“WE HAD OUR 269 LIFE TATTOOS PUT UPON OURSELVES YESTERDAY”

A few weeks ago while working out on a stationary
bike at 3AM in my 24-hour gym, I noticed the
brightly colored tattoo on the upper left arm of
a young woman who was sweating profusely while
doing her own workout on an elliptical machine. I now regret not approaching her to ask the meaning
of that tattoo.

A few days ago, I received an email message from an
Australian frend which read:

“We had our 269life tattoos put upon ourselves
yesterday – they are all 269.”

I immediately recalled the gym memory of where
I first saw that same message.

I then went to the World Wide Web to search the
meaning of ’269 Life’.

The burning of the calf’s number, chosen by the industry to be “269″, is for us an act of solidarity and immortalization. We hope to be able to raise awareness and empathy towards those, whose cries of terror and pain are only heard by steel bars …

eating animals : the consequences


 
Animals Australia

Annamaria — please take a day off. You deserve it. Take a day off from worries, from bad hair, traffic jams, and particularly, from annoying TV ads…Speaking of ads — it’s hard not to notice that Meat & Livestock Australia has hijacked Australia Day! Strewth — any visiting tourist would think that Sam Kekovich is the father of Australia and that it’s a local tradition to lob a little lamb on the barbie to prove how Australian you are! Crikey — it’s just a multimillion dollar marketing campaign to sell more lamb!

We thought Straya (‘Australia’ for our overseas friends) was all about a fair go for all; about sticking up for the undersheepdog; and above all, about looking out for our mates (four legged mates included of course).

Help us take back Australia Day in the true Aussie spirit — a day when EVERYONE deserves a day off…

This Australia Day, EVERYONE deserves a day off!

Okay, so we’re ‘taking the piss’ (a bit). But really, MLA’s campaign to urge Aussies to eat more animals should be no laughing matter. Apart from the fact that lambs are so super cute, Australians are facing a rising obesity and heart disease epidemic — conditions linked to the over consumption of animal products. Our planet’s health is suffering too. This month we sweltered through the hottest day on record — all the while our pollies conveniently ignored the fact that farming animals for food is creating more climate-warming greenhouse gasses than all of the world’s planes, trains and automobiles combined.

It’s enough to send you bonkers!

So this Australia Day, we’re calling on all true-blue Aussies to help animals, our health, and our planet — by throwing some cruelty-free tucker on the barbie. Because being Australian is more than just abbreviating all your words with the letter ‘o’. Bloody oath. It’s about taking a stand. Doing what’s right. And hosting a BBQ that will be the envy of all your neighbours. Click here and we’ll show you how!

Whatever you get up to on your day off, we wish you a happy, safe, rip-snorter of a day.

Cheers, from your mates at Animals Australia.

P.S. We need your help to spread the word that animals deserve a day off too. It’s easy. Tell your folks. Tell your mates. Share this funny video on Facebook and Twitter. Forget John Farnham — this year, YOU’RE the voice!

82-Year-old Man sentenced to three Years in Prison after his Dog killed a Cat


82-year-old man sentenced to three years in prison after his dog killed a cat as he was taking it for a walk

Jailed: Hume Hamilton has been sentenced to three years in prison for animal crueltyJailed: Hume Hamilton has been sentenced to three years in prison for animal cruelty

An elderly man has been sentenced to three years in prison for allowing his dog to kill another family’s pet cat.

Hume Hamilton, 82, was caught on surveillance camera taking his dog for a walk near his home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in June.

He walked up a driveway to where a cat was apparently resting, and the dog was filmed suddenly attacking the cat.

Hamilton can be seen in the footage trying to separate the two animals by stepping on the cat, but he was unsuccessful.

He left the scene with his dog, and the cat later died of the injuries it had sustained in the assault.

The cat’s owner, Wayne Spath, told WSVN the pet was ‘part of our family’, adding: ‘My daughter found that cat as a kitten, had it for 12 years.’

Hamilton was arrested over the animal’s death in July and held without bond because of his involvement in an unrelated case of aggravated battery.

He was found guilty of animal cruelty and trespassing last month, and on Thursday he was sentenced to three years in prison for the crime.

English: Painting of the Trial of Bill Burns, the first prosecution under the 1822 Martin’s Act for cruelty to animals, after he was found beating his donkey. It is the first known prosecution for animal cruelty in the world. The prosecution was brought by Richard Martin, MP for Galway, also known as Humanity Dick, and the case became memorable because he brought the donkey into court. The painting was made at the time of the trial. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

March for the Closing down of all the Slaughterhouses


 
 
March for the closing down of all the slaughterhouses
June 2nd in France: Paris and Castres (near Spain)
 
 
Time has come!
 
It’s time to claim loud and clear the abolition of slavery of all the animals, the abolition of the practices which cause them the biggest wrongs: their breeding, their fishing and their slaughter.
 
Every year in the world, 60 billion land animals and more than 1000 billion aquatic animals are killed without necessity, which means that 164 million land animals and more than 2,74 billion aquatic animals are killed every day.
 
On Saturday, June 2nd in Paris or in Castres, do join our protesting march for the closing down of all the slaughterhouses!
 
     
 
Meet us at 2:30 pm, close to the public garden “Georges Brassens“, on the “rue des Morillons”.
 
