Noah's Ark Zoo Farm Campaign - we need your help!!
Most of you probably know about the local campaign in the South West against Noah's Ark Zoo Farm following a recent undercover investigation. There is a real chance this zoo could be closed down if the campaign is strong enough. For more info about the campaign and the investigation visit http://bristolanimalrights.org.uk/join/noah%27s%20arc%20zoo%20farm.htm and http://www.captiveanimals.org
Despite
being under council investigation, they are applying for an elephant enclosure.
Anyone can object online: http://wam.n-somerset.gov.uk/MULTIWAM/showCaseFile.do;jsessionid=5765C0C6446AAEC202566D8CAA875F60?action=show&appType=Planning&appNumber=10/P/0238/F
The more objections (obviously) the better.
One of our members was on the radio this morning - you might want to have a listen :) http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p006rtzh/Breakfast_With_Steve_Le_Fevre_12_03_2010/ Forward on to 2 hours 20 minutes.
There will be national demos on Easter Saturday and Easter Monday outside the zoo from 11am - 3pm, and as there are Easter events on that weekend, we are hoping for a good turnout.
It feels
like there really is a chance this zoo could close down, so if you don't
have anything on yet on either Easter Sat or Easter Mon, and can organise
some transport from your area to the demo, that would be fab!
