Tell the Serbian government to stop ignoring animal cruelty! - The Petition Site




Killed a dog who nursed puppies!
Unknown persons, or more of them, killed in Zaje%u010Dar female dog while she was nursing puppies. Disturbing photo of puppies who still sucking dead mother was sent by reader of magazine "Alo!", angry because government authorities doesn%u2019t deal with the problem of animal abuse in this town in eastern Serbia.
After magazine "Alo!" published the story and wrote few articles about cruel capture and abuse of stray dogs in Zaje%u010Dar, there editorial office start to get e-mails from animal lovers who sent photos of abused animals. They claimed all photos they send are authentic and from this city, also demanding that public be alert to this brutality on animals through medias, in order to finally ends with it.
Among last photos are images of dead female dog and capture dogs in filthy cages in the public pound.
"From my window I was watching how fleecers were catching dogs in Kraljevica, suburb of Zaje%u010Dar. Sometimes they have to run after dogs, in other causes they simply put wire loop on a neck of incessant animal. Above that, dogs are desperate trying to free themselves while wire loop is cutting there neck, nose, ear and other part of body. Then they take dogs, which are all cover with blood, and put them in a truck" - witnessed Kaja K, women who lives there.Animal lovers, with there cameras in mobile phones, makes photos of fleecers who are patrolling in the city and holding wires loops. Photos of dogs cover with blood and injured are overflow internet, but alerts of animal lovers who made those photos remains without response. Many residents of this area told to the journalists that they kept dogs without water and food for two or three days, before they have been euthanized. Unfortunately, there are no concrete evidences. Actor Milo%u0161 %u0110uri%u010Di%u0107, who is the founder of the private association of dog lovers "Beta", said that is forbidden to approach to the pound of Zaje%u010Dar."No one can approach and report what is happening there. In some cases they even press criminal charges against people who come near place where they are keeping dogs. In this pound they have only three cages for dogs and in normal condition there are for about 10 animals. But in cages they put in up to 70 dogs. We are going to try to find some solution with local authorities, but that is not going to happen before 20 January next year because by then they proclaim epidemic of rabies %u2013 %u0110uri%u010Di%u0107 say.
Just week ago on Facebook everybody could watch shocking video "Abuse of Zaje%u010Dar%u2019 dogs". It was very visible how fleecers by force push one dog into a truck and another strangle with wire loop. The person who saw this event, claimed that he was terrified with the sight of a dog choking, with wide open frightened eyes, and blood flowing from his mouth. "While dog was trying to breath, one fleecer grabbed him from the back, other start to poll wire loop, strangling him and in that way pushing into a truck. Dogs head and neck were completely twisted and I don%u2019t believe in that moment he was still alive" - reported horrify eyewitness.

Dog drag by car


Against Vesna S. (32 age) from Po%u017Earevac police pressed criminal charge on suspicion that she committed the crime of torturing and killing animal. Police accused her because she tie the dog with car cable for vehicle and drag him on streets in center of town Po%u017Earevac. Some citizens saw what happened and reported to the police, who found dog tied to a fence. Veterinarians have found that the dog%u2019s front legs were injured and his skin on some places was completely stripped. After medical treatment, the animal is brought to the shelter for dogs and cats in Po%u017Earevac. When police ask Vesna (who is health worker) why she abused the dog, she did not answer and defended herself with silence.

Dog Mila


Everybody knows about the case of monstrous mutilation dog Mila in the Belgrade suburb Medakovi%u0107. People who are living in a building nearest to the parking lot - where, according to the vet, crippled dog Mila lay more than a week - suspected that his neighbor did it. He is, in their opinion, "capable of doing something like that."
"We saw him chasing dogs. Those he caught he was carrying on a shoulder, then throw into air, and after he was taking them for legs and dragging along the street.

