They had previously petitioned the Chinese authorities against the project, asking for compensation for the destruction of their homes and the land on which they depend.

Several protesters were arrested and interrogated but for the moment the construction is on hold.

The Chinese government wants the world to believe that Tibetans are content under its rule. Stories like this help to expose the reality – can you help us get the news out?

Here is just one typical story;

Eli was kept in a city pound on a very short chain – The chain was so short that she couldn’t reach the dog house.

She was rescued, taken to safety and to the vet for a full assessment. It took her some time to recover, but NOW she is a happy and healthy girl. Under the loving care of volunteers, Eli has blossomed in a true golden retriever beauty and she is as lovable as a Goldens can be.

This is what Eli has to say:

” Hi my name is Eli, I’m here with my friends and it is so safe and nice. They are so kind and loving. They say that I am the kindest, most gentle and loving girl EVER!!!

That I am a perfect dog for the perfect family….

Life is beautiful and I love every minute of it.

I love people, other dogs, children, everyone!.

They say that I am pretty close to perfect!“……..

Eli is spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, she has passport – just in case ….

We are looking for a loving home, where Eli is going to be loved forever and ever . Please SHARE

And a link to shelter Alex Subotica;

http://alexsubotica.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/shelter-alex-who-we-are-see-our-photos.html

The shelter was opened on 28/01/2003 during the time when Subotica legally permitted euthanasia of dogs and on Fridays people could bring their dogs to be euthanized for free.

This is the first no-kill shelter in Serbia.

The shelter covers the area of 12000m2 + an additional land next to the shelter (approx. 3600 m2) that still isn’t fenced nor used.

Currently in the shelter there are more than 500 dogs.

Around 70% of the dogs are old (some have been in the shelter since 2003/2004).

http://alexsubotica.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/shelter-alex-who-we-are-see-our-photos.html

There are only 2-4 people taking care of the shelter and its dogs.

The shelter is funded exclusively by donations, which are not regular or reliable.

The shelter requires building materials, cleaning supplies, food (granules and canned food, salami, bread, etc), blankets, fleas/ticks products and money to cover the vet costs, bills, etc.

South Africa: RESULT – Towers Restaurant at Crystal Towers Hotel in Cape Town Will No Longer Sell Foie Gras.

Posted on May 14, 2015 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

Stop Crystal Towers Cape Town (African Pride Hotels Group) from selling Foie Gras!

WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!!!!!!!!

Thanks again everyone! Please note I am now “going after” a different restaurant in Cape Town: The Taste Kitchen. Please SIGN!

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/870/108/632/stop-foie-gras-meals-at-the-test-kitchen-in-cape-town

About the original Petition – which has now stopped.

Please click on the above link for the new campaign.

Original wording:

Towers Restaurant at Crystal Towers Hotel in Cape Town is selling foie gras!!!!

The production of foie gras (the liver of a duck or a goose that has been specially fattened) involves the controversial force-feeding of birds with more food than they would eat in the wild, and more than they would voluntarily eat domestically.

According to Peta.org this is what occurs:

“Foie gras is made from the grotesquely enlarged livers of ducks and geese who have been cruelly force-fed. Although France is the primary producer (and consumer) of this so-called “delicacy”—France produces more than 20,000 tons of foie gras each year—force-feeding takes place on a few duck farms in the U.S. too.

Although foie gras has historically come from force-fed geese, most foie gras farms now raise ducks—mule, Muscovy, and genetically manipulated, sterile birds called “moulards.”

Farmers have found that they can sell more than just the ducks’ fattened livers: Ducks’ legs, breasts, fat, and skin are all marketed for (mostly French) specialty foods. The bodies of geese, however, age too quickly to be used for some of these foods. Today, in France, only 4 percent of foie gras comes from geese. It is common, however, for geese to be raised for their down as well as for foie gras; birds with white feathers are preferred for this purpose.

Force-Feeding

Birds raised for foie gras spend the first four weeks of their lives eating and growing, sometimes in semi-darkness. For the next four weeks, they are confined to cages and fed a high-protein, high-starch diet that is designed to promote rapid growth. Force-feeding begins when the birds are between 8 and 10 weeks old. For 12 to 21 days, ducks and geese are subjected to gavage—every day, between 2 and 4 pounds of grain and fat are forced down the birds’ throats by means of an auger in a feeding tube.The Washington Post reported that the tube “is pushed 5 inches down their throats, and more food than they want is gunned into their stomachs. If the mushy corn sticks … a stick is sometimes used to force it down.”The birds’ livers, which become engorged from a carbohydrate-rich diet, can grow to be more than 10 times their normal size (a disease called “hepatic steatosis”).The mortality rate of birds raised for foie gras has been found to be as much as 20 times higher than that of birds raised normally, and carcasses show wing fractures and severe tissue damage to the throat muscles”.

you have the power to create change.
