Code Animal

Code animal site that supports and protects the animals from circuses, which are thousands of years of animal scientists, by the force of human brutality! -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Circus Parade (Dir.Eugène Goujeon) Enter walking Sign online>> Photo above by Natuurhulpcentrum The Natuurcentrum in Opglabbeek mistreated receives a lion from a French circus. (By Kim Herbots) Janssen If you can come a moment? Front of "his" center Natuurpunt were in a van two French. In the same van was Brutus, a circus lion seriously abused .. Brutus was "removed" from the circus parade, the SPA (which immediately released funds to enable withdrawal of the animal) and the Foundation Assisting Animals who have tried to place a shelter in french, but there had no place, tells Sil Janssen. They therefore decided to carry the lion Brutus to our center. Brutus spread lazily in his bed aménaged, shows a figure a little strange. As if trying to remove a candy that is stuck between its teeth. "The broken jaw," says Sil Janssen. "Listen, this can happen in a dog by an accident of a fall, but a lion that breaks the jaw dropping, I do not think so. He was beaten and kicked to the foot. Brutus is a circus lion and tricks are not learned with gentle caresses. Its claws were torn which means he has been punished because of challenging behaviors. " Brutus was abducted circus circus parade. "He was locked in a cage too small for him and placed on a semi-trailer" Sil says Janssen. "He could not leave his cage or participate in numbers. Bad years are behind him now, only good years ahead of him. It is now spoiled with some extras: you will see it regularly, give good food. It must make him understand that he does not do the lesser evil. Brutus must have 4 or 5 years now, but with 130 kilos, it is a bit too skinny for his age. Genetically we know nothing of him, but we suppose it was raised illegally. At the circus that is easy to find animals. Lions in the first place because they are high as cats. Otherwise you buy a lion in Eastern Europe. Each town has its own zoo. Pathetic line of cages ... Employees of these zoos often sell animals. I know a farmer in Romania that has dug a big hole in which he keeps a lion. From time to time he throws a dead sheep. He bought this lion in a circus. In Spain lions are routinely confiscated. They are considered a popular pet. In 1976 "Natuurhulpcentrum" opened its doors. Our goal was to save only local animals such as squirrels and owls at risk. For this mission we receive subsidies. But as and when messure snakes arrived, and then after the iguanas and monkeys! Simba and 2001 was there. I was contacted by police Sil Janssen remembers. "They had confiscated a tiny lion. The animal was collected in a small chest and was lying in his own feces. He could not stand up or stand. They had called for hours to find a shelter. At that moment I did not yet have cages suitable, but because it was a small animal, I decided to keep it. From that moment, I learned that lions grow very fast! At the beginning Simba was in a cage built with wire regular daily cage inflate a little more, each time he leaned against the son. "(Laughs). After Simba, three circus lions arrived with the necessary equipment. Brutus is the fifth lion that welcomes Janssen, but this is the first lion that comes without being actually planned. "If I have the means, I am willing to help all animals, but occasionally we need to know refuse. Last year there was confiscated a bear and three panthers in Wallonia. The animals were kept in a garage. I could do nothing: we had a bear and large cage was not free .. At first I thought to bring these exotic animals in the zoo, but it was not because zoos are not interested. They can not not include a male in a group from one day to another. Moreover, they fit into specific programs. A bastard as Brutus is nothing for these zoos. Towards a sanctuary ... Janssen's view is that a zoo could still play an important role. At that time everyone knew the story of Simba. People came from all over to admire it. Zoos could address this problem and allow these animals. They could show people how you should not use and treat these animals! Brutus's predecessors in Opglabbeek were all sent to sanctuaries in Africa. Live a life completely wild is not feasible. It raises the question as to find a suitable place for Brutus completed. Its claws were torn and can not give it back. This is problematic, because when given large pieces of meat, it can not enter and eat. And his jaw .... according to the first medical examination, the fracture is too old to change something. When he is in a group of six or seven animals, the food is consumed before it can start ... But these are problems for later. For months and years ahead, Brutus is still here and continue to "grunt" in a manner enthusiastic when he will offer a chicken death. Brutus is an animal circus and he lived a life and careers difficult. It is yet spoiled by Opglabbeek Info: www.natuurhulpcentrum.be. Publication date: 2009-03-27 - Newspaper "De Morgen" - Betty Lathouwers Translation ___ Release of a lion by the Foundation Assisting Animals and the APS Foundation Humane Society and the Protector of Animals (SPA) are once again united to save the last wild animal held by the Paradise Circus Circus, a lion who is 4 years. This seizure, following a lack of certificate of competency and a lack of authorization for the opening and the evidence of serious breaches of certain circuses face of legislation, is a new step in the protection of wild animals in circuses. "Our two associations campaigning for the phasing out of wild animals in circuses. A lion has no place in a cage a few square meters, he must live in their natural habitat. Our requests to the Ministry in this direction and we redemandons the Government to hear our requests! "Said Virginia Pocq Saint-Jean, National President of SPA and Arnauld Lhomme, investigator for the Humane Foundation. The lion will be hosted by the park Natuurhulpcentrum (Center for assistance in kind), Belgium
