Please consider calling and getting friends, family, and associates to make polite phone calls to Marado Sushi at 905-707-0546 and Gal’s Sushi at 905-597-0176, urging them to remove live animals from their menus.
At Marado Sushi in Toronto, (Just Google search the name for full details) PETA captured footage of a chef crudely hacking off the arms and legs of a flailing octopus.
The writhing limbs were then served to diners in a dish called “sannakji.” We filed a complaint with the Ontario SPCA, which—agreeing that octopuses are protected by cruelty-to-animals legislation—promptly informed Marado Sushi of the law.
But Marado Sushi continues to serve sannakji by chopping the heads off live octopuses before dicing up their limbs, and other restaurants continue to mutilate and serve live animals.
Others “prepare” live shrimp and lobsters by cutting off their tails and plating them next to their flailing heads—all for the sake of diners’ entertainment.
Please speak out against butchering and serving live animals.
Join us in urging Toronto restaurants to stop butchering and
serving live animals.
Together, we can prevent an enormous amount of suffering.

(The second incident was in France)
“A hunter was attacked by a boar on a trail hunt near Greifswald and seriously injured”.
During a trail hunt in the Greifswald area, a 50-year-old man was attacked by a boar after a gunshot and was seriously injured.
After the attack he plunged with his head into the lake where he was hunting and stayed there a few minutes with his head in the water.
He later died in the hospital, the animal escaped “.
“Villagers expel hunters and save deer.”
A hobby hunter got an important lesson in a small-town Oise (France) when his hunt ended on a garden plot.
Sweaty wet, with a bloody tongue and trembling joints, a stately deer stands in the middle of the garden. Surrounded by barking hounds, he fears for his life, trembling. The hunter responsible for this situation is some distance away.
Although the animal is in firing position, he does not shoot. The reason: About thirty people have stood between the panic animal and the hunter. The deer was on the run from the hunter’s aggressive dogs, who had previously shot the animal in the forest and wanted to finally settle it in the garden.
But he had the bill made without the host, because the thirty inhabitants did not want to release the animal.
Finally, the mayor of the village came and persuade the hunter to leave.
That’s what I call civil courage, we all have to learn that too.
Because the good news is rarely brought by chance, as in the first case, but they are mostly results of our commitment, our courage.
In any case, these two messages have brought much greater relaxation in my body today than the relax training should bring out.
Or better formulated: who needs relax after such beautiful news …

The Trump administration just pledged to open up 90 percent of America’s offshore areas to development as part of its new five-year plan for oil and gas drilling.
A reversal of President Obama’s offshore drilling ban,
this disastrous proposal threatens marine life and coastal communities and contributes to the ever-growing dangers of climate change.
Tell U.S. Department of the Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke to start putting the public good before polluter profits and protect our fragile coastal waters.
The Trump administration’s argument for coal only makes sense if you know nothing about how the electrical grid works. Watch this, and you’ll know more than they do.

When I saw the animals in this video, and how peaceful and responsible they are to each other, I suddenly realized what psychopaths around us live, who call themselves “hunters”, and who are nothing but mentally ill murderers.
I wish you all the best for the New Year 2018, and hope that together we can achieve victories for Animals in Morocco and Africa.
On the 27 December, we had a very productive meeting with partners (RAF) and Onssa (Moroccan OIE).
You can find the update on attached documents below.
One is in French, the 2sd is translated via google translation in English. Please forgive me if some words are not correct.
A 1st list of Professional associations has been sent by the Regional Representative of the Onssa to the RAF. We hope to get some of the decision makers at the next meeting that will take place on February the 10th in Rabat.
If you have any advices. We are aware that the challenge is absolutely huge but we keep on going, with your support.
A golden retriever tied up on the street suffered an excruciating death as a police officer bludgeoned the animal with a wooden club. As seen in horrifying video of the incident, the terrified dog yelped in pain and tried desperately to escape the repeated blows to the head.
Wildlife surveys from Kenya this year reveal that elephant populations in five key habitats have grown from 13,990 in 2012 to 14,642 in 2017. This promising rise in numbers is attributed to stricter laws, cooperation between border patrols and law enforcement, and an increase in international awareness and collaboration to combat the illegal ivory trade.
Good people dig up sidewalk to rescue pregnant dog
A broken piece of sidewalk was patched up before anyone knew there was a pregnant dog trapped underneath. The dog had crawled under the bricks before the opening was repaired. When concerned citizens realized she was stuck helplessly beneath the concrete, they tried to get help from the local rescue agency but were unsuccessful.
The heroes decided to take matters into their own hands and rescue the dog themselves. After the necessary bricks had been removed, reopening the hole the dog had entered through, the rescuers were still unable to see her. That’s when the man who’d removed the bricks took it upon himself to start digging in search of the distressed dog.
The Starfish Story: one step towards changing the world
Once upon a time, there was an old man who used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach every morning before he began his work. Early one morning, he was walking along the shore after a big storm had passed and found the vast beach littered with starfish as far as the eye could see, stretching in both directions.
Off in the distance, the old man noticed a small boy approaching. As the boy walked, he paused every so often and as he grew closer, the man could see that he was occasionally bending down to pick up an object and throw it into the sea. The boy came closer still and the man called out, “Good morning! May I ask what it is that you are doing?”
The young boy paused, looked up, and replied “Throwing starfish into the ocean. The tide has washed them up onto the beach and they can’t return to the sea by themselves,” the youth replied. “When the sun gets high, they will die, unless I throw them back into the water.”
The old man replied, “But there must be tens of thousands of starfish on this beach. I’m afraid you won’t really be able to make much of a difference.”
The boy bent down, picked up yet another starfish and threw it as far as he could into the ocean. Then he turned, smiled and said, “It made a difference to that one!”
