Like almost everywhere else in Turkey, the legally required “neuter – vaccinate - return” system for the control of stray animals does not apply in Izmir. Instead, what they implement is “don’t neuter – don’t vaccinate – go dump in the nearest forest” (there are local variations to this illegal system, for instance, in the absence of forests in Ankara, the most preferred dumping location is stone quarries located miles away from the city center). The law is not worth the paper it is written on. Audrey and his brother too are victims of this lawlessness.

What options await these dumped dogs?

1.die a slow death due to hunger and starvation in the forest. A sort of natural selection process.
2.most of the time, they get killed by official dog poisoning sprees local councils regularly conduct in the forests
3.those that are lucky get regularly fed by volunteers who have dedicated their lives to keeping these dogs alive
4.those even luckier get rescued from the forests.

Audrey and his brother belong to this last group. They were rescued from the forest by a member of Let’s Adopt. Audrey’s brother has already found a new home. And now Audrey is very very urgently looking for a new home. And why is this particularly urgent? Because another Audrey is on the line. Once this Audrey is re-homed, a truly desperate dog will move into Audrey’s foster home, and continue its struggle for life there.

Please write to us RIGHT NOW to adopt Audrey. By adopting Audrey, you will have saved not one but two lives.

Breaking Investigation Reveals Holiday Horrors for Turkeys The dark side of the turkey industry Other Viewing Options Watch more videos at PETA.orgMore than 72 million of the nearly 270 million turkeys killed for food every year in the U.S. are slaughtered for holiday meals. This year, just prior to the flesh-focused Thanksgiving holiday, PETA conducted an undercover investigation lasting more than two months at the factory farms of Aviagen Turkeys, Inc., the self-proclaimed "world's leading poultry breeding company." While working at a series of Aviagen factory farms in West Virginia, PETA's investigator documented that workers tortured, mutilated, and maliciously killed turkeys. The following are just a few of the documented offenses: Employees stomped on turkeys' heads, punched turkeys, hit them on the head with a can of spray paint and pliers, and struck turkeys' heads against metal scaffolding. Men shoved feces and feed into turkeys' mouths and held turkeys' heads under water. Another bragged about jamming a broom stick 2 feet down a turkey's throat. A supervisor said he saw workers kill 450 turkeys with 2-by-4s. One man said he saw a coworker fatally inject turkey semen and sulfuric acid into turkeys' heads. To learn more, please read the investigator's log notes, view our photo gallery, and visit our blog. PETA's investigator repeatedly brought abuses to a supervisor's attention. The supervisor responded, "Every once in a while, everybody gets agitated and has to kill a bird." PETA also brought the abuse to the attention of Aviagen, and although the company made assurances and instituted some new rules, the cruelty did not stop. The suffering typically found on factory farms was also routine in Aviagen's sheds: Hens' beaks were cut with pliers, massive birds collapsed and died of exhaustion or heart attacks, and turkeys were thrown into transport cages. Please write to Aviagen Turkeys, Inc., and demand that it implement PETA's seven-point animal welfare plan. Also demand that the company pledge to immediately terminate employees caught abusing or neglecting animals in the future (the company claims to have terminated some such workers), and ask the company to cooperate with state and local law enforcement to criminally prosecute all such employees.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING, DEAR NESSAN, HERE IS ANOTHER : IVANKA December 06, 2008 12:47 PM

Ivanka, you make your own luck! This little female kitten is about 10 weeks old. Judging by her looks and behaviour she was a home cat until the owner decided to get rid of her (she loves crisps and milk). She was wandering in the middle of the night looking for cover until she found the open front door of an appartment building. She went up to the second floor, decided that her destiny was in that home and starting miaowing desperatedly asking for the door to be opened.. She was saved. The rescuer already has a number of cats AND dogs in the home (Ivanka chose well) so we need to find her a permanent family. She is as cute and funny as it gets. The pictures speak by themselves. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=12135&l=3ea66&id=1314867706 contact: v.larkhill@googlemail.com

