For ten years Save the Dogs and other Animals has been calling for the closure of this facility, where about 150 dogs and an unknown number of cats live in terrible conditions, because of dirt, lack of food and veterinary care.
The kennel is located in the poorest district of the town, where it feeds the stray animals (dogs are not neutered) and sickens of mange and distemper owned and stray animals. The City of Cernavoda revoked the concession of land to Spike and asked our association to take care of animals evicted, which Save the Dogs has guaranteed even if we are going through a difficult financial period.

This petition aims to support the decision of the council, which was made ​​in the interest of the animals and of all citizens.

Thanks again — together we’re making change happen,

Save the Dogs and other Animals

Chiudiamo il canile lager Spike! Shut down Spike kennel in Cernavoda! Adapostul Spike trebuie inchis!

Chiudiamo il canile lager Spike!

Da dieci anni Save the Dogs and other Animals chiede la chiusura di questa struttura, dove circa 150 cani e un numero sconosciuto di gatti vive in condizioni terribili, tra sporcizia, mancanza di cibo e di cure veterinarie. Il canile si trova nel quartiere più povero della città, dove alimenta il randagismo (i cani non sono sterilizzati) e fa ammalare di rogna e di cimurro animali di proprietà e randagi.
Il Comune di Cernavoda ha revocato la concessione del terreno all’associazione Spike e ha chiesto alla nostra associazione di prendersi cura degli animali sotto sfratto, cosa che Save the Dogs farà nonostante il periodo difficilissimo dal punto di vista finanziario. Questa petizione intende sostenere la decisione dell’amministrazione comunale, che è stata fatta nell’interesse degli animali e di tutta la cittadinanza. Tornare sui propri passi sarebbe un grave errore.

Adapostul Spike trebuie desfintat!

Timp de zece ani Save the Dogs solicită închiderea acestui adapost, unde aproximativ 150 de câini și un număr necunoscut de pisici  trăiesc în condiții groaznice, datorita mizeriei si lipsa de îngrijire.
Canisa este situata în cel mai sărac cartierul orașului, unde “produce” mai multi caini fara stapan (animalele adapostite nu sunt castrate) și imbolnaveste de raie animalele cu și fără stăpân.
Primarie Cernavodă a revocat concesiunea  terenurilui și a cerut asociației noastre să aibă grijă de animalele evacuăte, ceea ce Save the Dogs va face chiar daca ne aflam intr-o perioada foarte grea.
Această petiție urmărește să sprijine decizia consiliului, care a fost făcută în interesul animalelor și a tuturor cetățenilor.

USA: Please Take Action To Defend America’s Wolves Now.

Hello Friends of All God’s Creatures,

I just got off the phone with Governor Steve Bullock’s Secretary. She is very nice and appreciates our respectful calls. She recommends either calling or writing & emails. Either way the Governor is new and wants to hear all sides on this issue. I asked her specifically if the Governor understands what gut shooting is, and the torturous death that our Wolves face, and she assured me that he is aware of this!

See below for the needed information to contact his office. I Hope & Pray that we can stop this Horrific & Torturous Killing! If everyone would call or email…we can make a difference. This is what peaceful activism is all about! It is only through Love & Compassion that we can change the destructive behaviors of humans, and properly be concerned stewards of our planet.

Thanks in advance for your help in this Critical Matter, and please pass this information on! I also have attached a word doc of various folks who have chimed in on this issue, which hopefully will give you some talking/writing ideas. The Wolf is a Beautiful & Important part of our Ecology…once the predators are gone, there will be no natural balance in nature!
peace,
rich.

This week’s WOLF DEFENDER ACTION is to contact Montana’s new Governor, Steve Bullock. Please be respectful and polite. Gov. Bullock is brand new to his position and has taken no action to hurt wolves.

Ask Governor Bullock to put an end to the persecution and massacre of wolves in Montana. Ask him to veto Montana House Bill 73. Ask the governor to be the first governor in the Rocky Mountains to show compassion, decency and respect for living wolves, in Montana and throughout the Rockies. Ask Gov. Bullock to acknowledge the indispensable and positive role, wolves and every other natural predator performs in every healthy ecosystem. Ask him to protect America’s wolves.

