ACTION!

ANIMALS ASIA FOUNDATION - YOU CAN HELP SAVE MOON BEARS FROM HORRENDOUS CAPTIVITY

Pictures - with thanks to AnimalsAsia - show the dramatic move from captivity to rescue. You can make this happen.

NEW!! A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF THOSE WHO HAVE CAMPAIGNED

BEAR BILE WRITTEN DECLARATION IS ADOPTED AT THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT

366 signatures were needed for the Written Declaration to pass, 377 MEPs signed. The issue will now be forwarded to the President, to be announced in Plenary. The Declaration will also be forwarded to the institutions named in the text, together with the names of the signatories.

Written Declarations are so rarely passed, its fantastic that Members recognised the importance of the issue. It is hoped that the momentum continues, resulting in further political pressure and public debate.

Dear Mr. Chen Run Sheng and Directors of the CWCA,

We would like to express our grateful thanks and appreciation for your commitment in developing programmes that are helping wild, domesticated and endangered species in China.

We support your recent statements on behalf of the Chinese Central Government in working with the Animals Asia Foundation towards ending bear farming once and for all and sincerely encourage the achievement of this goal by the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

As Members of the European Parliament Animal Welfare Intergroup, we further encourage you in all your endeavours to replace bear bile with the cheap and effective herbal and synthetic alternatives.

Yours sincerely,

Jean Lambert, Green Party MEP for London

Caroline Lucas, Green Party MEP for the South East of England and Vice President of the Animal Welfare Intergroup
