Enjoy watching these – known in the UK as ‘starlings murmuration’; a beautiful dance by starling birds which happens at twilight each night.

 

Tens and tens of thousands of birds are often involved and people are amazed and dumbfounded how all the birds know exactly in which direction to turn at any specific second.

 

mum2

It is not really known why the term ‘murmuration’ is used or even where it came from – but it is something that can be traced back hundreds of years regarding the bird displays.

 

Here in the UK it is often descibed as the best free dance routine anyone can see.  Special observation places are stationed and set up around the UK for people to venture out at dusk and witness this amazing display.

 

Here are a couple of videos from the UK, and one from the Netherlands.

 

Enjoy this amazing display put on by the birds for free for observers every evening !

USA: Big Success In New Mexico for Project Coyote.

Posted on February 8, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

Dear Mark,

As I head to Rohnert Park, California this morning with several members of Project Coyote’s team to speak before the California Fish and Game Commission for protection of wolves and other wildlife from traps and night-hunting, I want to share with you New Mexico’s very favorable response to the premiere screenings of Project Coyote’s documentary film Unfair Game: Ending Wildlife Killing Contests. I also want to update you on our New Mexico coalition’s efforts to ban coyote killing contests statewide.

In early January, we showed the film and presented a panel discussion afterwards in Las Cruces, Albuquerque, and Santa Fe. Panelists included New Mexico State Senator Jeff Steinborn (sponsor of SB 268); Ray Powell, former New Mexico State Land Commissioner; Dan Flores, award-winning author of Coyote America: A Natural and Supernatural History; Kevin Bixby, Executive Director of Southwest Environmental Center—a coalition partner; Jessica Johnson, Chief Legislative Officer of Animal Protection New Mexico—a coalition partner; Dave Parsons, wildlife biologist and Project Coyote Science Advisory Board member; and myself.

We had a fabulous turnout in all three cities — standing room only in Santa Fe and Albuquerque. And Las Cruces is currently showing the documentary on the city’s cable television station, the Las Cruces Channel (38), for the next six weeks during the legislative session.

Because of the overwhelming interest that New Mexicans have shown in the film, we are hoping to provide additional showings in the state.

Check out our footage montage from the screenings here and watch the film trailer here.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27WttR5J5aw 

We’re thrilled to share that on January 30th, New Mexico Senator Senator Jeff Steinborn (D-Las Cruces) and Senator Mark Moores (R-Albuquerque) reintroduced a senate bill in the State Legislature to ban coyote killing contests. Moores and Steinborn had previously passed legislation through the State Senate in 2015.

Like that bill, the current bill, SB 268, aims to put a stop to the dozens of organized competitions held annually in New Mexico, in which participants compete for prizes for killing the most coyotes over a certain time period. Often special prizes are given for killing the largest, smallest, youngest or largest coyote. Read more here.

Statewide media coverage, combined with our multi-city film screenings, has helped to increase public awareness across New Mexico; both the Santa Fe New Mexican and the Albuquerque Journal have published favorable editorials in support of banning coyote killing contests.

 Our New Mexico team is actively engaged in this coalition effort. You can read a recent article quoting Project Coyote Science Advisory Board member and Albuquerque resident Dave Parsons about these issues here, as well as a recent Op Ed titled “Coyote-killing contests in the Land of Enchantment” in the Santa Fe New Mexican by Dave and Project Coyote Ambassador Dan Flores here. And you can watch Dave speak about wildlife killing contests in this short video.

Today, in conjunction with our coalition partners, Project Coyote’s New Mexico Representative Judy Paulsen and volunteers will take part in the Sierra Club’s Lands, Water and Wildlife Lobby Day 2017 at the New Mexico State Capital Building Rotunda in Santa Fe. There, we’ll be sharing our film and message with legislators and the public. Find out more here.

We will continue to update our supporters about SB 268; please share our action alert (read here) with anyone you know who resides in New Mexico who you think would find this issue of interest.

And please accept my deepest gratitude for your support of our work to bring to light the persecution that coyotes and other predators face. Without your support, none of our campaigns to press for science-based conservation, stewardship and humane approaches to living with predators and other wildlife would be possible.

For the Wild,

Camilla H. Fox
Founder & Executive Director

USA: 21 Dead Horses Found at Horrifying Animal Death Trap – Petition for Action.

Posted on February 8, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

21 Dead Horses Found at Horrifying Animal Death Trap

take-action-3

Petition Link –  https://animalpetitions.org/170228/justice-for-dozens-of-animals-allegedly-starved-to-death/

Target: Hon. Crystal Heinz, County Attorney for Trimble County, Kentucky

Goal: Demand the maximum penalty for the woman who allegedly neglected dozens of animals on her property, resulting in the deaths of over 20.

Twelve malnourished horses and dozens of dead animals were found on a Kentucky pasture. They reportedly had no access to food. Demand justice for these innocent animals.

