NOTE: please call them to thank for the cockfighting report

and encourage them to report more of animals suffering ,

especially Slaughterhouse issue because :

 

1: It is the Biggest killing field for more than 90 % of all

animals killed.

2: The " Humane Slaughter Act " is NOT enforced as

the former Secretary of Agriculture Dan Glickman conceded .

It has been neglected by all levels in the society for entire US

history! Now is the time to get media attention.

3: There are nearly TEN BILLION animals are killed for food each

year in just U.S.A. alone. And Congress purposely exclude

" food animals " (the biggest part in animal world ) from

Animal Welfare Act !

The U.S. Senate and U.S. House Agricultural Committees are

colluded with the meat and dairy industry the most !!!

B :

 

Even more antimeat jokes from the King of Late Night

 

 

Dear Friends: In his monologue, NBC's " Tonight Show " host Jay Leno

did another series of anti-meat jokes. It's becoming a regular schtick

for him, along with teasing his proudly vegetarian sidekick

Kevin Eubanks.

 

As you know, someone says they found a severed rat head in their Big

Mac...Now, Wiener Schnitzel is suing McDonald's for stealing its

secret rat head recipe. ...You know what they call the thing...

An Ozzy Ozborn Happy Meal...It's a funny feeling when you bite into

a Big Mac...and it bites you back.

CAUGHT IN A PAINFUL TRAP .

 

Animals: Steel-jaw leghold traps are inhumane and dangerous to pets

and untargeted species.

 

Originally published March 14, 2001 on Baltimore Sun.

 

TRAPPING WILD animals for fur is not a popular pastime in Maryland,

but it could be a more humane one. Steel leghold traps are a particularly

unpleasant device, inflicting violent pain on impact and compounded

violence as desperate animals struggle to free

themselves. Sometimes they gnaw off their own limbs to escape or ease the

agony. These steel-jaw traps are inefficient and nonselective. They can,

and do, injure and kill animals that trappers are not hunting.

That includes pet dogs and cats, protected songbirds and waterfowl, deer

and even livestock. Four suburban counties already ban

these furbearer traps as public hazards, allowing their use only if

completely under water. More than a half-dozen states have banned or

severely limited use of these inhumane traps. So has the

European Union and 90 other countries. Legislation to ban steel leghold

traps -- not trapping and not all commonly used traps -- is before the

General Assembly. Opponents argue that the legholds are more effective

and no more cruel than other traps. But their chief objection seems to be

the cost of buying these alternatives. One compromise

suggested would require that leghold traps be padded; such devices are

commonly available. That might soothe public fears, but it does not

make leghold traps more humane.

To bolster enforcement, Maryland also should require a trapping license.

Unlike other states, Maryland only requires a general hunting license,

with no trapping education.

That's a poor basis on which to enforce existing trapping regulations and

manage the wildlife resource. Animal suffering may be a harsh reality

of nature. But indifference to the torment of animals trapped for

recreation or profit is something human society must not sanction.
