoo are victims and are living in catastrophic conditions.

If You do not remember how Animals in Belgrade ZOO look like, see this page:

Anyone knows Belgian activists or anyone from Belgium who can tell us how to find the contact for Belgian singers or any other contact where to send our letters?

 

Thank You !

Bosnia and Herzegovina – Brcko (ARKA) BaZIL No Kill Shelter – News 14th May 08

Photo – the Excellent ARKA ‘No Kill’ Shelter at Brcko

The situation in Brcko is deteriorating steadily so far.  SAV have reliable reports that over 250 dogs have been collected and are being kept in a closed concrete stable until they can be killed. 

No one is allowed in to see what is going on. 

We have some reports that killing is already underway, and NOT by euthanasia either.  The plan is to drive out ARKA (who run the excellent BaZIL shelter) and take over control of the no kill shelter, and possibly change to a regular kill facility !

The possible plan of action will be to write to the Supervisor of Brcko District to stress the importance of humane treatment of all animals including stray dogs, especially to commend the BaZIL shelter and encourage the District to adopt spay and neuter programme rather than one of catch and kill. 
 

More news to be posted as soon as we have confirmation of the situation.  Actions will then be detailed; so please watch for more news.

Serbian Independent activists for animal rights on TV Metropolis

Tuesday, May 13. 2008. / 10am

 

“Leap into reality”

 

Animal Rights activists made a big leap over the high barriers with journalist and leading face of the morning show “Start” Dusan Micovic popularly called Duje.

Duje gave the opportunity for animal rights activism to be heard and along with words about AR activism- the animal voice came through.

Independent Activists for Animal Rights Serbia in 10-15 minutes tried to covered several topics, by answering on questions which Duje prepared for his morning talk show. We started by answering on questions about animal rights activism and about the difference in the animal welfare and animal rights. Vivisection and IAMS/Eukanuba animal testing were next topic (+clips from short film “Bridges” was shown publicly); then we explained a bit about our “meat-less Fridays” actions and circus boycotts which both are planed for near future.

 

Generally, we called on compassion and action, gave public notice that we do not want animal circuses in Serbia and introduced AR idea.

As we heard, prior this morning show, that the “protest note” from importer of Eukanuba/for Serbia was send to one of the newspapers in which they stated that IAMS food was not tested in laboratories and that people should stop spreading those lies about it-that’s why our activists openly called manufactures/importers of IAMS to give proof that they do not test their food on animals (in labs.)

 

TV Metropolis and Duje gave us good treatment and we would be happy to be their guest in near future, Animals depend on our voice and we will give our best for their voice to be heard.
