Jill and the fantastic crew at Animals Asia:

Dear Mark,

Wishing you a warm and joyful Christmas and a wonderful year ahead.

This has been our most challenging year to date, but with your kind support we’ve made some amazing progress. In 2014, we launched our most ambitious project so far – the transformation of a bear bile farm in Nanning, China into a sanctuary for the 130 bears inside.

To thank you for all your generous support over the past 12 months, I’d like to share with you a wonderful video of the bears enjoying their Christmas treat of fruity mince pies and coconuts!

Please go to my blog to watch the bears.

Spreading the message about the bears really does help them all – again a huge thank you for championing them at this time.

Netherlands: A Video Message From Our Friend Lesley At ‘Eyes On Animals’; Netherlands – Re Turkish Slaughterhouse Campaigning.

Posted on December 15, 2014 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

Netherlands

 

lesley

Hi all;

Before anything we must ask you please to ensure that you have signed the petition for Sasha and his dogs.

Full info at the petition which can be found at:

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/399/617/989/450-dogs-to-be-evicted-on-christmas-day-massive-international-protest/

 ————————————————–

I have had the pleasure of working with Lesley on some live transport investigation work in the past.

She is a wonderful person.

The following is a video link which has been set up by Lesley who runs ‘Eyes on Animals’ based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

The link to the video is: http://youtu.be/9ekCOdE_ehg

Mark has worked with Lesley several times before regarding the transport of live animals within the EU.  You can read more about the investigation report which was produced in 2010 by visiting  serbiananimalsvoice.com/about-us/    – scroll down past the many photos of livestock transporters at Dover, England – the section starts:

“During 2010 – In addition to the daily running of SAV, Mark worked with the same Dutch investigator friends at ‘Eyes on Animals’    http://eyesonanimals.com/   , as well as with Animals’ Angels   http://www.animals-angels.de/startseite,en_ORG.html  and PMAF   http://www.pmaf.org/  to produce a 125 page investigation report for the EU Legal Affairs team in Brussels, Members of the European Parliament (MEP’s) and UK Parliamentarians, a report which investigated live animal (calves) transport between certain, specific (EU) member states”

Mark and Lesley have put a lot of effort into the improvement of conditions for animals in transport within the EU.  Clearer signage for emergency rescue and the fitment of much larger access doors on all livestock trailers has also been a very important issue which has been campaigned for.

Here are a few links from the past:

The importance of good access to animals during road transport – also here you can access a link to the EoA report on the importance of access during transport:

A report on chicken welfare at loading and during transportation:  serbiananimalsvoice.com/2013/06/26/netherlands-excellent-investigation-reports-into-chicken-welfare-during-loading-and-transport-by-eyes-on-animals-nl/ 

Horrific conditions in the EU export of farm animals to Turkey:  serbiananimalsvoice.com/2011/07/27/eu-turkey-horrific-conditions-in-export-of-eu-farm-animals-to-turkey/

The message from Lesley to go with her new video re Turkish slaughterhouses is as follows:

Dear friends of Eyes on Animals

I have made a video-message that I would like to show you. The video is about our efforts in Turkey.

We regularly send our teams to Turkey to try and help improve the conditions inside the slaughterhouses there. And we have had really promising success, particularly with a change of attitude among the slaughter workers and Ministry of Agriculture inspectors.

In my video, I explain further about our work there. My dear colleagues and I would really appreciate it if you watch it, so that you can see how urgent our efforts are there and what impact we have had so far.

The link to the video is: http://youtu.be/9ekCOdE_ehg

I have to warn you, some of the footage is disturbing. But it shows what the animals have to go through, and what the inspectors from Eyes on Animals are trying to change.

When you have watched the video-message, please would you consider making a donation towards this project? We would so very much appreciate it, because we really need to continue working on this project for at least another 4 years in order to bring about long-lasting change. Together, we can really reduce the suffering of animals at Turkish slaughterhouses!

Serbia: 6/12/14 – Morgan, Tik and Tok News.

