The barbarity of the human race never ceases to stun me; the senseless and brutal acts that are performed on animals throughout the world are barbaric. A friend of mine sent me a horrendous email showing explicit photos of a pod of dolphins being murdered, what sort of person could stand there in a sea of blood mindlessly hacking to death such a gentle and defenceless creature? The same that would hack any animal to death I should imagine! I am not going to include the photos that tore my heart in two this morning, if you wish to see them I am certain they will be on the internet. And in reality to me words cannot describe what I saw, what they did, how those people can do what they have done, no one with compassion or love in their heart would slaughter an inquisitive and friendly creature so that they fill their bellies. I am ashamed to be known as a human when those of my kind do what has been done to the Calderon Dolphins in Denmark. “DENMARK: WHAT A SHAME, A SAD SHAME. THIS MAIL HAS TO BE SEEN. THERE IS NO WORST BEAST THAN HUMAN KIND ITSELF!!!!BRUTAL, Dantesque, bloody slaughter in the Faroe Islands, which belong to Denmark. A country supposedly 'civilized' & a European Union country. For many people this attack to life is unknown, to sensitivity. THIS bloody slaughter is an insane 'show' of entering adulthood! Is absolutely incredible that no one does anything to prevent this barbarism that are committed against Calderon, an intelligent dolphin who has the particularity of approaching people out of sheer curiosity. Some traditions just MUST STOP!PLEASE inform people.” May the Universe direct and protect any other Calderon dolphins from the same fate, and may a few more of you wake up to the mindless slaughtering that the humans do, this is just one in a long list of atrocious acts committed against animals but add it to; Using live cats and dogs for fishing bate. Skinning Labrador dogs and Siamese cats ALIVE for souvenirs and toys. Plucking live geese for their down feathers Castration of horses with no use of anesthetic. Fox Hunting. Shooting ANY animal for sport. Cock fighting. Bull fighting. Eating the brains of a live monkey. The death farms of all animals used for food. Taking the fins of sharks and letting them bleed to death in the water, ALL of these practices are barbaric, all the animals abused and murdered are sentient beings, all know how to love…………….. And above all they all feel the pain of their bloody violent deaths.... What sort of people have we become? What sort of person and do any of these things to another living and feeling creature? As I said I am disgusted to be a part of such a sickeningly violent and wicked race of unfeeling and selfish beings, in fact at this moment in time if I died today I would be happy, delighted to leave a world where the greed and welfare of the human is put before anything else…………………….

Oh dear....
sorry Gem if I upset you by forwarding that e-mail...my aunt in Brisbane sent it to me and she loves her animals..tho not sure if she eats meat or not....however I feel as you do about the dolphins and thought you knew of this already....I have been aware of this practice since back in Australia I think there was a program about it at one time....so if it was that far back as you can see nothing has been done about it anyway...you should put some picks up or have a link that we can see....I was trying o get a link to put on facebook but couldn't work one out...can you?
Maybe you could set up a facebook cause or something like it....what weird things go on and yet even I forget and need constant reminders....I am not as dedicted as you are but have very similar feelings...and like you I DO feel like if i died tomorrow I would not have to witness all these awful things...but then...our loved ones would miss us so and then how would people like you be around to fight the battle....best you stay around a little longer my friend...the planet needs you too...xxxx

Hi Gem, i am so glad i have found this website and i see that you have also seen that horrible email of the killing of beautiful, defenceless, innocent creatures. I'm am just as disgusted and i have forwarded the email on to WWF here in South Africa, they are looking into this matter and will see what they can do to help. Those people have no right to live and you are right, it is embarrasing to be part of such a race.
I know that today a lot of people feel the same way we do as i forwarded the email to everyone in my mail box and i am sure they did the same.
I am sadened by this email and i hope that WWF can do something about it quickly.

Regards,
Janeil
