Federal Budget Removes Wolves from the Endangered Species Act (ESA): President and Politicians Give a Great Present to Ranchers and Hunters

Yep, we’ve always known that most in congress hate animals, but now it should be clear that Obama does to. Well, I’ve stated this before, but now it’s clear. To make such a right wing move tells us who he is. Read this article and you’ll see: http://aldf.org/article.php?id=1691

If You Love Dogs You Need to Hate Romania: Just Watch this Video: The Killing of Cernavoda Dogs (2010) - Le uccisioni dei randagi a Cernavoda 2010

I guess the only difference between Romania and China is that (it appears) that they do not eat the dogs they torture. Who knows though…they just might.

I’ll let the video speak for itself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCIAJur9ksc

Stop Puppy Mills Facebook Page. And, the Article: Cesar Millan: Help Me Stop Puppy Mills. And, Missouri Back to Loving Puppy Mills

First, like this page to keep up on puppy mill news: http://www.facebook.com/StopPuppyMills?sk=wall

Right away you’ll see an article by Cesar Millan titled “Cesar Millan: Help Me Stop Puppy Mills.” If you do not see the link, go to http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/lifestyle/2011/04/21/cesar-millan-care-puppy-mills-help/

Cesar discusses how Missouri is back to loving puppy mills, mostly due to (wow surprise) business looking to kill a recently passed bill. I guess they, like Washington, feel that democracy is over rated. You can read more about that at http://www.kansascity.com/2011/04/14/2801542/missouri-bill-limits-lawsuits.html

Our Sick Society: Animal Abuser and Convicted Felon Michael Vick (Sick Vick) Might Get Cover of Madden 2012: Vote NO Now to Send a Message to Kids

Received this email today. I really think that even the possibility that a convicted felon can now be clear to be on the cover of games for kids to see shows that our culture cares not about what is right, but about money and fame. Unbelievable.

You can skip the message below and go straight to http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/feature/madden2012cover to vote NO now!

OK, I’ll post this again. Perhaps everyone has forgotten just how sick he really is. Well, if you’re one of those with a short memory, let me help remind you by reading out post: Forgotten How Sadistic Michael Vick is? “Jumper cables were clipped onto the ears of...dogs…connected to...batteries before…tossing...into water"

Oh, and here’s another one: “Vick did all that and more to his dogs, and even threw family pets into the pit with fighters and laughed while they were mauled, according to a witness who testified to federal investigators.”

So, as stated in the following text from an email I received, please go and vote now to make sure the the felon Sick Vick doesn’t get more glory and fame.

“We can't let the dog killer that is Mike Vick be honored by winning the 2012 Madden Football video game cover. Please, spread the word and have the people vote Vick off the cover by voting for Cleveland Browns running back Peyton Hillis. Send the link below to all of the people you know. Thank you for your help!”

Go straight to http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/feature/madden2012cover and Vote NO Now!

Wacko Religion at it Again: Iran Looks to Ban Dogs

Well, I should clarify: the religious zealots of Iran hate the "short-legged" and "holdable" dogs (as stated in the article linked to below). Oh yes, and this one: dog ownership "also poses a cultural problem, a blind imitation of the vulgar culture of the West." And let’s not forget that to them, dogs are "impure and dangerous animals…"

Of course, as the article asks, what happens should the wackos get their way? Another China? “If passed, the law would ultimately energize police and volunteer militias to enforce the ban systematically.”

600Million.org: Led by Alex Pacheco, a Non-Profit Committed to Ending the Widespread Suffering and Death within the Stray Dog Population of the World

I’ll be honest – I hadn’t known of 600Million.org. Don’t ask me why, as this is a great group.

We all know who Alex is, and we know he’s committed. So, this is a group I ask you all to support. I’ve posted in their mission below. But, visit their website at http://www.600million.org/ and support them.

600Million.org is a non-profit organization committed to ending the widespread suffering and death within the stray dog population around the world. We intend to do this by funding the development and global distribution of scientific formulas that can be fed to animals, and that will prevent the animals from being able to reproduce. This will dramatically reduce stray populations and prevent the birth of an estimated billion puppies each year, most of whom live under appalling conditions or are killed by "stray dog control methods" including poisoning, shooting, electrocution, beating to death, and worse.

1) To free virtually every humane society world wide of their most expensive problem -- animal overpopulation.

