Make a note in your diary; this Sunday – 4th October 2009.

World Animal Day is celebrated each year on 4 October. It started in Florence, Italy in 1931 at a convention of ecologists.[1] On this day, animal life in all its forms is celebrated, and special events are planned on locations all over the globe. 4 October was originally chosen for World Animal Day because it is the feast day of Francis of Assisi, a nature lover and patron saint of animals and the environment. Numerous churches throughout the world observe the Sunday closest to 4 October with a Blessing for the Animals.

However, World Animal Day has now gone beyond being the celebration of a Christian saint and is today observed by animal-lovers of all beliefs, nationalities and backgrounds. Animal blessings are held in churches, synagogues, and by independent Animal Chaplains in parks and fields.[2] Animal rescue shelters hold fundraising events and open days, wildlife groups organize information displays, schools undertake animal-related project work and individuals and groups of friends or co-workers donate to animal charities or pledge to sponsor a shelter animal.

Uk (England): **Newsflash** – Over 600 Crazy, Wild Gorillas Run the Streets of London !!

Great Gorilla Run 2009 – LONDON

More than 600 runners in gorilla costumes put a smile on the faces of Londoners on Saturday 26 September in the Great Gorilla Run 2009.

The run, in its seventh year, is one of the most popular annual events in the capital.

The run was started by children’s television presenter Helen Skelton, who says “I’d encourage anyone to support a charity that helps protect gorillas. It’s easy to take wildlife for granted, but we’ll regret that in the not too distant future if we don’t act now. This is a fun race that is entertaining to watch and even more so to take part in.”

Grunlondon2

grunlondon3

Helen started the run along with intrepid gorilla-runner Rory Coleman who had run all the way to London from his home in Nottinghamshire in a gorilla suit. He arrived to a rapturous gorilla-welcome, and was at the front of the hundreds of other runners.

The quickest gorilla-runner completed the 7km course in just 34 minutes. The slowest was the UN Ambassador for the Year of the Gorilla, Ian Redmond, who walked on all-fours for most of the circuit and finished in just under two hours.

This year’s fundraisers have already raised more than £130, 000 (pounds) for The Gorilla Organization.

They will still be raising money until November.

grunlondon6

The donations go towards community conservation projects in areas of precious gorilla habitat in Africa. Today gorillas are threatened, not due to a demand for their meat or their infants, but due to pressures on the lush forest where they live. For the poverty-stricken communities around the gorilla habitat, it is the forest that provides them with many of their fundamental human needs, but sadly, the collection of basic resources, such as water and firewood, is destroying the gorilla habitat and in turn the gorillas.

There are now only around 720 mountain gorillas left in the wild. Executive Director of The Gorilla Organization, Jillian Miller, says “The Great Gorilla Run is a fantastic way to raise money for the brave African conservationists and rangers who risk their lives protecting the gorillas so they will still be there for generations yet to come.

Subject: DawnWatch: Rescue Ink

From: “DawnWatch” <news@dawnwatch.com>
 
Many of you will remember a New York Times story from August last year
about a band of tattooed bikers who rescue animals
. (The DawnWatch alert
on that article, “Heaven’s Angels,” is at http://tinyurl.com/yb7ta6x)
Well, now there is a reality show about them, starting tonight, Friday
September 25, on the National Geographic Channel at 10pm.

You can find out all about it at http://tinyurl.com/nx928l And I can’t resist sharing here what the National Geographic website has to say about the new show, Rescue Ink:
———————–
tough2

In New York’s war on animal abuse, some of the worst offenders are pursued
by a group of tattooed motorcycle-riding tough guys on a mission to save
animals in danger. They call themselves Rescue Ink, and these are their
stories.

In a metropolitan area with more than 20 million residents, thousands of
animals — dogs, cats, and even chickens and piranhas — are neglected,
abused, hoarded or housed illegally. A few years ago, eight tough guys
from the mean streets, who frequented hot rod shows and tattoo parlors,
discovered their strongest bond was actually a passion for animals
— and
they formed a rescue organization like no other. Some have violent and
turbulent pasts, complete with run-ins with the law, but all are seeking
redemption and solace in their mission to save animals from human abuse.

This new weekly series that documents this unlikely group of animal
activists on their crusade to save helpless, abandoned and abused animals
.

The eclectic band of brothers — composed of club bouncers, security guards
and even a retired New York Police Department (NYPD) detective — is on
call 24/7 to take on cases no one else will. They’re not cops, animal
experts or even animal control.

They’re just big guys with even bigger hearts and a desire to save animals from deplorable living conditions and abusive or simply misguided owners.

The website also has links to help you donate to the group, volunteer, or
buy Rescue Ink t-shirts, bags and more.

I send appreciation to Elizabeth Boren, who was the first to make sure we
knew about this series. Thanks to all who dropped a line.

Happy watching!
Yours and the animals’,

Below is the translation of the French petition, than can be followed.

Petition wording:

Animals in Morocco“If you visit Morocco, you’ll certainly be charmed by the hospitality of the Moroccans, their kindness and goodness. However, a question remains: Have Moroccans forgotten that animals are living beings and that they deserve Respect?

Indeed, animal abuse in this country is a reality, and it is more visible as dogs, cats, horses, mules and others, are part of the landscape. They are everywhere in the country, in cities the streets of cities … But there are also those that are not seen and who suffer out of sight. They are often horses and mules. Why are they so abused? Of course, the life of many Moroccans is difficult and many have to work long hours to earn some money. Is this a reason to punish those without whom they would have even less?

The city of Casablanca:

One can spend a day in Casablanca without ignoring the presence of animals around. Thousands of dogs and cats suffer the daily plight of the street. They are neglected, abandoned, victims of cruelty, not vaccinated and not sterilized. Horses, donkeys are the means of transport for the poorest. They are treated as mere objects, soulless, emotionless. The pickups of the impounded dogs are made in inhumane conditions.

Yes, the plight of animals in Morocco is clearly visible. It is time to make it better.. do something!

Help us help them! ”

Here is the message I received.

Add more? I think we should help the handful of animal guards who tirelessly give themselves body and soul to the defence of these unfortunates.
