Plus, The Big Cat Public Safety Act is currently pending, and Big Cat Rescue is running point on it: https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/3546.
With that said today to open the show and Blog piece, we are in need of a couple more songs that relate to animal welfare or that are about being against certain abuses. As of today, we have thirteen (13) songs cleared and i would like there to be Fifteen (15) songs totakl, on the full length LP. So far, we have popular artists and major recording acts such as Vegan Boss, The Smiths, Federal Moguls (DJ and side project from member of the Bloodhound Gang), No-Limitt, Joe Atman (with the Riohc Choir), Richtaste, Simon & Rohit Blaat, Respect, Mister Sir and Gaisi (also with special guest performer) that have contributed brand new songs by some along with popular hit songs.
It is an album with all formats, all genres with all types of subject matters that deal with poaching, wildlife crime, the Taji, Japan Dolphin Hunt, Fur, Animal Trapping, Animal Testing and about overall Animal Welfare and about being against Animal cruelty and abuse! All (100%) proceeds and all revenues go directly to the ALDF with the hope of getting this greatr bill passed this year/next year.
Thanks for the potential; support and most of all, please feel free to turn over some music if you have any that fit the spirit of this project.
On to the show and blog piece today with the first story by Green Monster, Lauren Kearney from One Green Planet about how Elephants Are Harmed for More Than Their Ivory – Here Are Three Products to Avoid. Armed with AK-47s, grenades, and other firearms, poachers will kill relentlessly in order to get hold of the “white gold” we know as ivory. In Asia, the demand for ivory is huge. Prized for ornamental use and seen as an ideal material for carving, this infatuation with ivory has led to the mass killings of elephants throughout Asia and Africa. One hundred African elephants are killed every day by poachers seeking ivory; it is estimated.
But it’s not just the demand for ivory that is driving elephants to the brink of extinction. Did you know that in addition to tusks, elephant skin, hair, and dung are used for various products? Unfortunately, the demand for these products is also driving elephants to their end. But as a consumer, you have the power to reduce that demand. Here are three elephant products to watch out for:
1. Elephant Leather
Thick and durable with its rippled texture, elephant skin is used in everything from bags and belts to gun holders, and flask coverings. You can even buy it on eBay. That’s because it’s actually, unbelievably, legal, provided one complies to the conditions laid out by the Convention of International Treaty of Endangered Species (CITES). Based primarily in the United States and imported from Africa, the elephant leather market trades freely through the Internet, meaning numerous companies are selling elephant skin online. An average price is about $400 for eight square feet.
Even popular brands, like Nike, sell elephant leather shoes in its customizable line, Perfectly Made Kicks, in which top-paying clients, like Jay-Z, can create their own shoes with their choice of at least five different exotic animal skins. Roje Exotic American Leathers, another one of the many online companies selling elephant skin, defends their use by saying, “The source of all African elephant skins come from culls once the elephant herd reaches destructive numbers to African tribes and nature.” Although many sellers claim they never sell poached hides, and instead claim that it’s the byproduct of an elephant, it’s clear that elephants are obviously being killed – either for their tusks or their skins. We don’t think this justifies the killings of a highly intelligent, endangered species purely for vanity reasons.
For centuries, mythology has believed that wearing an elephant hair bracelet would protect you from illness and bring you prosperity. Innocent, it may seem, but unfortunately, many of the elephant hair bracelets that are sold today come from either culled or poached elephants, or plucked from the tail of live elephants in captivity. Last year, authorities in Senegal broke up a ring of traffickers selling jewelry made from the hair at the end of an elephant’s tail, confiscating more than 450 items including bangles, rings and bundles of hair worth around $65,000 during a raid. It’s best to avoid elephant hair at all costs. Otherwise, you could be fueling the mass killings of elephants through Asia and Africa.
An elephant is held in chains as a man plucks out the tail hairs with his teeth.
Because not much of an elephant’s food is broken down in its digestive process, much food passes through their systems in an untouched state. We admit, it’s a bit on the gross side, but elephant fecal matter is actually crucial to its position as a super-keystone species since dung beetles and birds feed off this nutrient-laden matter filled with seeds and other vegetation (appetizing, we know). Because it is so fibrous, humans have come to use elephant dung for compost, to fill holes in the roads. Some businesses even boast elephant dung in their coffee (with a $50 per cup price tag), or use it to make paper. The problem is, while it may appear on the surface to be harmless or even so-called “sustainable,” as some of these companies tout, many of the elephants providing the dung are living in captivity in the tourism or working-elephant industry. In order to create such products from elephant dung, these highly intelligent and sensitive animals are being forced to live away from the wild, for human profit. Imagine living in chains just so people can ride you and collect your waste!