2) To prevent the deaths of the up to 55,000 people who die every year from rabies, most of whom are bitten by overpopulated rabid stray dogs.

3) To provide developing nations and low income individuals with a practical and affordable alternative to costly surgical animal sterilization.

4) To enable agencies to reduce their use of inferior animal overpopulation control methods, the most common being poison, which has many negative effects such as the unintentional killing of non targeted animals, as well as people.

As a Reminder of the Annual Baby Seal Killings: Here’s a Video of the Sickest. The King of Seal Killing: Hatem Yavuz

See what kind of people like to kill seals. You won’t believe that this guy - Hatem Yavuz. Probably top 10 worst scum in the world. He just loves to kill seals. Loves to bash them in the heads with clubs.

Idiotic Colorado Department of Agriculture Considering Request to Approve Use of Poison “Nighthawk” to Kill Prairie Dogs

Proof once again that any state or federal entity that has anything to do with wildlife or agriculture is fully run and indebted to industry and those who hate non-humans (hunters, ranchers, developers, rich guys, etc).

As stated on the petition, “Prairie dogs are a keystone species, meaning countless other animals rely on them. Animals like black-footed ferrets, swift fox and eagles rely on prairie dogs as a food source, so once they become poisoned by harmful pesticides like Nighthawk, they too meet a perilous fate.”

Video of Bob Parsons, CEO of Go Daddy Killing an Elephant: What You Can Do

I know I said I’d only run the story on the Annual Canadian Baby Seal Slaughter today but I just realized I forgot to post on this last week. I’m sure by now you’ve all heard of it. But, if not, now you know.

First, watch the video of Bob Parsons, CEO of Go Daddy Killing an Elephant

I’ve also embedded it below. Fing horrible. It goes without saying that anyone with these products needs to leave them!

On a related note, Bob Parsons, CEO of Go Daddy was also named Scummiest CEO of the Year. I think we all now know why.

I really don’t need to say much more. You all know what to do.

All You Need to Know About the Canadian Baby Seal Slaughter for 2011

Yep, they’re still bashing in the heads of baby seals in Canada with clubs.

I’m going to make it simple today and provide two links which provide information on the annual Canadian baby seal killing. Yes, I know there are other issues to address, but this sick sadistic annual practice is of such importance that I’d like to run on it for a day.

One link is a quick action page which will help you send a quick message stating your opposition to sick Canada. Urgent Action for Seals

The other link is an EXCELLENT commentary by the legendary Captain Paul Watson of the Sea Shepherd Society. Yes, the very group that actually put an end to Japanese whaling this year (and hopefully for the future). It is titled The Great Bloody White North: The Canadian Seal Slaughter and How I Really Feel About It!

If you want or need to know the facts behind this ridiculous mass species slaughter, then read his commentary. Here is a quick quote from that writing: “In the interest of appeasing the ecologically ignorant fishermen who have been impoverished by the gross management incompetence of the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), the government has set the highest kill quota ever imposed on the seals with an allowable slaughter of 468,200 harp, Grey, and hood seals. This is an increase of 148,200 over the ridiculously high kill quota of 330,000 seals in 2010.”

One Way to Help Animals in Aftermath of Japan Earthquake

We already know that Japan hates animals anyway. After all, they fuel the trade of dead baby seal parts from the annual Canadian seal slaughter. So of course they’re not going to help them. So, we need to.

NOTE: As I always say, I do not support any one group over another. I’m posting this because it’s the only one I’ve seen and it’s an important issue. If anyone knows of other groups working on this issue, feel free to let me know.

Did You Know that in Boulder, CO it is Legal for Landowners to Burn Prairie Dogs Alive? They Pump a Propane Mixture into Burrows then Ignite the Gas

And you thought you’d heard it all. Yep, you got it – a legal entity in CO ALLOWS people to light prairie dogs on fire! See, humans can always think of better ways to torture and kill.

As stated in the article, "Kids at the end of the cul-de-sac actually saw some prairie dogs on fire, running and screaming…"

The Year of Rights Killing: “Big Ag Wants To Make It a Crime to Expose Animal Abuse at Factory Farms”

And guess what: on the heels of WI killing workers’ rights and sending stray dogs to be tortured at universities, they’ll probably get this one too. I thought it was going to be better with the new administration. Guess not!
