~Help Save Our Animals~
If you are looking at this page, you are probably concerned about our animals and have wanted to do something to save them from extinction. Here you will find several websites that point the way to saving all of God's creatures ~ not only from extinction, but from being put down due to not having a place to feed or care for animals that were used for man's entertainment and are just getting elderly and not viewed as useful anymore.
I believe that God gave us his wonderful creatures to enrich our lives and that we need to do everything possible to care for them. I hope you will find something here that will inspire you to join the fight.
"So God created...every living creature....And God saw that it was good."
Genesis 1:21
"It is time that we accept our responsibility
as privileged thinking, speaking beings --
and give appropriate honor
to the animals in our midst."
~God, Bless the Animals~

One of the high points of my life was the opportunity to touch these darling lion cubs in Paradise Valley Springs, Rotorua, New Zealand. These cubs already had a zoo somewhere in the world that will welcome them when they are grown. The lions are not allowed to breed until there is a place for the cub to go to and call home. Paradise Springs Valley is dedicated to the welfare and preservation of lions.
These lions are treated with respect and love in an effort to save the species.

"The worst sin towards our fellow creatures
is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them. That's the essence of inhumanity."

A German Shepherd dog known as 'Pepper' sits with two endangered Bengal Tiger cubs and a Cougar cub at the home of Veterinary Surgeon Rob Zammit in the outer Sydney suburb of Windsor April 2, 2001. Zammit took the orphaned cubs into his care after their mothers rejected them as a result of recent heavy rains scaring them into focusing on their own survival. Zammit's dog then stepped in to help them with supervising their cleaning and toilet training. REUTERS/David Gray

The late author and humanitarian, Cleveland Amory, founded The Fund for Animals in 1967. He served without pay until his death in 1998. Cleveland wrote three delightful books about his beloved cat, Polar Bear: The Cat Who Came for Christmas, The Cat and the Curmudgeon, and The Best Cat Ever. The Fund for Animals is doing marvelous things for all kinds of animals and is a great resource for information on all animals worldwide. Their motto, "We speak for those who can't" says it all. Their main focus is animal protection and humane education. If you want to know what ballot measures your state has on its agenda, you can find out here.

Have you heard about the "bile bears" in China? What these Moon Bears endure so that bile can be extracted from their gallbladders daily is sickening. There are thousands and thousands of these beautiful bears being tortured. Through the efforts of people all over the world -
signing petitions, faxing the Chinese government - 500 bears have been rescued and are receiving medical care to remove the bile tubes and help in their recovery. They are also receiving therapy to build their withered muscles and get them into good condition.
Visit the Animals Asia Foundation by clicking on the banner below. Here you can read about the China Bear Rescue and even download cute screensavers of bears in recovery or view video clips.