ENGLISH: Jean D'Arc was a severely disabled dog living in Tekirdag, Turkey. She was a double amputee stray dog living in the Tekridag animal shelter. She had two adoption prospects one in Istanbul and another in Germany. The day they went to the Tekirdag shelter to get her, the volunteers learned that she disappeared. This was 10 days ago. A number of people inquired to the Tekridag County to find out what had happened to this poor soul. All people heard were conflicting stories. They said she was not one of the shelter dogs. They said she used to come to the shelter and disappear for a couple of days. When the volunteers asked about the beer bottles in the shelter cages, no one gave an answer.
At last, Tekirday county officials said that they found the body of the poor girl. The volunteers wanted to retrieve the body to perform a necropsy to figure out what happened. The county was silent.
The petition you are about to sign is going to the County Official Director and the Country Veterinarian, asking them to give the body of the Jean D'Arc to the volunteers for further investigation and start an investigation to find out the illegal activities going on in the shelter.
Please help Jeanne D'Arc find peace and justice.
Sincerely,
Gulsebnem Bishop

Ensure maximum sentence for inhuman people who cruelly killed and skinned 20 innocent animals. - The Petition Site



On November 15th, 2010, the Lithuanian press published a mind-blowing story. Nineteen dogs and one beaver, were found dead in a ditch by a road in Kaunas, Lithuania. The animals had been skinned, and examinations revealed that some of them had their limbs and sex organs removed. Just a few days after this announcement, stories appeared in the Lithuanian media stating that the animals were not actually dogs, but in fact foxes, beavers and some other animals. The state of decomposition of the bodies may have led to the initial conclusion that they were dogs. Either way, a terrible act of cruelty was inflicted on innocent animals, and that is the crucial point here.
Anyway, just a month before this, in October, similar executions of innocent animals occurred in the city of Kaunas. In this incident seventeen eviscerated dogs were found. For some incomprehensible reason this horrible act was not deemed news worthy, and was not published or reported in the media at all; the incident only came to light after the November 15th story was published. Also, in September 2010 Lithuanian police received a report about a dog that had been cruelly tortured, again in Kaunas. Staff at the veterinary clinic where the animal was brought said that the poor dog was close to death, and was missing some of his fur too. Their findings also suggested that this dog's injuries were almost definitely inflicted by one or more people, in what seemed to be an attempt to skin him alive. Thankfully this dog survived, although he is still fighting for his life after the incident.
All in all,the most worrying part of these stories is that the punishment for animal cruelty in Lithuania is very small. It is mostly just a slight fine, and I believe it should be a more severe penalty. Particularly in this case, when some people seem more concerned that this is a littering issue rather than an animal rights one. Will we let those criminals who kill and torture animals for their fur, or those psychopaths who kill for pleasure elude the life sentence they deserve?
Please sign this petition so we can make the Lithuanian government impose harsher punishment for animal cruelty.

Stop the use of live animals in the University of Guadalajara - The Petition Site

Stop the use of live animals in the University of Guadalajara - The Petition Site

Two University of Guadalajara academic centers (Health Sciences along with Biological and Agricultural Sciences) have been criticized for still receiving live animals from the animal control centers and for sweeping up animals off the street to use them as part of its medical and scientific practices in the areas of Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, Nursing, Odontology and Psychology. Apart from being a clear violation of the Mexican Official Standard (NOM 042 SSA) the practice is ethically wrong. Furthermore, the University of Guadalajara has a Center for Alternative Use of Animal in Education (CAAE) that has not been exploit to the fullest.
Dogs to be used for dissection and for practicing surgical procedures are either being captured in the street by trucks owned by the University or are being provided by third parties hired for the same purpose. In some cases, dogs are wearing tagged collars, showing they have owners. Other dogs are taken from the Animal Control Center in the nearby municipality of Tonala, Jalisco. The captured animals suffer from tremendous stress due to the conditions they are put through, even prior the %u201Ceducational%u201D practice. All the animals, including sometimes puppies and pregnant dogs are forced to live in cages, often going for days without any food, shade or water.
It has been through the evidence of photos, videos and the complaints of neighbors and some of the students deeply worried about the situation, the methods or torture and extreme cruelty these animals have to go through, as well as the poor health conditions the practices take place putting at risk the health itself of the students. Their testimonies describe the use of expired anesthetics and drugs that are employed in lower doses than required, before cutting open the animals. The result is that animals aren%u2019t properly sedated and frequently gain consciousness in the middle of the surgery when they have been already cut wide open, suffering from indescribable pain. In many cases their screams and moans are silent by beating them, and those in charge of the practices do not take into consideration the provisions applicable by law. Crying means the same in every language. Let`s s help to stop this disgraceful treatment towards animals. Sign the petition to stop these archaic methods of using live animals in educational practices and make a difference. They need our help.
