If you respect the rights of the animals, please help us to put an end to a business that is shaming all of us and hurting animals that run for their life and not for fun!

Vigília à luz das Velas para fecharmos o Canídromo!

Caro Amigo, Por favor ajude-nos a fechar o Canidromo! Sabia que qualquer galgo que é trazido para Macau para correr está condenado a morrer? Sim, é exactamente assim. Centenas de galgos são importados da Australia todos os anos para serem usados e abusados pelo Canidromo e nenhum sai de lá vivo! Felizmente temos agora uma extraordinária oportunidade de fechar a pior pista de galgos do mundo. Mas precisamos da sua ajuda! Por favor ajude-nos a ajudá-los! Participa na nossa Vigília à luz das Velas no dia 30 de Setembro das 8 às 10 da noite no passeio junto aos lagos Nam Van exactamente em frente ao Palácio do Governo. Mostre que os animais têm direitos! Trata-se de uma concentração pacífica, silenciosa e sem qualquer conotação ou fins politicos, apenas para mostrar o nosso pesar pela morte de tantos animais jovens e saudáveis que são abatidos numa média de um por dia! Contamos consigo! Anima [gallery ids="18968,18966,18964,18978,18976,18962,18960,18958,18954,18952,18950,18948,18946,18940,18942,18944"]...

Anima – Please help us to help our greyhounds!

Our on-line petition to the Macau Chief Executive reached today at 10:13 am the amount of 235,961 supporters! We have launched the petition on April and we have stopped collecting signatures after around one month as the majority of people prefers to do it on-line. In less that one month only going out for few days we have collected in Macau around 2,000 supporters! We decided to concentrate collecting supporters on-line and we have sent emails to all the 165 international animal welfare organizations that support our fight for the end of that business made with the blood of our greyhounds! 65 of these organizations are from Mainland China! On 23rd of July, Anima holds an International Roundtable on Greyhounds in Macau inviting 10 International Organizations, two from Mainland China, three from Hong Kong and one from Taiwan. Besides Anima, we will have with us: GREY2K USA Worldwide RSPCA (UK) Animals Australia RSPCA...