A PROUD DOG KILLER December 06, 2008 12:56 PM

 [ send green star]
 
 December 06, 2008 12:57 PM

Not a single day goes in Turkey without news of animal cruelty.In this post, we would like to share with one such - ordinary - story with you from a coastal town near Istanbul. It is actually a classic:a group of dedicated animal lovers try to take care of the stray animals in their neighborhood to the best of their ability. Mind you they are all vaccinated, neutered and tagged. One day, a local authority decides that it is time to kill them. The weapon of choice for the murderous campaign is usually poison. They choose the perfect timing for the heinous act as well: early morning when everybody will be sleeping. History repeated itself in this coastal town that we are talking about just a few days ago. The dedicated animal lovers woke up to a scene of horror that day. All the dogs they had been taking care of were lying still right in front of their eyes.One of them said ” I am devastated, I feel as if they just murdered my child “. The syringes used to poison them were spread all around. The local authorities didn’t even bother to hide the evidence of what they had done. Why would they? Hellcome to Turkey. Killing dogs en masse is as common a municipal practice as garbage collection here. All the protest in the world, all the criminal charges filed against them, all the mountain of evidence piled up against them cannot stop the serial dog killer local authorities of this otherwise beautiful country. And here is what the politicians of Turkey proposed to do about all this: SHUT DOWN THIS WEB SITE!! Isnt’ that just surreal? Well dear politicİans, you may shut down this web site if you want. But that will just be a band-aid solution for you. This protest has been growing by the minute, and it is costing Turkey a lot. And it will continue to grow no matter what you do. Shut this web site down - WE WILL OPEN A NEW ONE WITHIN A MATTER OF MINUTES. In fact, this web site is the least of your problems. Let us give you a bit of a hint: all EU countries are preparing to a joint boycott of Turkey did you hear that? What will you do then dear politicans? Let’s make one thing crystal clear: we are here to stay one way or the other. And we hope that you are going to be with us in this ongoing battle against those criminal mayors. If you still haven’t signed our petition, please do so now from this link. Click here. Oh! Don’t forget to drop a line to that particular serial dog killer mayor we are talking about. Here is his email: arifdaglar@kartal.bel.tr Not to be a mere observer of all these; 1- Join the tourism boycott .Click here. 2- Send e-mails to the following adresses of Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism telling them you or your friends will never visit Turkey as long as such massacres continue.

Turkey in the EU?? Please, never!!!!!!!!!!! on July 15, 2008 at 12:19 pm Ben After having seen these atrocities, I will never go to Turkey again. Those politicians are absolutely deplorable. on July 15, 2008 at 8:49 pm sabine nowack Tourismusboykott ja!Solange dort Menschenrechte und Tierschutzgesetze nicht eingehalten werden! Und in der EU hat die Türkei auch nichts verloren!!!!!!!!!!! Das denke nicht nur ich,es werden von Tag zu Tag mehr Menschen die das gleiche denken!!!!!! on July 17, 2008 at 3:06 pm you want my social security too? The only difference between Turkey with the US or any other “civilized” country is that the street dogs do not even exist in those countries to begin with. As you probably guessed, dogs in these countries just vaporize into thin air due to loneliness they suffer from not having an owner. It has nothing to do with the state exterminating them. Dogs are very cute and affable. But you explain that to a mother whose child died of rabies after being bitten by you guessed whom. I am not supporting the way the state handles exterminating animals, but the point is that they will be exterminated as in the case with other “civilized” countries. I think there are far more important causes in the world to attend to, you guys need a reality check. on July 24, 2008 at 1:08 pm nehir First of Sabine Nowack, -I do not know if I should havre wirrten it for you in German; in case you do not understand English-it is not up to you only to decide if TÜRKİYE will be accepted to the EU or not.

