4/10/14 – EU Live Animal Transport.

On 18/9 we had verbal communication from Commissioner Borg’s office at the EU that our official letter in relation to a maximum one off journey time of 8 hours for all farm animals in transport across the EU was being reviewed and that ‘issues were being addressed’.

We were also informed that we would have an official response from the Commissioner in the future.

https://serbiananimalsvoice.com/2014/09/18/live-exports-eu-live-farm-animal-transport-update-18914/  

To date, we have not yet had a formal reply to address our concerns expressed in our original letter; but as with all EU correspondence, it is a matter of waiting and waiting until something arrives.   We know and are very confident that we will get a formal response in time; but as yet it has not happened.  When things do progress; which we hope will be this month (October), we will reproduce the information onto this site.

He was a nice little African-Cameroon goat.

You saw  on pics from farm where Nani is, was female and male Cameroon goats.

Hunters killed him by knife – poor little, had no chance, was slaughtered yesterday.

Things like this one ,are typical for homo sapiens brutal animal species, this species  knows and do  hating and killing for fun – no  one species never  kill for enjoy- only  brutal morbid homo sapiens species, even doesn`t know what is its natural food .

I am very sad and only my feelings are Sad and deep Shame.

And below; the story from the past on the future of Nani Deer; as of today – 4/10/14 – still no decision on the future of Nani deer; despite intervention from the President.  See our recent post about this.

You could say Serbian politicians at the Ministry of Agriculture appear to do exactly what they want to do, rather than what the Constitutional laws of the country require !!!!

Minister of Agriculture, Mrs Bogosavljevic Boskovic  originally had 30 day for  acting  in agreement to Article 58. of Law of animal welfare – but she did not .

That is why I send  to her  a letter by which I remind her for her law obligation.

It is in opposite to law that state any organ  go to be silent – must answer
and the Answer must be in agreement to laws.

In agreement to Serbian laws this Minister must send  ( into 30 days  from
official Request  ) Decide about back Nani deer to Dragana Mitic and Nani`s
home,  because all evidences  speak to this form Decide.

USA: This is not hunting; this is simply mass killing for fun Protect Idaho’s Wolves – Take Action Now !

USA1

 

Wolves hunting!

Dear Mark,

Thank you for taking action to help protect Idaho’s wolves!

The proposed event would take place every winter for five years, when wolves and other wildlife are most vulnerable out foraging for food in the snow and extreme cold.

This is not hunting; this is simply mass killing for fun based upon hatred and fear.

So please, take just a moment to share this news with your friends.

Your petition, and the petitions of thousands like you, will help bring this important issue to the Bureau of Land Management’s attention, before it’s too late.

Jamie and the Defenders Team

DOW Take Action

Dear Mark,

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is now seriously considering allowing a five-year predator-killing derby on our public lands in Idaho.

If you care about wolves and other wildlife as much as I do, please help by telling the (BLM) that you do not support a free-for-all killing spree on our public lands.

A “hunters’ rights” organization wants to hold this multi-year wolf and predator-killing derby on national public lands, including those being studied for designation as wilderness!

Turning wolf killing into a competitive sport is bad enough. But this proposed derby would also sweep many important species of predators and other wildlife in Idaho into its gun sights, rewarding the killing of wolves and others predators.

Last year’s wolf and coyote-killing derby, sponsored by this same group, included prizes for killing the most coyotes and killing the largest wolf. This is not hunting; this is simply mass-killing for fun based upon hatred and fear.

DOW Take Action

Tell the BLM to deny a five-year predator derby permit on public lands!

The proposed event would take place every winter for five years when wolves and other wildlife are at their most vulnerable – out foraging for food in the snow and extreme cold.

Events like these are the same kinds of barbaric extermination-era tactics that drove wolves to the brink of extinction in the Lower 48 in the first place! This is not modern wildlife management, and it has no place in our society.

DOW Take Action

Please take just a moment to stand up for wolves and other predators in Idaho!

Thank you for all you do.

Sincerely,

Jamie Rappaport Clark

Global: 4th October 2014 Is ‘World Animals Day’ – Check Links Below For Lots More.

WAD 1

 

World Animal Day was started in 1931 at a convention of ecologists in Florence as a way of highlighting the plight of endangered species. October 4 was chosen as World Animal Day as it is the Feast Day of St Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals.

Since then, World Animal Day has become a day for remembering and paying tribute to all animals and the people who love and respect them. It’s celebrated in different ways in every country, with no regard to nationality, religion, faith or political ideology.

Philippines: Major Victory In The Battle Against Crush Videos.

Phil

http://www2.peta.org/site/MessageViewer?amp;autologin=true&dlv_id=0&dlv_id=225167&em_id=157065.0&pgwrap=n

Dear Mark,

For three years, PETA Asia has been working with authorities in the Philippines to help them find and prosecute the makers of horrific “crush” videos in which scantily clad girls (one as young as 12 years old) are filmed stepping, standing, and stomping on and slowly crushing animals—from the smallest of mice to large dogs who are tied down and helpless. Now PETA Asia’s efforts to shut down the makers of these sick fetish videos have resulted in a landmark ruling against those who torture and kill puppies, rabbits, and other animals.

Today, a Philippine court found Vicente and Dorma Ridon guilty of child abuse, animal welfare crimes, human trafficking, and wildlife-protection crimes and sentenced the pair to life imprisonment and a fine of more than 9 million pesos (US$198,000) each for their part in making the videos.

This huge victory began with a single compassionate person who stumbled upon these vile videos and took the time to report them to PETA Asia, which then worked with authorities to ensure that the Ridons were located, arrested, prosecuted, and ultimately sentenced for their crimes. In videos made by the Ridons, one dog is seen being skinned alive and another burned with a clothes iron. Rabbits are seen having their ears cut off or flailing and screaming as they are set on fire. One video shows a puppy crushed until the animal vomits up internal organs.

The Ridons’ long sentence is a warning to anyone involved in the vile crush video industry that there are grave consequences for harming animals.

Their sentence is also a powerful reminder of PETA Asia’s commitment to helping animals no matter how long it takes.

Thank you for all you do for animals in need. Your compassion is helping PETA and our international affiliates save animals’ lives.

Very truly yours,
Ingrid E. Newkirk

President
