Submitted by desiree on Wed, 01/24/2007 - 15:03
Female genital cutting (FGC), also called female circumcision, has affected more than 135 million women and girls worldwide. The cutting usually takes place between the ages of 4 and 12 and can cause serious complications including severe bleeding, infection, long-term difficulties with intercourse and childbirth, and even death.
Working with community leaders, CARE has already made progress in ending female genital cutting. Now they need the help of people like you.

Illinois prevents use of dogs as weapons - say thank you
Submitted by nounours on Wed, 01/24/2007 - 12:06![]()
An innovative law that took effect January 1, 2007 will prevent dogs from being used as weapons.
Gang members, who are often legally prohibited from owning armed weapons, frequently use dogs as weapons to intimidate community members. This novel law was developed as a solution to protect the public from dangerous dogs, while also keeping the best interests of dogs at heart.

Stop puppy mills
Submitted by nounours on Thu, 01/18/2007 - 21:33Puppy mills are nothing new. These mass dog-breeding operations have been around for decades, but they continue to be a problem because unsuspecting consumers keep buying those adorable puppies in the pet store window.

Dolphins slaughtered in Japan
Submitted by nounours on Thu, 01/18/2007 - 20:45
Right now, Japanese fishermen are killing thousands of dolphins and porpoises as part of their annual hunt. Between October and April, more than 20,000 of these graceful creatures will be slaughtered. Speak out against this barbaric and unnecessary practice now!
Why is this government-sanctioned event happening? Officials claim the slaughter is a form of "pest control" since the dolphins may compete with a fisherman's catch. But the butchered dolphins are actually being sold off to supermarkets and grocery stores!
