eBAY HUNTS |
|
Despite international requests to cease the practice,
eBay continues to allow the selling
of guided trophy
hunts.
They state the company policy is to
"remove items when the item or description graphically portrays violence or
victims of violence and lacks substantial social, artistic, or political value."
Yet, gunning down animals for the express
purpose of bragging to one's buddies
is just fine with them. Please contact
eBay. |

searches, arrests, assembly bans, and confiscation
of property, based on whims. Please read the details

DOG CULLS
IN CHINA |
|
A rabies
outbreak in northwestern China is causing
such panic that all sense and conscience
have been thrown out the window. Tens
of thousands of dogs are being "culled"
by whatever means are at hand. In most
cases that is clumsy and barbaric clubbing
to death. You can read the details in
the Animals Asia alert. Please help
them combat this culling.
