Can you hear.. the voice of animals? |
Although we have a so-called "pet boom" in Japan, it is said
that the number of the dogs and cats captured at the public animal protection
centers due to owners' carelessness, irrisponsibility or egoistic selfishness
is 800,000-900,000. Quite very few of them can return to their owners or
find new adoption families. Most of them will be either used for animal
experiments or killed - not an easy and painless death (carbonic acid gass
and burned even still alive) - their lives are taken away, no way to get
out of it for them.

The environment that human being and animals can live together
|
SALA (Save Animals Love Animals) NETWORK is the group of people who desire
to reduce the number of unhappy dogs and cats and to live together with
them.
The animals are also our friends who share the society, the earth and
the space with us. It should be the base for creating the environment that
all lives can live together if we respect our friends' lives, ptotect their
right to live, think over the human-dominated daily life again and cultivate
sentiment of sympathy for the weak.
