Deanimals in Murcia – always fighting for animal welfare
I’ve written in the past about Deanimals of Murcia, the lawyers who take on prosecution cases of animal welfare and run training courses for lawyers, police, judges, veterinarians and anyone else involved with animals, training them to carry on in all corners of Spain the work Deanimals pioneered. Founding lawyer Raquel tells me she now has many lawyers doing similar work around Spain and the Canary Islands.This story is about an aspect of their work…it’s not about galgos, it’s about circus animals. I have always abhorred the use of animals in circus, especially ‘wild animals’…travelling all over the place, in cramped conditions, being forced to perform unnatural acts.
There was outrage in Paris recently when a rare white tiger from a circus was shot dead after escaping from its prison. my research shows that in October 2015 France had no ban on wild animals in travelling circuses, of which there are many in France. Further research now states there are 65 communes in France which ban wild animals in circuses. Sadly the one in which I live in 79, and surrounding communes, does not.

When will they punish the right end of the lead?
I am a strong believer in controlling the mass over-breeding of dogs…galgos and podencos in particuler…but ALL breeds. The misery and suffering of dogs is caused by the human creature and so I publish here a thought-provoking verse by Debra Jefferson. -