“You hear about it, and you don’t think it is going to happen in your area. Then once it comes across, it is a huge shock,” stated Dan Flinkfelt of Henry County Animal Control. Investigators searched the property after two dead horses were seen from the driveway. In total, they found 21 dead horses, along with dead alpacas, goats, rabbits, and cats. The 12 surviving horses appeared malnourished.

Marlena Robinson, the owner of the property, was charged with 54 counts of animal cruelty and 43 counts of improper disposal of a dead animal. The surviving horses are slowly recovering. Sign below and demand that Robinson receive the maximum penalty by law, if convicted.

 

 

PETITION LETTER:

Dear County Attorney Heinz,

Animal Control investigators found dozens of dead animals on a Bedford pasture. The surviving horses appeared severely malnourished. We demand justice for these innocent animals.

“It’s a mess. We found more than what we thought we would find,” stated Flinkfelt. A local rescue group took custody of the 12 malnourished horses found on Robinson’s property. They also found dozens of animal corpses, which were reportedly not disposed of properly. It is unknown how long the animals were without food.

Dozens of helpless animals suffered and died due to this alleged neglect. We demand that you seek the maximum penalty in this case.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

USA: Tell The USDA, Show Me The Reports – Dont Hide Animal Cruelty !

Posted on February 7, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

SAV Comment – No doubt access removed by the emperor to cover up for his animal abusing friends.

trump-liberty-pissed-off

Jesus America – how did you ever vote a ***** like this into being President ? – Mega rich looking after mega rich and nothing else.

 

On Friday the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) removed tens of thousands of animal-related inspection reports, documents and enforcement actions from its public website, citing unspecified privacy issues and, strangely, a commitment to “transparency.”

 

take-action-3

We’re asking you to help us fight back—for the animals left in the dark, and for our basic rights.

 

Animal welfare groups such as the ASPCA, as well as journalists, pet-related businesses, state agencies and the public rely heavily on this online resource.

Why is USDA hiding the reports now?

Why make it more difficult to look into a business’s record of animal treatment?

Who benefits, besides industries that want to keep their animal abuse hidden from the public eye?

take-action-3


 Stand with us now and sign our petition to USDA, telling it to reverse its blackout on animal welfare information.

USA: Is Emperor Trump Now Ready To Give 100 Million Acres of Pristine Arctic (Currently Protected) Back To His Rich Mates In Oil and Gas ?

Posted on February 7, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

We’re asking those devoted to protecting polar bears, seals and other ocean wildlife — like you — to make sure we have the resources we need every day. Please, give wildly with a monthly recurring gift. Read on to learn why we need you by our side now more than ever. — Kierán

 

Hi Mark,

President Trump may be about to pull off his biggest oil industry giveaway yet: revoking protections for more than 100 million acres of Arctic polar bear habitat and handing it over to Big Oil and Gas.

Allowing offshore oil and gas companies into the heart of the pristine Arctic — home to polar bears and ice seals already desperately struggling to survive — will be a disaster for wildlife and the climate. An oil spill would be impossible to clean up, and the nearest Coast Guard station is 1,000 miles away.

But Trump doesn’t care about that. He’s doing whatever it takes to open up the cash pipeline for his super-rich friends.

trump-emperor
We’ll never let Big Oil and Gas get their hands on the Arctic. Please make a monthly gift to the Center to support our Trump Resistance Fund today. With your automatic support you’ll help build the firepower it’s going to take to protect the Arctic and its wildlife from Trump and the oil and gas industry.

No one has done more to save polar bears than the Center for Biological Diversity. We fought in court to get them protected under the Endangered Species Act and safeguarded their most critical habitat against the threats from the oil and gas industry.

We’ve fought similar fights to save other wildlife in the Arctic, including ice seals. We know how to win.

Trump has a dark vision for the Arctic. Instead of unspoiled shorelines and crisp clean air, he wants the region industrialized and polluted — existing solely for oil and gas profits. But pipelines fail, and oil spills and disaster follow the oil and gas industry wherever it goes.

President Obama did the right thing late last year by protecting 115 million acres of the Arctic from offshore drilling. With a stroke of his pen, Trump will overturn that visionary action.

We’ll fight hard to stop him. Please consider enrolling in monthly giving and we’ll mount a fierce defense of polar bears and other Arctic wildlife.

By giving wildly with a monthly donation, you’ll be helping the Center hire 10 new lawyers and investigators to stop the worst of Trump’s plans, from the high courts to the court of public opinion. We’re growing a movement that is millions strong and will mobilize out in the streets with a history-making wave of activism and resistance. But we need you by our side to make it happen.

Please support the Trump Resistance Fund with a monthly recurring donation today.

For the wild,

Kierán Suckling
Executive Director
Center for Biological Diversity