Elephant dung is collected to make pricey coffee at a Thailand tourist destination!
If you want to be a hero for elephants, the best thing you can do is avoid purchasing any elephant-derived products full-stop. Elephant leather, hair, and notebooks can all be easily purchased online but you are the consumer, and you have the decision to say no. The only being that needs elephant parts is an elephant. To further the impact, share this article with your friends and family and urge them not to buy any elephant products. Lead image source: Caitlin
ALDF Lawsuit on Behalf of Lucky the Elephant to Proceed. Lucky Deserves a Healthy and Happy Retirement!
Judge Xavier Rodriguez of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas denied the Zoo’s efforts to evade jurisdiction, finding that the plaintiffs had properly filed suit under the ESA and not, as the Zoo had misleadingly argued in its motion to dismiss, under the federal Animal Welfare Act.
ALDF, with pro bono support from Dentons LLP and local attorney Melissa Lesniak, represents three San Antonio residents who oppose the Zoo’s unlawful confinement of Lucky. The suit alleges that she is being “harmed” and “harassed” in violation of the ESA because the Zoo confines Lucky alone, without another Asian elephant companion, in an enclosure too small to meet her needs, with little to no shelter from the sun, and on a hard, species-inappropriate substrate.
As a consequence of the Judge’s ruling, the lawsuit will proceed to discovery, during which ALDF will seek access to records of the Zoo’s elephant-keeping program and to conduct independent veterinary and site-specific analyses of Lucky and her enclosure.
Lucky, an endangered Asian elephant, was captured from the wilds of Thailand before her first birthday. She has spent the last 53 years at the San Antonio Zoo, and has been entirely alone for the past three. Scientists assert that Asian elephants are emotionally, socially, and psychologically complex animals, who recognize themselves in a mirror and exhibit higher order emotions like mourning and altruistic behavior; experts agree that elephants cannot thrive in captivity, especially when held in forced solitude.
ALDF’s lawsuit seeks to end the Zoo’s unlawful confinement of Lucky and asks the Court to order her retirement to sanctuary, where she can socialize with other elephants and enjoy a much larger, species-appropriate habitat.
“Lucky has served her time entertaining the residents of San Antonio,” said Stephen Wells, executive director of the Animal Legal Defense Fund, “and deserves a happy and healthy retirement. We want her to live out her life living as an elephant should—with other elephants in as natural an environment as possible.”
Please help to Ban Circuses that Exploit and Abuse Animals in the Unites States of America.
Sure animals are not people, but they do exist, feel, and have families. And you know what? They are extremely intelligent. As human beings, we should not allow this behavior by circuses to continue. Please help put a ban to circuses that exploit animals. Please help to save a life. Please help to give these animals freedom.
Suraj - What a Difference Two Months Makes!
When the Wildlife SOS Rescue team first found him, they were devastated to see him restrained by spiked chains in a dark, dank room with little food and water. He had a malnourished frame, his body was covered with bull-hook wounds, his feet were in an advanced stage of foot-rot and his tail was injured and left untreated. In addition, due to the constant pressure from the heavy chains, his right front wrist had twisted outwards.
Suraj is currently undergoing treatment for the injuries he sustained at the hands of his former owners and has gained a healthy amount of weight as well as a hearty appetite. Due to lack of important nutrients and vitamins, he’s being given supplements with his meals, which mainly consists of sugarcane, green fodder and a variety of fruits and vegetables. His favourite foods include papayas and peppermint.
Though initially aloof and wary of his new surroundings, Suraj is gradually settling down and has become much calmer. He has learned to be a bit more trusting and is responding well to his mahouts and has been interacting with the other bull elephants like Rajesh and Mac and we are hopeful to see them all bonding over time.
Suraj has also been introduced to our target training program, a process which relies on positive reinforcement for the elephants to achieve repeated actions that enables the vets to provide safe and effective veterinary care of the animal without stressing it out. Recently, he developed abscesses on his left hip but is responding well to his treatment and his wrist injury is gradually healing as well.
