Fight against animal abuse

Animal abuse angers me to no end, people who abuse animals should serve a lifetime sentence in prison.

This is a woman in China that roasted a puppy.....

WHAT ALSO COMES TO MIND IS NO WONDER THERE'S A CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK... THESE PEOPLE WILL EAT ANYTHING

Every day in China, countless dogs are cooked and eaten -- part of a culinary tradition that dates back thousands of years. Rarely, however, has the grim reality of the cruelties these animals face been so horrifically displayed. The image of a woman cooking a live puppy outside a public marketplace has struck a powerful chord among Chinese internet users since it was first published online recently. Such a scene is unimaginable, though reportedly not uncommon -- but judging from the outrage the photo has generated, it just may help sow the seeds of reform.According to the web site 7SUR7, the horrifying photograph depicts an act that is said to occur regularly in the eastern Chinese city of Kengkou, outside the marketplace where the photo above was reportedly taken. While the demand for dog meat has a spawned canine livestock industry, it is not unusual for stray dogs to be consumed as well.

"Stray puppies are regularly caught in the street to be roasted alive in this market. In China, vehement protests erupted on the Internet following the broadcast of these images," said the report.

Although the origins of the photo are unclear, it has quickly gone viral on Chinese blogs and message boards, eliciting strong reactions from users shocked by the blatant cruelty it portrays. On one forum featuring the photo, the near consensus among well over a thousand commenters is that of horror and disgust.

"Utterly devoid of conscience," writes one user. "She will be a dog in the next life," says another.

In the West, where consuming dog is generally considered taboo, such sentiments will likely be echoed and amplified, but not without a tinge of hypocrisy. Every day in the U.S., millions of livestock animals, like cows, pigs and chickens, are slaughtered in a manner many animal activists consider unduly cruel and inhumane.

While abuse and mistreatment of animals seems universally offensive, so often it takes powerful and disturbing reminders to generate the outrage cruelty warrants -- and to spur reforms that ensure they do not continue. Unfortunately, on that front, our work is far from finished.

Need a hand? Incredible moment orangutan reaches out to help a conservationist who looked stuck in the river as he cleared snakes from apes' habitat

This is the heartwarming moment an orangutan tries to assist a man stood in a river by offering its outstretched arm.

The great ape, who lives in a protected conservation forest area in Borneo, was seen leaning forward and lending a helping hand to the man who had been in the muddy river searching for snakes.

The striking images were taken by amateur photographer Anil Prabhakar, from Indonesia, who had been on a safari with his friends when he spotted the touching scene.

Mr Prabhakar later found that the man worked for the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation- a non-profit organisation aimed at protected the endangered species.

The worker had been clearing away snakes in an effort to guard the orangutans when he was interrupted by the inquisitive ape.

However the amateur photographer revealed the man refused the orangutan's hand after he put away the camera - as it was a wild animal.

Mr Prabhakar said: 'Someone told him there was a snake in the river. The warden went there and cleared the bushes.

'An orangutan came to the banks and was watching what he was doing. He then came closer and gave his hand.

'The warden just moved away. I asked him why later and he said: ''It's a wild animal, not one we are familiar with''.

'But they are to protect them.'

The Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation is an Indonesian non-profit organisation founded in 1991.

The foundation, which has 400 members of staff, is currently taking care of almost 650 orangutans.