Here are three ways to contact Governor Steve Bullock:
(Please be polite and respectful
and consider doing all three. I was told he reads letters that are mailed to him directly.)

America’s wolves must be put back on the Endangered Species List. They are beautiful and are being senselessly slaughtered. My eleven year old daughter cried all day about this injustice. She loves the beauty and intelligence of the wolf. Please act and stop this slaughter of wolves immediately!
— Mary of Oklahoma

We have doomed the wolf not for what it is but for what we deliberately and mistakenly perceive it to be: the mythologized epitome of a savage, ruthless killer — which is, in reality, not more than the reflected image of ourselves. We have made it the scapewolf for our own sins.
— Farley Mowat, from the preface of the 1993 editon of his book, Never Cry Wolf 

 ____________________________________________
  
Montana is a big and beautiful state in the Northern Rocky Mountains of the United States. But during the past two years Montana’s politicians have allowed a minority of their more violent and heartless citizens, and like-minded others from outside the state, to persecute and kill over 300 innocent and ecologically vital wolves that lived within the state. In 2011, Montana’s own Division of Fish, Wildlife and Parks estimated the total wolf population there to be about 550 wolves. 

There is a glimmer of hope, of positive change for wolves in Montana, and for all of us who respect and admire wolves and want them protected. Montana has a new Governor, Steve Bullock, who campaigned with reason and decency. He did not pander to the wolf haters and kept an open door to the many wolf defenders who met him.

Now, Governor Bullock has the opportunity to demonstrate right from the start that he is indeed a man and a leader who respects ecology, healthy ecosystems and the importance of natural predators, including wolves.   

The Montana House of Representatives recently passed House Bill 73. This perverted bill is now before the Montana State Senate. It is intended to accelerate the torture and massacre of the remaining wolves in Montana. If passed and signed by Gov. Bullock, it will allow each sport killer to kill more wolves, reduce the cost of out of state licenses to kill wolves, allow sport killers to use electronic calls of wolf pups in distress to attract concerned wolves, allow killing of wolves on the perimeter of Yellowstone National Park with no buffer zone and on and on. The devil himself could have written this bill.

The facts speak for themselves:
There are approximately 2,500,000 cattle in Montana. In 2011, just 74 cattle were confirmed to be taken by wolves. 74 out of 2,500,000. That tiny tiny number is statistically zero. But, pathetic cattlemen continue to spread hysterical lies about wolves killing their  non-native cattle in numbers too numerous to count. These same cattlemen rely on the ignorance and apathy of the general public, so they can continue their demonization and slaughter of America’s native wolves and coyotes and mountain lions and bison and wild horses and prairie dogs and anything else that moves.

As for elk, the principle prey of wolves in the Rockies, Montana had 90,000 elk before wolves returned to their native homeland in Montana. Today with wolves back on the land, the state of Montana estimates the current elk population at 140,000. More wolves equals  more elk and the elk are much healthier now that wolves are keeping them on their toes, just as nature intended.

Wolves are vital, innocent, highly social, intelligent and family-oriented beings. It is humans that are the mass killers of wolves and every other animal they can shoot, trap, poison and destroy. It is ignorant and violent humans who must be managed and restrained, and who must finally learn to live on this Earth respectfully and with compassion for non-human beings who have as much right as humans to live and prosper across the planet we share.

Great News – You Did It Again – The Baby Elephant Calves (from the wild) Have Been Stopped Going To A Chinese Zoo !

AA return to wild

You did it again folks ! – the elephant calves have been saved from the ordeal of spending their lives in a Chinese zoo.

Our recent post –

Dear Mark,

The five wild-caught elephant calves due to be sent from Zimbabwe to Chinese zoos have been saved from a life of misery. They have been sent to a national park in Zimbabwe to be rehabilitated back into the wild.

Thank you for playing your part in this story and helping to convince the Zimbabwe authorities that these elephants deserve to live in the wild, not in captivity.

Thank you for supporting this campaign.