This wonderful new life full of love and freedom has been possible because of your support and concern for our beloved ‘Herd of Hope’ and we hope you will continue to stand by our cause.
End Wild Elephant Imports to U.S. Zoos.
Target: Tim Van Norman, head of the permits branch at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Goal: Stop the import of wild elephants to U.S. zoos.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) approved permits for the import of 18 elephants from Swaziland, Africa. Three U.S. zoos will put the elephants from Hlane Royal National Park into captivity for the rest of their lives. The zoos will cage these animals, which are used to traveling distances of 50 miles per day, into pathetically small enclosures where they often are driven to insanity or bored to death.
They will spend the rest of their lives on exhibit and forced to breed. Most of the elephants are female and only three are male and their ages range from 6 to 25 years old, but they won’t live very long considering the lifespan for captive elephants is 17 years old compared to 56 years for wild elephants. The elephants will go to the Dallas Zoo, Sedgwick County Zoo, in Wichita, Kansas, and Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha, Nebraska.
The organization, Friends of Animals, filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service against the alleged illegal importation of the 18 elephants. They will need all the support they can get considering that a similar lawsuit that was filed by the Born Free organization in 2003, attempting to stop the import of 11 elephants from Swaziland, failed.
Elephants living in the U.S. don’t have a chance at a good life or even survival. These massive and family-centered animals should be able to exist in peace in the wild or an accredited sanctuary for the entirety of their graceful lives. We must put an end to the suffering and captivity of elephants. Tell the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service to deny the importation of these harmless animals and demand that there is an end to elephant captivity in zoos.
Dear Mr. Van Norman,
You just approved permits for the import of 18 elephants from Swaziland to three U.S. zoos. You approved the abuse and lifelong captivity of otherwise free-roaming and gentle creatures. By approving the importation of the elephants, you also supported the inhumane and needless exhibition and exploitation of animals.
You can still make a change for the better. Elephants in U.S. captivity live about a quarter of their natural lifespans. In fact, it isn’t uncommon for young elephants (like the 6-year-old being imported) to spontaneously die in captivity. We must put an end to the suffering and captivity of elephants. As head of the permits branch with the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service, you should do the right, just, and humane thing and deny the importation of these wild animals and end elephant captivity.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

OKC Zoo releases Chai the elephant's necropsy results. 37-year-old Asian elephant Chai died in January.
The elephant, Chai, died unexpectedly on Jan. 30.
Veterinary staff said an initial necropsy found no obvious signs of death. Tissue results were sent to an independent lab and found the elephant had a systemic bacterial infection.
The initial report did find the elephant had a slightly thin body condition, and the independent analysis showed a significant loss of body fat.
Zoo staff said Chai was receiving additional food because of weight loss. They said the elephant's appetite had been excellent and her behavior was normal.
The zoo has asked for further investigation to determine if Chai had a chronic issue or underlying disease. Those tests could take several weeks to complete..

We have reached our goal of 3000, in two days! Let's see if we can quickly make it to 4000. Time is short, this is an urgent situation. Please, share with anyone and everyone! Thank you for supporting this petition. I saw a picture of little Nandi with her Mother.... Please don't let them take her away...... Thank you!
About This Petition
Please support this petition by signing to save the Asian Elephant taken from it's Mother and gifted from The Sri Lanka Government to the Auckland Zoo. This is the second elephant the Sir Lankan Government has "Gifted" to this zoo. We Do Not Use Wild Animals As Trade. This is a life, with strong family bonds, and she matters! This will bring this Island Country to three captive elephants in this zoo. Which is three to many!
Elephants are highly intelligent, complex and self-aware individuals who have evolved for long distance living. In the wild they range tens of miles a day, live in large, tight-knit family groups, and communicate with one another at great distances. Yet zoos keep elephants in tiny exhibits of a few acres or less, where lack of movement and standing on hard surfaces cause painful foot infections and arthritis, the leading causes of euthanasia in captive-held elephants. The stress and boredom of intensive captivity results in abnormal behaviors such as repetitive swaying and head bobbing.
