Wild mammals chased until the point of exhaustion before being attacked by packs of dogs, which despite hunting with dogs being illegal in England, Wales and Scotland still takes place Dogs forced by criminal gangs to take part in brutal and illegal organised fights, causing terrible injuries and a painful death 'Big game' such as lions or elephants killed legally by hunters so they can bring their 'trophies' back to their home country - even though this ‘sport’ is devastating lion and other wildlife populations 'Game' birds factory farmed and later released into the countryside, to be shot from the sky and die an agonising death Animals forced to race against each other with great risk to their wellbeing for the benefit of betting spectators Animals caught in snares set up by gamekeepers to protect shooting interests, which catch, injure or kill huge numbers of animals, including dogs, cats, otters, foxes, badgers, hares and young deer Bulls publicly tortured and executed in bullrings in the name of sport, art or tradition For millions of animals in the fur farming industry, their fate is having all their skin sliced off their bodies while they are ALIVE, after much prior abuse.Amazingly, some animals are still alive, in absolute agony, up to ten minutes after being fully skinned. Cruelty to animals in Asia is appalling, with dogs and cats being boiled ALIVE and eaten as food, (see The Cat & Dog Meat Trade In Asia), after being beaten to “tenderise” the meat whilst alive. Traditional Chinese Medicine uses animal ingredients, including from endangered species. This encourages poaching and leads to lives of pain and misery for millions of animals. One of many Spanish festivals and other cruel traditions worldwide involves throwing terrified live goats off the top of high towers. That is entertainment?! Dogs involved in Dog Fighting are so desperate to please their owners that they are willing to put up with tremendous pain.They are then rewarded with the cruelest of deaths at the hands of those owners. Chicks are thrown in to mincing or grinding machines and are ground up alive, just for being male or of no use to the egg laying industry, Greyhounds are abandoned, having had their ears cut of with no pain killers so their racing tattoo cannot identify their owners, dieing from the infection. Alternatively they can be killed in the cruelest of ways, just because they are no longer making money for their owners by Greyhound racing. Only a very small fraction of greyhounds make it to rescue to be re-homed. I HOPE YOU PUT THE TIME TO READ THIS AS THIS IS ONLY A FRACTION OF THE ANIMAL ABUSE AROUND THE WORLD PLEASE SIGN AND SHARE
