Leah Garc , WSPA Director of Campaigns, said,
There are a number of proven humane culling methods for

Lethal injection of anaesthetic infosys
All of these methods, when administered correctly, could

alive. lap top
WSPA applies pressure for humane culling policies refurbished
WSPA continues to lobby the FAO, OIE and WHO stressing that
animals must be culled as humanely as possible. memory
WSPA has also offered to advise in the development of the
poultry industry in countries that have been hit by avian flu
in order to improve animal welfare and future disease
control. intel
Worldwide, billions of animals on industrial farms live in
overcrowded and poorly ventilated environments; these are prime
conditions for disease. as400
The repeated outbreaks of animal diseases in Asia in recent
years may be linked to the over-expansion of industrial animal
agriculture. averatec

Whalewatch speaks out against Norwegian whaling
season mainframe
Whalewatch, the international anti-whaling coalition, has
spoken out against Norway plans to increase its commercial
whale hunt quota this year. samsung
As the Norwegian whaling season got underway this week,
Whalewatch condemned the activity as ruel and
unnecessary. /P computer repair
The whaling season will be the largest hunt in decades, with
the quota of Minke whales due to be slaughtered up from 796 to
1050. used computers
Jennifer Lonsdale of the Environmental Investigation Agency,
a member of the coalition said: network
orway is the only country in the world that
commercially hunts whales, despite the international ban on
commercial whaling. They have also now removed human inspectors
from whaling vessels in favour of automated data-collection
devices which makes it almost impossible to record animal
welfare information during whaling. digital cameras
ndercover filming carried out during the previous
whaling season has shown that it can take up to 14 minutes for
a whale to die from a grenade-tipped harpoon; this kind of
cruelty has no place in our society. There is no humane way to
kill a whale at sea. /P desktops
The Whalewatch coalition believes it is time that all
commercial and scientific whaling ceased on grounds of cruelty
alone. cognos
In June, the 2006 meeting of the International Whaling
Commission (IWC) will take place in St Kitts Nevis.
Whalewatch hopes that the current ban against commercial
whaling will be upheld. hosting
This year the pro-whaling countries lead by Japan, Iceland
and Norway may have a voting majority. netfinity
Whalewatch will be urging IWC member countries to reject any
compromise deal that could bring back commercial whaling and
instead vote to keep the whaling ban in place. internet

Britain must adopt recommended standards if bird flu
outbreak leads to mass cull cheap laptops
The government must adopt a humane culling policy if it is
to successfully maintain animal welfare standards in the event
of a mass slaughter of poultry following the first confirmed
case of avian flu in Britain, according to the World Society
for the Protection of Animals (WSPA). wholesale
In 2003 the WSPA presented a dossier to the World
Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) outling inhumane culling
methods across Asia and, in collaboration with the University
of Bristol, developed recommendations on effective and humane
culling methods for governments to follow in the event of an
H5N1 outbreak. brother
WSPA Chief Veterinary Adviser, David Wilkins MBE MA MRCVS,
said: f a mass cull proves necessary in Britain humane
slaughter and the confirmation of death before disposal will be
vital if animals are to be culled as quickly and painlessly as

He added: Ongoing outbreaks of avian flu around the world
have seen millions of poultry inhumanely killed. Chickens have
been beaten, buried alive, poisoned, left in bins to die and
even set on fire while still alive. This kind of knee-jerk
reaction is completely unacceptable as effective and humane
standards formulated and published by the OIE are available to
all countries. camera
The WSPA own recommendations include using gas, hand

y planning an evacuation in coordination with the local
