The TRUTH is out here

Here are some gruesome facts about animals, conducted through the research of 4 concerned sixth-graders. Just see the heartcry of these little ones, their love for animals. Shouldn't we show them some support by say, stop buying fur coats, etc. and show some kindness towards what Mother Nature had given us?

~1 billion animals are killed every year in experiments

~U.S. tuna fisherman are allowed to kill over 20,000 dolphins each year

~Traps are so painful some animals bite off their own legs or arms to escape from the traps

~17 million animals are killed each year in fur traps

~40,500 square miles (105,000 sq. km) of rain forests are destroyed
each year.

~50% of the world's species are found in tropical rain forests

~30 million animals die each year for their fur


~Every threeseconds an animal dies in agony in a research lab

Stop. Do seriously give this a thought. And do support these prevention of animal cruelty organizations:

OR, simply visit SSPCA (The Sarawak Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) at 6 1/2 mile here, in Kuching, or visit their site (http://www1.sarawak.com.my/org/sspca/index.html)


What each of you do can really save some animals from extinction. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

Oh my goodness, I feel so shocked with all the facts on animal cruelty! Those statistics shows that animal cruelty is in a very serious state indeed. Hey, what if we organize a trip for Swinburne Students to visit SSPCA?