Animal Welfare Director

PS: This victory is bittersweet, as sadly four wild-caught elephant calves arrived in China in November 2012. One of these has already died. Animals Asia, in partnership with Humane Society International, is offering advice and support to the zoos housing the remaining three elephants in the hope that we can improve their living conditions

Dear Mark,

It’s with great, great pleasure (and butterflies in my stomach) that I write to you of Prime Minister’s Nguyen Tan Dung decision to save Animals Asia’s sanctuary in Vietnam from the eviction threat that has been hanging over us.

We have just been informed by the Vietnamese government that the Prime Minister has concluded that the rescue centre’s operation should be maintained, and that construction on the project’s second phase should continue – honouring his original agreement with Animals Asia.

This decision ensures that the 104 bears living at the centre will keep their home, 77 of our local Vietnamese staff will keep their jobs, and Animals Asia, which funds and operates the centre, will be able to continue with plans to expand the sanctuary.

We have renewed faith in the Vietnamese government’s commitment to work with Animals Asia to end bear bile farming.

From the Animals Asia team, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you have done to help us win this battle. We share this victory with you because it was your voice and your support that got us here.

We remain strongly committed to ending bear bile farming in Vietnam – and we’re counting on your support to help the many bears still suffering on farms.

With much gratitude and bear hugs,

Jill

Animals Asia Elephants

We have just had the following URGENT ACTION request from our friends at Animals Asia.

Take a look at the disgusting conditions in which this animal is being kept.  Do you want another six elephant calves torn from their families in the wild to end up suffering like this purely as a simple ‘attraction’ at a Chinese zoo ?

– If not, then please contact the Zimbabwe authorities to protest about them possibly allowing this by using the e mail links given below.

Time is very short – there are just a few days left at most –

***PLEASE ACT NOW AND SEND YOUR COMPLAINT****

Thank You – SAV.

——————————————————————————————-

We need your help urgently. Within the next few days the Zimbabwe authorities will decide whether to transport four to six elephant calves, captured from the wild and removed from their families, to zoos in China.

One of four Zimbabwe calves sent to Chinese zoos in November 2012 has already died due to the stress of capture, transport and captivity.

The standard of animal care at Chinese zoos remains far from satisfactory with facilities unable to provide for the needs of these baby elephants.

These animals were born in the wild and they belong in the wild.

Please urgently email the Zimbabwe environment minister, and the national parks authority using the contact emails below.

Please politely request that the elephant calves are not sent to China and the authorities work with conservation organisations in Zimbabwe to rehabilitate these orphan calves back into the wild.

SAMPLE LETTER TO SEND

Dear:

Minister Nhema, Mr Edson Chidziya, Mr George Pangeti and Dr Hilary Madzikanda

I am writing to express my deep concern about the transfer of wild-caught elephant calves from Zimbabwe to Chinese zoos.

Elephant calves have a very close bond with their mothers and with their female relatives. The removal of calves from their herds in the wild into captivity is devastating. The young elephants suffer severe, unrelenting stress, which affects their physical and psychological development. Many calves die.

The standard of animal care at Chinese zoos remains far from satisfactory, with facilities unable to provide for the behavioral and physiological needs of these animals. Following the transfer of four calves in November 2012, one has already died at Taiyuan Zoo. The others are likely to become ill soon.

It is my understanding that more wild-caught elephant calves are awaiting transportation to China. I respectfully appeal to you to stop the transfer and to work with Zimbabwean conservation organisations to rehabilitate these calves back into the wild.

Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is the original title of a novella written by the famous Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson that was first published in 1886. The work is commonly known today as The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, or simply Jekyll & Hyde.It is about a London lawyer named Gabriel John Utterson who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll,and the evil Edward Hyde.

The work is commonly associated with the rare mental condition often spuriously called “split personality”, referred to in psychiatry as dissociative identity disorder, where within the same body there exists more than one distinct personality.In this case, there are two personalities within Dr Jekyll, one apparently good and the other evil; completely opposite levels of morality. The novella’s impact is such that it has become a part of the language, with the very phrase “Jekyll and Hyde” coming to mean a person who is vastly different in moral character from one situation to the next.