The process to bring the elephants to New Zealand includes a quarantine in their country of origin, flying them to the island of Niue for medical checks and more quarantine procedures before coming to Auckland. Yet Auckland's Mayor defends the Council vote by saying that the decision was important in helping Auckland become a major tourist destination and making the city the capital of events.
Please, we must end this age old practice of hiding behind the word "Gifted" , when we all know, nothing comes for free. Our elephants are not pawns. They are wild animals that deserve to live their lives in the wild, with their families. They were NOT put here for Human Entertainment. PLEASE TAKE A STAND AGAINST THIS CRUEL, BARBARIC ABUSE OF OUR PRECIOUS ELEPHANTS. Thank you!

We now URGENTLY need to raise travel expenses to get to Japan for this crucial visit, and we only have 22 days left. Please share and contribute to THE FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN NOW to help Hanako. Every dollar counts.
About This Petition
IMPORTANT: WE HAVE NOW ESTABLISHED CONTACT WITH HANAKO'S ZOO AND NOW NEED YOUR HELP TO FUND OUR TEAM'S TRIP!!
Hanako has lived for over 60 years alone, in a barren cement pen. Now there is finally hope for change. Every dollar counts. Every share counts. Please visit the funding campaign for Hanako and pitch in!
CLICK HERE
Hanako is a 69-year-old Asian elephant who has lived in shameful conditions at the Inokashira Park Zoo in Tokyo for the past 61 years. She was transported in 1949 from Thailand to Japan when she was just two years old, to what would become her life-long prison. And ‘prison,’ is not an exaggeration.
Blogger Ulara Nakagawa saw Hanako while visiting the zoo, and was shocked to see the conditions of her confinement. Ulara writes in her blog that it looks like "one of the cruellest, most archaic zoos in the modern world." Hanako is completely alone in a tiny cement enclosure with nothing to comfort her or provide stimulation. She just stands there, appearing almost lifeless , since there is nothing else for her to do. It was beyond painful for Ulara to take in Hanako's pitiful situation.
To add insult to injury, the Inokashira Park Zoo is located in one of the most affluent neighbourhoods in Tokyo and part of a public park known for being the home of the popular Ghibli Museum. This means that hundreds of thousands of global tourists have seen Hanako in her concrete prison and done nothing to help her.
But now we have a chance to make up for lost time and make sure Hanako lives out her last days in the comfort she deserves. Please sign and share this petition demanding that Hanako be sent to an elephant sanctuary. If this is not possible, she needs to be given medical assistance and a new, enriched enclosure where she can interact with other elephants. She should not be forced to live in a concrete prison.

The Amazing Moment a Working Elephant Gets Her Freedom After 50 Years Hauling People.
Thong Kam has found a new home at the Elephant Nature Park, which is “dedicated to providing care and assistance to Thailand’s captive elephant population.” We’re so happy Thong Kam will finally have a chance to live in a sanctuary that values her needs and her happiness.
But not all elephants are as lucky as Thong Kam. Thousands of elephants in Thailand are subjected to an entire life in captivity. These beautiful, highly intelligent beings loose their freedom the moment they are born. In captivity, elephants live miserable lives and undergo daily abuse and violence, just to for the purpose of entertaining tourists.
Join us in speaking out against the cruelty against elephants by sharing this article, and learning about the wonderful work of Elephant Nature Park.
Don’t Allow Zoos to Import Elephants From Africa.
Target: Tim Van Norman, head of permitting at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Goal: Do not allow U.S. zoos to import wild elephants from Africa.
Permits were recently approved allowing three U.S. zoos to import eighteen wild elephants from their native home in Swaziland. The Dallas Zoo, the Sedwick County Zoo in Kansas, and the Henry Doorly Zoo in Nebraska will be putting the elephants on display and using the three males and fifteen females for breeding purposes. Not many elephants remain in Swaziland, so this move will take away a significant number of the population to live out the rest of their lives in captivity. Furthermore, elephants have been proven by the scientific community to be highly intelligent and social animals that do not respond positively to being separated from their families. The quality of life they will experience as exhibits in a zoo will be detrimental to both their health and emotional wellbeing.
