EARS ARE DEALIND WITH FLOOD ANIMAL IN IOWA
|
The
floodwaters in Cedar Rapids, Iowa may be receding, but United Animal Nations' Emergency Animal Rescue Service (EARS)
volunteers are dealing with a flood of animals who, stranded for days, need immediate care and attention.
Each day, more than 100
animals are being rescued and brought to an emergency shelter. There, the frightened, lonely and traumatized dogs, cats
and other creatures are taken into the loving arms of our EARS volunteers.
Please make a
donation to our Disaster Relief Fund to support these efforts.
We have more than 20
volunteers on the ground now, and continue to deploy more to manage this overwhelming task. With nearly 600 animals in
the shelter, and more arriving daily, our volunteers are working day and night to give these beloved pets the tender
loving care they need until they can be reunited with their families.
Our work won't end
when the shelter closes, either. We're hearing that hundreds, if not thousands of families will have no homes
to return to. We fear that many people will feel forced to surrender their pets because they have nowhere to live with
them. Thankfully, UAN's LifeLine Crisis Relief Grants
can help flood victims pay for temporary boarding until they can find new,
pet-friendly residences.
Please help us
provide financial assistance to displaced families by donating to our Disaster Relief Fundtoday!
We are hopeful that, with
your support, we can meet the needs of the animals and families devastated by the historic flooding in Cedar
Rapids.
Warmly,
Shannon Asquith
Director of Field Services

PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATION -NY
See
how birds suffer in captivity! A bird is not a "pet"
WHAT: Peaceful Demonstration against Bird Paradise
WHEN: Saturday, June 21, 2008 from 2:30 pm - 4:30 pm
WHERE: Public right of way in front of Bird Paradise, 551 E Rt. 130 S, Burlington, NJ 08016
Every year thousands of birds are bred and sold by one of the largest bird stores in
the nation: Bird Paradise. Pet store birds are deprived of their natural environment and often imprisoned in cages.
Even the most well intentioned person cannot provide for the needs of any bird. Bird Paradise brags about having
thousands of birds for sale. On their own Web site, they claim they are the "World's Largest Bird Store". Let's tell
them that profiting from the exploitation of birds is not something to be proud of.
To see video of actual bird
mills, visit http://www.projectperry.com/birdmills.html
Signs and leaflets are provided. Parking is available on the side streets
next to Bird Paradise. Please do not drive/walk through Bird Paradise's parking lot or grass lot.
Contact: justroar@comcast.net or visit ww w.BoycottBirdParadise.com for more information.
If you cannot attend the demonstration but would still like to help birds, please take a minute to send an email to the
local papers. Ask them to cover the demo.
And feel free to add your
thoughts about keeping birds in captivity, profiting from breeding, etc...

Please contact avian groups such as the Avian Welfare Coalition and
other animal rights organizations and ask that they join in, or start their own protest outside of petstores. Are they
really for the birds, or not?
Thank you,
HAVE YOU SEEN THIS PIGEON TRPPER?
To view the thread go to:
http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post/luciedove/vpost?id=2778859
Subject: Pigeon Trapper
Hello:
Here's a license
plate no. of a station wagon, with one male driver, that
I've seen trapping pigeons with a very large net.The net folds over and the whole thing is dumped in the back of the
wagon, pigeons and all. Driver takes off without saying anything to pedestrians questioning his motives or reasons for
trapping.
License no. is CXL 6393.Saw him a few months ago at the St. Vincents Clinic on 12th st. and 7th ave,
also at the Union Square Park in the a.m.There are no signs on the wagon to indicate an "official" vehicle of any
kind.
Here's hoping that idiot councilman from Bklyn doesn't get his anti-pigeon bill up before the full council.
What is anyone doing about this?

IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING
After a dry spell of several weeks where there was not any
pigeon netting -- pigeon shoots in PA were cancelled because of the lack of pigeons, Dwayne Daley, a notorious
netter, was seen on 101 Street and Manhattan Avenue at 6:45 a.m. this morning netting pigeons again, as reported to us
by someone. He/she apparently makes several trips to that area in a day, and the person will be going back to
check.
It is unbelievable that laws are being broken, and that nothing is done
about it. Please continue to call 311, the police, the ASPCA and
the DEC at 800-847-7332.
Individuals with information may call the toll-free live pigeon shoot tip line at 1-800-637-4124.
Keep calling and put pressure on our elected government
representatives because the worst thing you can do is to do nothing!!!!!!!
Why there isn't an attorney somewhere who will sue the City is beyond me
because they are breaking the law according to the Department of Health. You are not permitted to
remove pigeons or wildlife from their habitat without a permit.

REPORT ILLEGAL ACTIVITY
Please call the DEC to report illegal activity and poaching of any
wildlife including pigeons.
Please have as much information as possible to give to the law
enforcement officer -- times, dates (especially if the netting/poaching occurs at regular intervals), location,
description of vehicle with license plate number, if possible.
Department of Environmental Conservation:
800-847-7332
This number should also be used to report petstore
abuse.