His Facebook page – actually that of his wife – maybe he is trying to keep a lower profile:

http://www.facebook.com/barbulescu.florentina.5

Or log onto Facebook and do a search for ‚Barulescu Florentina’ – she will be identified as being from Brasov, Romania.  This is the wife of the mass dog killer.

The Portrait of a Mass Dog Catcher and Killer … Barbulescu Flavius from Brasov, Romania

Barbulescu Flavius Dumitru, the Dog Catcher in Chief in BRASOV, is fascinated by the “big numbers”.

To kill a “big number“ of dogs (not less than 30,000, of which over 8,000 only in 2008 and 2009, since the Euhtanasia is BANNED) and, as he stipulated at a Conference for The Protection of Animals in München (where he went on funds given by some associations) that he killed a big number (26,000 until 2008) which appalled everybody.

It looked for him that Germans do not understand the symbolism of the “big number”, that they feel like one dead animal is an act of cruelty but a “big number” ( 26,000 -3 0,000) dead animals are only a statistic.

Barbulescu Flavius Dumitru is an “ ideological “ dog catcher.

He is not content with torturing and killing dogs, he wants to convince the nation that the torture and the killing of dogs if not a simple Dog Catching act…it is a “science” a “doctrine” a “way”…

This is why he speaks (like a zoo-technician) about “heads” when he refers to dogs, and seals all declarations (as stupid as it might be) with the formula “based on the legislation in force”, and continuously propagates his inept statements in the local media, invoking “the state institutions“ he presents him self always in his uniform and hates the word “dog catcher“, which he wants to eliminate from the Romanian Language.

In fact, he doesn’t even manage a “dog catching“ service, he manages the Public Service for the Management of Animals (SPGA – Brasov).

He does not have in his subordination any “dog catcher”….only “inspectors” whose brains he washed by demonstrating them “scientifically“ that dog catchers do not exist anymore, they disappeared like the dinosaurs, long time ago.

Barbulescu Flavius is an accomplished manager. “The Public Service“ which he manages is located in a luminous centre, modern furniture, laminated flooring, a desk for the Director, a bright label with his name on the door, air conditioning, computers, a secretary with eye glasses (wife of an “ inspector”) an exotic plant and a jurist who uselessly wears the same uniform as the dog catchers.

As for the Dog shelter which he manages, a filthy den (scraped in a former pig farm, with humid area, darken, smelling like death, without any surgery room, without recovery room, without running water) he got “brilliant certificates“ and authorizations: ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.

Barbulescu Flavius likes the army, the police and the fire fighters and he likes to believe that dog catching is a kind of urban guerilla and he wants to be seen as the “generous commander“.

He dresses up his dog catchers in military uniforms reminiscent of the “blackshirts” the “ brown shirts” or the “green shirts”, they get pins and they have guns with tranquilizers and vials with Ketamine (a risk drug); he says nothing when the “boys” drink during the working program, and he blesses them with lots of gasoline coupons.
From time to time he lets the “inspectors” play games on the secretary’s computers and gives them some whisky and approves them to party with expired sausages received for free from the supermarkets (of course for the dogs).

Black SUV Mitsubishi L200
Barbulescu Flavius has built a beautiful villa for him self, drives an Black SUV Mitsubishi L200,(given to him by the Local City council) to which he can attach or detach (based on how discrete he wants to be) some magnetic yellow plates (112 SGA) and until 2010 he managed to bring his entire family in the service he manages. His father (retired) was the “chief inspector”, his father-in-law “care taker” in the shelter and his brother ( or a short time, because he did not liked it) “inspector”.

Between 2001 and 2010, when they killed around 500 dogs per month, Barbulescu Flavius could rely on the “veterinarian specialized personnel“: The veterinarian SABAU CRISTIAN and the veterinary technician MOLDOVAN DORIN. Sabau Cristian is an “innocent character“ he is about 53 years old, of which 10 were spent studying at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, never castrated, never treated any animal, he “identified in the shelter a “miniature Saint-Bernard” and when asked why he never treated any dog he used to shout : “don’t you understand that the City Hall has no money, sir, has nooooo money“. Basically Mr. Sabau was introduced in the “system” by ENACHE DORIN, the Director of the DSVSA (Direction of Sanitary-Veterynary Authority Brasov) to give Barbulescu Flaviusa PUPPET, to invent diagnostics and to sign the so-called “euthanasia papers “.

