"Keep Wildlife in the Wild" Recommendations

Born Free USA United with API is featuring a different way to help wildlife stay where they belong each day of this week - June 1 to June 7. These are common sense recommendations if you really want to help save animals. Check out the page on Animals in Entertainment, for example. It's filled with information and links to fact sheets on circuses and zoos. And, don't forget the marine parks. The WSPA's 76-page report clarifies the issue of marine mammals in caprtivity. So, when friends or co-workers talk about going on vacation this summer, ask them to reconsider plans to visit the zoo, the circus, or Sea World.

You'll also be able to read the lies Coke tells people when they express concerns about the blatant abuse. Over the years Coke has made the same sorts of excuses as Anheuser-Busch ("We have no control over what our bottlers do"), and they still are. Let them know you don't buy from liars.
