Сегодня получила петицию из рассылки от Humane Society International:
«Animal protection organizations in Ukraine are reporting the cruel and ineffective killing of street dogs through poisoning, all in an effort to quickly rid the streets of them for the upcoming Euro 2012 soccer championships. Meat laced with poison is being left on the streets for dogs to innocently consume and suffer an agonizing and prolonged death.
The poisoned animals have been found convulsing in pain, while people who care about them stand by helplessly and try to offer some comfort in their final, painful minutes. Thousands of dogs throughout the country have fallen victim to this barbaric and indiscriminate means of killing.
HSI has contacted Ukrainian officials encouraging them to work with us on a humane approach to controlling their street dog population. To date, we've had no response. Please take action now at tell the Ukrainian president that this cruel killing must stop.
TAKE ACTION
Urge the Ukrainian president to stop the killing of street dogs -- sign our petition today.»