The veterinary technician MOLDOVAN DORIN, Barbulescu’s most trusted buddy, his number one accomplice, has fun castrating piglets without anaesthesia (for his buddies who did not wan tto pay a veterinarian) he falsified many times the diagnostics, he himself shoved the syringe with T61 in the hearts of thousands of “heads” (also instead of the veterinarian) and of course, he also builds a two stories house, for himself as any dog catcher.

Before the “euthanasia” Barbulescu Flavius, gave those 30,000 “heads”/animals, the “chance” to die by them selves: he let them suffocate in the “coffins on wheels” of the SPGA ( where they struggled to breath through some wholes done with a borer let then starve to death for weeks, without water for days, no vaccines, no treatment after being exposed to the viruses in his filthy shelter, he let them bite one another and let the wounds get infected, let them give birth in the mud and eat their puppies. And because most of them stubbornly decided not to die, he gave the order to the “veterinary personnel” to kill them, and then if they still have some time left, and ink in their pens, to diagnose then in bulk, with his 4 favourite “incurable diseases” :

– mamita (instead of Mastitis),
– mange (demodicie …here any skin condition)
– chronic enteritis
– casexis

The “Professional veterinary personnel “ subordinated to Barbulescu Flavius, took pride with “remarkable performances”.

SABAU CRISTIAN said that he managed to euthanise 131–210 animals in 3-4 hours (number for which any other veterinarian would need at least 11-17 hours) and he also identified some animals with unique and unrepeatable ailments amongst those caught by the “inspectors”.

By example: he found some males suffering of MASTITIS (inflammation of the mammary glands) some puppies suffering of senility …and some living corpses.

Fearing that these diseases could be transmitted rapidly to other animals, they rushed the dead animals to PROTAN to be incinerated.

At 39 years old, Barbulescu Flavius, speaks very proudly about his “career”. He looks very nostalgic and with envy in the same time at the photo of Simona Panaitescu (the goddess of the Romanian dog catching, with 140,000 dogs killed in her career) photo which is placed on his desk like the Icon of the Virgin Mary, he meditates upon the glorious times between 2002 and 2009 (when he massacred 500 dogs per month, sustains that SPGA Brasov is most efficient service in the country, that he caught and killed dogs from 5 counties (Brasov, Covasna, Harghita, Mures, Suceava, Alba) when he had contracts with tens of towns and when he became the only hope Scripcaru (Mayor of Brasov) had to a “bite” from the “budgetary excedent” (he brought 130,000 Lei/year, only 10% from what he spent, but still…)

To his close ones he unveils his plans for the future. He dreams of killing dogs for 25 more years, and also to expand his actions in 10 more counties and to retire after a massa euthanasia of at least 250 dogs.

Barbulescu Flavius cannot sleep also because of his “legislator vocation”. HE IS THE AUTHOR of the original and countless modified versions, supplemented with the most inept amendments of the Regulation number 66/1999 “about the ownership of domestic animals and birds“ in Brasov (by far the most illegal and unconstitutional and inept By-Law from the city council in Brasov in the last 15 years.

rom8

But Barbulescu Flavius did not stop here.

He felt the inner impulse to go farther and he went in place where no other dog catcher ever dreamt to set foot. He got next to the Prefect of Bucharest Mihai Atanasoaei din Senator Iulian Urban.