Description of action: March for the closing down of all the slaughterhouses
Date: Saturday, June 2nd, 2012, 2:30 pm
Location – City: Paris ­ Country: France ­ Address: close to the ancient slaughterhouses of Vaugirard, near the public garden “Georges Brassens”, on the “rue des Morillons” (Subway 12 – stations: Convention or Porte de Versailles)
 
Practical information
 
The meeting is settled in Paris, on Saturday, June 2nd, 2012, at 2:30 pm close to the ancient slaughterhouses of Vaugirard located in the public garden “Georges Brassens”, more exactly in the street “rue des Morillons”.
 
Associations and collectives are welcome under their colors, with their banners and pictures. Messages will be only centered on animals and will concern the abolition of their breeding, their fishing and their slaughtering.
 
For you to be able to be kept informed of the march’s organization, we invite you to subscribe to our newsletter. You can also join the Facebook page of the event.
 
 
 
To understand the meat abolition movement
 
This event joins in the World Weeks for the Abolition of Meat (WWAMs).
 
You will find below links to inquire on the demand of abolition of the meat.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Our resolution:
 
    Because meat production involves killing the animals that are eaten,
    because their living conditions and slaughter cause them to suffer,
    because eating animal products isn’t necessary,
    because sentient beings shouldn’t be mistreated or killed unnecessarily;

therefore, farming, fishing and hunting, as well as selling and eating animal products, have to be abolished.

Shark Found: Haifisch gefunden: am Rande der Boot-Messe in Düsseldorf

Dieser Hai wurde vorgestern von Sharkproject-Aktivisten am Rande der Boot-Messe in der Düsseldorfer Altstadtentdeckt!Sea Shepherd Deutschland ruft alle Meeresschützer die sich in diesem Moment auf der Boot und in der Nähe von Düsseldorf befinden, den Verantwortlichen des Fischhaus inmitten der Düsseldorfer Altstadt einmal persönlich vor Ort die Meinung zu sagen! Alle anderen können dies per E-Mail, Facebook, Telefon oder Fax tun. Vernetzt euch am besten an den Ständen der Boot.
Alle Kontakt-Details zum Fischhaus am Ende dieses Beitrags.

Heiner Endemann von Sharkproject telefonierte den Tag nach dem Hai-Fund (gestern) noch einmal persönlich mit Angestellten des Fischhauses, welche ihm den Hai bestätigten und ihn über den bereits erfolgten Verkauf informierten. Der Hai wurde laut eigenen Angaben komplett aufportioniert und binnen eines Tages vollständig verkauft.

Haie enthalten zumeist alarmierende Werte an Methylquecksilber-Werten. Menschen können durch den einmaligen Verzehr von Hai-Fleisch ihr ganzes Leben durch Methylquecksilber verseucht bleiben! Ein Hinweis auf die hohen Gesundheitsrisiken schien den Angestellten des Fischhauses völlig egal zu sein!

Schätzungen zu Folge werden jedes Jahr mehr als 100.000.000 Haie getötet. Im Gegensatz dazu töten sie nur etwa fünf Menschen pro Jahr. Dies in Kombination mit durch den Menschen verursachten Umweltkatastrophen und einer sehr langsamen Reproduktionsrate (einige Haiarten erreichen erst nach 30 Jahren ihre Geschlechtsreife) führt zur zwangsläufigen Ausrottung dieser höchst bedrohten Art innerhalb kürzester Zeit, wenn die Gesellschaft nicht endlich aufhört einen derartigen Umgang mit Haien zu tollerieren und die Regierungen nicht endlich den Verkauf aller Hai-Produkte weltweit verbieten!

Sea Shepherd Deutschland ruft dazu auf, dem “Fischhaus” mitzuteilen, was ihr von ihren Praktiken haltet!

Wenn die Haie sterben, stirbt auch das Meer. Und wenn das Meer stirbt, werden auch wir sterben. Das Leben an Land wäre ohne einem funktionierenden Ökosystem im Meer nicht länger möglich. Haie haben 450 Millionen Jahre überlebt und sorgen für die Gesundheit der Meere, doch nun liegt es an uns ihrer Ausrottung zuvor zu kommen!

Dog Found Five Days After Tragic Car Accident


Dog Found Five Days after Tragic Car Accident

When Lisa Hawkins set out for Calgary with her best friend and the friend’s 4- and 6-year-old daughters, all they had in mind was a holiday visit with Hawkins’s family. Instead, the trip ended in tragedy and in one small miracle.

The drive went smoothly from Burnaby, where the friend lived, to Merritt, where Hawkins makes her home. So did the stretch from Merritt to Calgary. Hawkins brought along Toffee, her year-old pit bull-Rottweiler cross, for the trip across B.C.’s southern interior and on into Alberta.

Unfortunately, Toffee turned out to be a headache for the Calgary relatives. So Hawkins’s best friend offered to leave early and drive Toffee back home. She and her two young daughters set out in their SUV on December 21st. They never reached home.

Near the summit of Rogers Pass, a mountainous stretch of B.C. highway, their SUV crossed the line and collided with a tractor trailer. The 36-year-old driver and her two daughters were killed instantly.

When police searched the scene, they found no sign of Toffee. Lisa Hawkins had a sense she might have been thrown clear and could still be alive. On Boxing Day she and her husband Steve drove to the site of the crash. Hawkins told the CBC:

My husband and I just called and shouted her name … and there she was. She popped her little head up on a snow bank, and I went running to her, definitely with tears in my eyes.

Toffee had survived both the crash and five cold, snowy days on a mountain pass. She was cold and hungry, but she was alive and healthy.

Ironically, Toffee had been the deceased woman’s dog before she was adopted by Lisa Hawkins. Finding the dog can never make up for the loss of her best friend and the two little girls, but Hawkins said in the CBC interview:

“With everything that has happened, Toffee is now more of a blessing to our family.”