The Fish and Wildlife Service granted the permits despite numerous protests from animal welfare groups, and is now facing a lawsuit from Friends of Animals, a Connecticut-based animal advocacy group. The non-profit organization claims that the Fish and Wildlife Service’s failure to do a National Environmental Policy Act analysis should nullify the permits, as this analysis would have examined the physical and emotional well-being of the elephants and would have shed light on the dangers of forcibly removing them from their home. By failing to complete this analysis, the Fish and Wildlife Service violated its duty to weigh the possible dangers of the importation and fully disclose this information.
In an interview with National Geographic, Tim Van Norman, the head of the permits branch at the Fish and Wildlife Service, spoke about the decision to approve the permits and claimed that the zoos were not looking to make a profit from importing the elephants. Friends of Animals disputes this claim by pointing out that the zoos have invested more than $25 million in elephant exhibits, and Swaziland has made a profit in the past by selling elephants to U.S. zoos. Furthermore, Norman claims that his organization has “not been mandated by Congress to consider the ethics of this.” It is always the responsibility of any decision-maker to consider the ethics involved in his choice, and importing these elephants would be both cruel and unethical.
Sign the petition below to support the Friends of Animals’ lawsuit, and urge the Fish and Wildlife Service to reconsider their decision and keep the elephants safe by revoking these harmful permits.
Dear Mr. Van Norman,
The permits to import eighteen elephants from their native home in Swaziland to U.S. zoos must be revoked. Scientific findings have proved that elephants are highly intelligent, social and emotional animals, and removing them from their families and familiar habitat will be detrimental to both their physical and emotional wellbeing. They will not experience a good quality of life in captivity as zoo exhibits, and the importation should not be allowed to occur. Had a National Environmental Policy act analysis been conducted, the dangers of importing these elephants at the risk of their physical and mental health would have been discovered. This information should have been fully disclosed, as it is likely that their lifespans will be greatly shortened in captivity.
I am urging you to heed the protests of the Friends of Animals organization and the many other animal advocacy groups that have objected to these permits. Please revoke the permits, and do not separate these elephants from their families and homeland to live out the rest of their lives in captivity.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Rescued Elephant Who Spent 42 Years in Circus Enjoys a Well-Deserved Rest!
Circus elephants are typically trained to perform using painful bullhooks and other harmful methods like starvation. In captivity, they’re prone to develop potentially fatal foot conditions from standing on hard surfaces for long periods of time and the majority suffer from zoochosis as a result of the mental stress of being deprived of their natural habitats. We’ve said it more than once, but we will say it again – circuses are no place for elephants.
Thankfully, the sweet ellie in this video doesn’t have to worry about the circus any more thanks to the rescue team at Wildlife SOS. After a lifetime of being coerced into doing tricks and performing before loud crowds, Mia seems perfectly content to enjoy a simple roll in the dirt – something all elephants deserve.

Our
worst fears have come to pass on Capitol Hill. And lives are at stake.
Today,
the full House of Representatives passed H.R. 2406, the so-called “Sportsmen's
Heritage and Recreational Enhancement (SHARE) Act of 2015.” The bill is loaded with some of the
worst anti-wildlife provisions I have seen.
If
this bill passes the Senate and is signed into law, it will be a death sentence
for wolves, elephants and other vulnerable wildlife.
If
this bill becomes law:
-
Wolves will die. Wolves in Wyoming and the Great Lakes will lose Endangered Species Act protection. The last time wolves were delisted in Wyoming, 80% of the state became a free-fire zone where anyone could shoot wolves at will.
-
Elephants will die. America’s ability to crack down on the importation and sale of illegal ivory will be crippled. This gun lobby-backed provision will send a message to the armed criminals who are decimating Africa’s last herds that the American market is still open for business.
-
Alaskan predators will die. The bill would strip the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Park Service of the authority to bar the state of Alaska from launching a program to decimate wolves, grizzly bears and other large carnivores within national wildlife refuges and national preserves across Alaska.
-
Toxic lead will continue to contaminate wildlife habitat. The bill would prohibit federal agencies from regulating lead in most forms of ammunition and fishing tackle. In the United States, an estimated 3,000 tons of lead are shot into the environment by hunting every year, leading to the death of many animals from toxic lead poisoning.
You
and I Can Stop This Insanity
We
are the voice in Washington, D.C. for species that have no voice of their
own. And we’re your voice too.
With
your help, we’ll make sure this bill never becomes law. Our legislative team is
working together with other conservation organizations to make sure the
grassroots pressure to protect wildlife is unrelenting.