Surrounded by these “mentors” Barbulescu Flavius has discovered the “call of the law” and in the vicinity with Urban he understood that the Law for the Protection of Animals had to beabrogated, urgently, because it bans the euthanasia and because it transforms the cruelty against animals in infraction…Atanasoaie “inspired “ him to understand that the “Law for the management of strays needed to be “updated” (to neutralize the “curse” of the ban of the euthanasia) and “improved” by allowing the “hack” of dogs after 2-3 days if they could be deemed: aggressive, sick, unrecoverable, dangerous, unidentified, identified, left free, lost, stolen etc), and also to “kill” the adoption (in order to maintain as many animals as possible in shelters as “raw material “ for the profitable process of euthanasia/incineration) and to boost the powers to the troglodyte dog catching services giving them the right to FINE from 5,000= to 10,000 lei for all sort of abhorrent things, some of which with no connection to the law, what so ever.

Barbulescu Flavius detests the civil society, detests the associations for the protection of animals about which he says that they have NO right to control him not to monitor him, especially if they have no intention to feed the animals in his shelters, to treat them, to help him euthanise them and to accept inept protocols from which only he has something to gain.

BARBULESCU FLAVIUS has broken all the laws.

There are none to have escaped from being stumped upon. From the tens of laws and regulations which intersected his activities, until today he has committed at least one infraction every three days and at least three contraventions per day.

– he broke the law regarding animals from areas declared with rabies infestation, by taking them to the shelter in Stupini-Brasov;
– he made false declarations (in many penal cases) …etc, etc, etc

Barbulescu Flavius has 8 legal complains filed against him and tens of other reports, at the DSVSA, ANSVSA and Police.

Yet, his superiors (he dwarfs from the garden of the mayor Scripcaru – who also are members of the municipal council) never gave any sign, at least for the eyes of the public, to even ask him what is going on at the SPGA.

Barbulescu Flavius is a media monster, which has the local media at his fingers tips. By example, if he wants to call a press conference to announce everybody that his “inspectors” will change the winter uniforms with the summer ones, there will be at least a dozen of “grasshoppers” from Rtt, Realitatea, TVS , Antena 1 Brasov or BB, ready to sip his words.

Every time the DVS decides to show us the “fox with rabies”(which is it said to have been kept in their freezers for ten years) and they want now to declare quarantine, in less than one hour, the space around him is full with microphones, camera, notebooks, and inept question.

In the last ten years since the dog catcher in chief has erupted in the local media, tens of journalists flock around him, groomed him and embalmed him like the mummy of Tutankhamon and in the same time have destroyed his enemies.

These are a few of his journalists followers, fans of Barbulescu Silviu:
Liviu Cioineag,
Vifor Rotar,
Dan Ghita,
Paul Petrosel,
Silvana Enache sau
Daniel Giurma.

Barbulescu Silviu believes with ardour in authorities and in their unshakable commitment to save him from all his foul tricks.

He has confidence in Commissioner MIRCEA POPA “boys” and in the Director Enache Dorin Valter’s“ inspectors “ who know how to white-wash “responsibly” the traces of his frauds, and to let the proves disappear between fingers, like magicians and then they put on all files the well known NUP.

He hopes that the prosecutors and the judges will confirm the Not-Guilty stamps put on his files, based on the “benefit of the doubt “in dubio pro reo” as if it was visible from afar that this “doubt” is the constant refusal of the police to put him under a serious investigation.

And to dissipate all doubts that there is a doubt” which gives them advantage, Barbulescu Flavius and Moldovan Dorin, polish their boots, iron their uniforms and come in front of the judge, grave but dignified, like war veterans who after a life of sacrifices, came to be humiliated and insulted by some pranks.

The German ARD TV station has shown a documentary on Dec. 8th 2012 about the machinations of Romanian dog catchers titled “a dog’s life in (Ro) shelters)”

Mr. Liviu Cocos – MAYOR OF PREDEAL

Adrian Ioan Vestea – MAYOR OF RASNOV

Representatives of the Municipality of BRASOV

Mr. Cocos, Mr. Vestea, Representatives of Brasov Council, Ladies and Gentlemen MEPs,

finally now, after months of this tug-of-war between your municipalities and animal welfare advocates it seems the decision on your part to do away, no matter what, with the unfortunate strays in Predeal, Brasov and Rasov, in preparation for the European Youth Olympic Festival in Brasov, has been taken.