WARNING , CRUEL IMAGES WILL BE December 06, 2008 1:30 PM

Well, well, well… The mayor of Kartal Mr. Arif Daglar, was proudly included in this blog earlier for his lead role in massacring dogs in his neighborhood. He must have loved what he had done! He just can not have enough…. The sequel to the Kartal massacre came just a few days ago. And what a sequel it was - the monster that you hoped had died at the end of the first movie came back in full force.

I NEVER COULDNT IMAGINE IN TURKEY SUCH DRAMAS HAPPEN AND I KNOW, YOU DIDNT KNOW, NEITHER, WE CANNOT December 06, 2008 1:36 PM

CLOSE OUR EYES ANYMORE....WHY ARE WE SURPRISED ABOUT JONAHS DRAMA?........Natural born killers do that. They develop techniques of their own (poisoning in this case), they stick to them and perfect them as they escalate (which normally happens). This particular natural born killer, the mayor of Kartal, went through a similar course of development.


In an earlier massacre in the area, he was able to kill a good number of dogs. As he perfected his dog poisoning skills, he came back to massacre even more dogs. Again, while everybody was sleeping, the monster, the natural born dog killer, struck again. And we can assure that he will keep doing so - HELLCOME TO TURKEY - a true hell on earth for animals.

We are only a handful of individuals fighting a monster that is never dying. It will not die. It is a nightmare, not on Elm street, in the heart of Istanbul, the largest city in Turkey. Even Freddie may die, but this particular monster, the Turkish mayor who is simply disgusted by dogs, will not die.

That is unless you help us.

The appetite of the monster for dog blood is insatiable. Sign it before it strikes again - give us a hand to kill the monster once and for all.

DO NOT WASTE ANOTHER SECOND. Sign the petition on this link. Click here.

Oh! Don’t forget to drop a line to that particular serial dog killer mayor we are talking about.

Here is his email: arifdaglar@kartal.bel.tr

As you will be aware, Turkey is a huge country with many municipalities, this is a huge problem and will not go away overnight, we need people to stay with us, do not get fed up thinking nothing is changing, I have seen small changes personally in some areas in just a few years.

As we get more and more support from genuine Turkish animal lovers who are brave enough to act against their corrupt officials the word will spread and they need our support so much. The rallys that took place on Oct 4th could never have been done without all the support we received and the biggest of all was in Istanbul, yes they were scared and all coverage of it was banned by the government.. even youtube is banned in Turkey. They do not have the freedom we so much take for granted, I know they truely welcome all our support and while we give it the fight will continue .

Thank you

This girl was raped !

http://i37.tinypic.com/9i77ti.jpg

This poor baby was stolen from a shelter ,when found she had had her tail cut off, this then happened again to another 5 pups.  Sadly none survived the ordeal.

This horse collapsed, his owner beat and kicked him on the street for 2 hours ,with people looking on, eventually a vet came and put the poor creature out of his misery.

Allah Seni Affetsin Türkiye / God Forgive You Turkey December 19, 2008 8:31 AM

Here is the year 2008 in review in Turkey for animals.

http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2011414&l=cef3d&id=1271426292

The year kicked off with puppies burnt to death by schoolkids in Kartal, Istanbul, and then closed with the Jonah

http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=86686&l=42ff1&id=601330489

tragedy in Van which appalled the entire world. It was not at all pleasant in between the two either as you can see from the pictures... And all of this is just the tip of the iceberg.

May God forgive Turkey for the pain and misery it is causing on animals.

We won't...

