Chickens burned alive in China because of the bird flu ''outburst''... Absolutely outrageous! Please, do something!

These horrors happen because of greedy humans breeding and using these animals for ''profit'' and because of those who buy animal products. If everyone ate an animal-products-free diet, and didn't use animals for any other purpose, none of these horrors would happen. Signing petitions can sometimes make a difference, yes.

NNCC Wild Horse Adoption Event a Success (reprint from Horseback Magazine,)

On Saturday May 18 the Northern Nevada Correctional Center in Carson City Nevada held an adoption/auction of wild horses trained by inmates.

The wild horses trained by inmates were taken from Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ranges. All wild horses were adopted through a bidding process and fall under the requirements of BLM adoptions.

Let me introduce to you a brave dog named "Da Huang". He is not an expensive pure-breed dog; nor he is any award-winning celebrity dog. He is but a straying dog in China that was abandoned by his owner......a lovely, caring dog who long for a home.

In his 33-day journey, he helped lost souls with his caring eyes; he encouraged strangers who lost faith....in this journey, he loved and be loved; he save and be saved; he also ran into a number of life-threatening challenges.....

This week NBC news covered the story of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) wild horse and burro program. Laura Leigh, founder of WildHorseEducation.org, spent a few days with the producer and opened up her library of more than 500 days of attendance to roundups in the last three years alone. Leigh also supplied NBC with court rulings, BLM documents and vet reports.

"Now, you can't drink water from the river. It's too dangerous," Ladouceur told The Huffington Post, taking a break from chopping wood. "We're seeing deformed fish, which I'd never seen in my whole entire years. And something in that water is killing the muskrats."

Last Thursday, on April 18, a student at the Alberta College of Art and Design brought a live chicken into the school’s cafeteria. In front of spectators, the student slowly cut the throat of the writhing and screaming bird. The student proceeded to bleed the chicken out, remove the head and feathers and drop the bird into a pot–all under the guise of performance art.

This week the legal actions in federal court for Triple B and Jackson Mountain move forward in Discovery.  Leigh and her attorney, Gordon Cowan, continue the actions that began in August of 2011 at the Triple B roundup and then amended in June of 2012 to add Jackson Mountain.

On July 20th the BLM began the Triple B roundup in Ely/Elko Nevada.

Have you ever wondered how much it costs the Federal government to keep the horse slaughter industry operational in Canada?

Thanks to the efforts of MP Alex Atamanenko, we now have the answer.  Inspections enabling the slaughter of our horses to continue are costing over one million dollars annually.

As a taxpayer, whether you want to or not, you are helping to fund this industry.