Posted on December 6, 2014 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

FELIX

MORGAN

Watch the video of Morgan here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avkp8fqZdTY&feature=youtu.be 

 Felix morgan 6 dec

Despite the very serious problems he has, Morgan is fighting with all of his might. His eyes look terrible, the skin around his eyes is already irritated due to the topical treatments he’s been having for months. His nasal blood vessels keep bursting whenever he sneezes, his cute little face is smudged with blood, but he eats, purrs and cuddles and his desire to live is tremendous. He continues being under treatment which has already lasted forever and everyone is doing everything that can possibly be done to help him.

TOK

Tok felix 6 dec

Little Tok is holding on, she is still eating RC Recovery canned food and she’s begun to eat dry cat food as well. Her belly is still swollen and she is being given Lasix among other drugs. She is sweet and nice, enjoys attention, loves to be cuddled and even though she’s not out of the woods yet, hopefully these are signs that she’s getting better.

http://www.youcaring.com/pet-expenses/help-the-feline-residents-of-cat-shelter-felix/161828

 

TIK

Tik felix 6 dec

Tik has improved significantly, he doesn’t have a fever anymore but he’s still being given antibiotics through injections. He sleeps a lot, I’m guessing this weather makes him sleepy but he is also eating and playing and he’s already mastered walking on three legs.

Nepal: Gadhimai Latest – “The issue here is not just one festival, but also the direction people of Nepal and the human race is going”

Please go to ‘Home’ on the top tab and then just scroll down to find several very recent articles we have covered on this brutality by people wanting to be viewed by the world as ‘civilised’ !!.  Some posts include information and contact details for all global Neplalese embassies should you wish to contact them.

Saturday 29th November

The slaughter continues

All photographs here via CIWF in London.

From the CIWF undercover investigator:

“We went towards the stadium and the smell hit us from some distance, the whole area was absolutely stinking, people were covering their mouths with fabric to try and mask it. One man emerged from the main stadium gate and vomited as we walked in.

The entire stadium ground was littered with severed buffalo heads and entrails, some of the stomachs had burst open spilling their contents over the ground which was covered in bloodstains and flies buzzed everywhere. It was a pretty gruesome experience, stepping over heads, tails, and animal guts strewn everywhere, with the blood-soaked red scarves which the animals had been wearing during the last, stressful moments of their lives, abandoned on the ground. As we left the main arena another helpless buffalo was led in and then decapitated”.

Oliver Bear – News From ‘Animals Asia’. Farewell Brave Oliver.

Posted on November 18, 2014 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

Farewell brave Oliver bear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me2Ezr4QygU#t=10  

Dear Mark,

It’s the news we’ve all been dreading – Oliver, our beautiful broken bear has died.

This much-loved and inspirational bear, who survived 30 years in a bile cage before his dramatic rescue, has died at our Chengdu rescue centre.

After four and a half blissfully happy years with us, Oliver had reached the end of the road, his condition deteriorating over the past few days. On Wednesday, our vets made the decision to euthanise him – and offer him a peaceful, respectful end.

Oliver died surrounded by those who loved him dearly – and with the sweet taste of strawberry sauce in his mouth.

This brave bear’s incredible will to survive and the joy he showed in the simplest of pleasures inspired so many to join our campaign. I know how much Oliver meant to you too, so we’ve put together a special tribute page in his memory. Click on his image to view.

Bear hugs,
Jill Robinson MBE Dr med vet hc
Founder and CEO

https://www.animalsasia.org/uk/media/news/news-archive/november-12-declared-annual-oliver%E2%80%99s-day.html

Animal welfare charity Animals Asia has announced it will mark November 12 each year as Oliver’s Day – following the death of inspirational brown bear Oliver.

Oliver captured the hearts of people around the world having endured 30 years on Chinese bear bile farms. He was kept in a tiny cage and subject to daily bile extractions for use in traditional Chinese medicine.

When rescued by Animals Asia in 2010, Oliver’s life was saved by roadside surgery to remove his gall bladder. Vets were shocked to find a metal coil embedded deep inside the brown bear’s organ.

Following news of his death, Animals Asia has been inundated with messages of condolence with supporters, volunteers and staff past and present sharing their Oliver memories and what he meant to them.  Many came to the movement for the first time having heard his story.

 

SAV Comment

RIP Oliver – now free from the bile industry and the suffering you endured through it at the hands of the human species for 30 years.  Finally freed to spend over four years with other humans at AA who cared so much about you and your welfare.

Loved in the end !

Close down everything to do with the bile industry – free all the bears !