What awaits these animals is not hard to guess, given the wealth of material collected by Romanian as well as German welfare organisations over years now. The German BMT particularly has been very active, and has for a long time – and unsuccessfully, it seems – lobbied for a Humane approach.

(Ladies and Gentlemen MEPs – I would ask you to remember the following information: https://serbiananimalsvoice.com/2012/12/15/romania-exposed-dogcatchers-pocketing-eu-animal-welfare-provided-funds-for-themselves-why-animals-are-left-to-starve-and-die-the-eu-politicians-must-act/)

Our information, which no doubt is correct, is that teams have already been sent out to collect strays wherever found (to do what with them???). Indeed, as the animals are proven to be non-aggressive – and this is backed up by the Locals – a reason for this rash action other than the EYOWF had to be found. People in the street and local residents have been called upon by teams with prepared lists to put their signature to a demand for the dogs’ removal for reasons of their supposed, and entirely fabricated, dangerousness to the public. Some have signed, many – seeing this for what it is – did not.

Locals have indeed approached the animal activists and small initiatives in their area with desperate pleas to save at least the puppies from the dog catchers and the cruel fate that awaits them. If they are not inhumanely killed right out then they will, in all likelihood, disappear in certain holding facilities – lingering in mud, their own faeces, without food or care – dying a slow and agonizing death, forgotten and yet at the same time earning the owners of these facilities huge sums from the Romanian, and EU taxpayer’s pocket. This practice is well documented.

So.

What will it be? Will you persist in flouting EU regulations on the Humane treatment of Strays by getting rid of these poor animals for yet another sporting event? I think we’ve seen way too much in recent years of this. Sport means fair play, and once again a hosting city of such an event must be reminded of its responsibility for the most vulnerable and helpless of its inhabitants.

So I remind you now.

The animal welfare movement has learned a hard lesson during the Greek and Chinese Olympics, during the Ukrainian football EM in 2012, to name the most prominent and worst “derailments” in that respect.

The butchers bill in all these cases has been no cause for pride for the hosting countries and cities and stands as a lasting monument to the Human moral and ethical responsibility towards the weakest being thrown out the window by blind greed, ignorance and a sadistic brutality that defies description.

Will the names of Brasov, Predeal and Rasnov be added next to that list of failure? Is that what you want?

I would like to assure you that we have indeed learnt a lesson and you will, no doubt, benefit from the consequences, should you continue on this path. There is every support from welfare organisations and indeed the European Union for you to fall back on – offers have been and are repeatedly made – to solve the “stray problem” humanely. I demand of you to put aside your medieval approach that has NEVER worked in decades now, as the numbers of animals in the streets clearly are testament to!

Any more massacres will not be tolerated. It has to stop. Now.

Sincerely,

(Your name and Nationality)

Tell the UK Government to Get Serious about Ocean Conservation

Petition Link:

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/463/393/788/tell-the-uk-government-to-get-serious-about-ocean-conservation/?z00m=20472582

  • Target: The Government of the United Kingdom
  • Sponsored by: Judith B.

On the 13th of December, the UK government promised to designate 31 new sites as marine conservation zones. This sounds like great news for ocean ecosystems and the industries that depend upon them. In fact it is anything but.

The government’s own scientific advisors actually said that 127 conservation zones are needed. 59 of the proposed sites are under severe threat, with action required immediately.

The argument for this very weak approach to ocean conservation is to help industry, in particular fisheries. The problem with this argument is, of course, if you don’t conserve ocean ecosystems properly, there won’t be any fisheries. Rejecting expert advice in this manner is bad news for ocean wildlife, fish stocks and the economy.

Tell the UK government to stop basing crucial policies on exceedingly short-term economic and political gains and start listening to marine scientists.

Petition wording – We the undersigned ask that you revise your marine conservation zone plans. Protecting ocean ecosystems is crucial, not least for the fishing industry, and the plans as they stand are nowhere near enough. Protecting 31 areas by the end of 2013 might seem like a step in the right direction, but not when it involves the rejected of the other 96 advised.  The current plans are completely insufficient to protect our country’s ocean wildlife and fish stocks.