And we will let the Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan know this as well

Have a happy new year.

corner of hell in ISTAMBUL December 19, 2008 3:16 PM

The pictures you will see below http://picasaweb.google.com.tr/antalyakillers/IstanbulGungorenBarinagiIstanbulGungorenShelter# were taken by a group of animal rights volunteers at the Gungoren municipal shelter in Istanbul a few days ago. When the group got there, they noticed that the animals in the shelter had not been fed food or water for days.. You will see some dry food having been placed before some of the animals in the cages. That has been fed by volunteers, not by the municipality. Indeed, there was no municipal figure in place to take care of the animals, apart from one guy who manned the entrance gate to the shelter and that was all he was doing. Food was basically out of the question for the animals. The volunteers spotted several dead dogs inside the cages, and there was a terrible stench from their decomposing bodies. The stench of death was all around the Gungoren shelter, not metaphorically, literally... An official complaint was filed immediately following the volunteer group’s visit. And the response to that complaint was nothing short of a scandal. The team in charge of the municipality’s animal control work led by Mr. Engin Civan claimed that the shelter served stray animals “under the most appropriate and modern conditions”. When was the last time you have seen a “modern” and “appropriate” shelter whose cages are filled with the bodies of dogs starved to death? No, we are not letting anybody get away with this disaster... One of the leading news channels in our country, CNN Turk is also following this disaster closely. Today, the pictures you have seen in the album were broadcast on CNN Turk. On Monday, the CNN Turk team will contact Mr. Yucel Karaman, the mayor of Gungoren, for an explanation of the situation (we are really curious what he has to say).

Let's Adopt lance une campagne contre un massacre annoncé à Kas.
S'il vous plaît envoyez la lettre que j'ai écrite ou faites-en une à votre sauce si elle ne vous convient pas.

Pour appeler: +90 242 8361020 / 23
Ecrire: email: info@kas.bel.tr
Envoyer un SMS:
Faites vite, c'est une question de jours!

Maire de Kas, Mustafa Atılgan. Official direct line : 05323449207

Lettre modèle:

To Mr Mustafa Atilgan, Mayor or Kas.

I have been aware of the regular killing of stray dogs in your city by the Internet. I am not only horrified but disgusted by such a behaviour, besides the fact that you are acting against the laws voted in your country, and that it represents a very bad exemple for the society.

I think that people killing animals are psychos. But it’s much more threatening to hear that the authorities of a city do this, and they are supposed to regulate peace in their town. What do you think they will think of the campaign that we’re gonna launch against your actions?

Because everybody knows what you intend to do and everybody is watching you very closely from everywhere in the world. We have your mail address and phone, and you’d better be ready to hear from AR activists very soon and on a regular basis.

Just read:
http://turkeymassacre.wordpress.com/
Have you got an idea of how many people suscribed to Facebook? Well, in my group “Against the massacre of stray dogs in Turkey), there are only four thousand so far. How many friends could they spread the word towards?

This time we won’t let you kill the animals in secret. You will be pointed out by everyone, and even the citizens in your town should make a scandal at every pet found dead. If you think that the late tourists visiting the town (others will probably cancel when they will know) will be happy with this, you must have lost your mind...

I urge you to stop the killing and do your job, which means taking care of the strays your citizens probably dropped after christmas because the adorable puppy happened to grow (how can it be???) and let the organizations do the spay and neuter work in your area as all civilized countries do.

I hope Turkey will never be european until this barbary stops. I wouldn’t like to count cruel people and actions in my close neighbourhood. I actually pledge to never visit your country as well, I’m too scared of watching dogs without care in the streets. Build shelters and employ honest people to take care of them and make them adopted in good houses with civilized people. You will help restoring your image through the world.

Sincerely,

Joelle Coudriou
Paris, France

Did you see Veronica... September 21, 2009 3:42 AM

For now at least, the massacre in Kas has been stopped..

Dear Friends,

Today is one of those rare days where we can announce a victory.

Thanks to the intervention of one good man, the CHP Parlamentarian Mehmet Sevigen, the dogs of Kas have been spared execution.

Check out:

Thanks, Anne - good to hear there is at least ONE pollie with a heart in Turkey!

We ought to send this to Mr Ertugul Gunay, with his bloomin' crocodile tears!

I left a comment thanking Mr Sevigen -  taking action for animals in that hell-hole is such an exceptionally civilised and compassionate thing to do, certainly nothing like what usually happens there!
