Should we build a new community there on Mastodon, or move here to BlueSky?

Hamsters, rabbits, reptiles, fish and other small animals treated as commodities by Pets At Home are also not Christmas gifts or toys.

Support Rescue Not Retail and the animal rescues that deal with the abandoned animals, collateral victims of the pet trade.

Transitioning to a plant-based diet is one of the most impactful personal choices for planetary health. Beyond ethics, the logical conclusion from environmental science is clear: less land, water, and emissions. It's truly a win-win. #GoVegan

A traditional Boxing Day hunt in Devon has been declared “not welcome” by the local council after Chris Packham labelled it “ethically & morally bankrupt”.

Tiverton town council overwhelmingly voted to back a motion declaring: “The hunt meet is not welcome in […]

[Original post on social.coop]
A picture of a banner is captioned: "Tiverton Town Council overwhelmingly voted to declare Boxing Day trail-hunting meet ‘not welcome’ Credit: Mark Passmore / Alamy Stock Photo" More text from article: The Tiverton Foxhounds, who have been hunting in mid-Devon for 200 years, have traditionally met on Dec 26 outside the Half Moon pub in the town square. Hunting a fox with a pack of hounds has been illegal in England and Wales since 2005. However, packs of foxhounds have been allowed to continue trail-hunting, where dogs follow an artificial scent rather than a fox. Animal rights campaigners claim the practice is simply used as cover to continue hunting illegally. The Tiverton vote is the first time that local councillors have rejected the practice and comes after Mr Packham described those who participate in the Boxing Day tradition as “ethically and morally bankrupt sociopathic savages”. Steve Bush, a Labour district councillor, said that Mr Packham had been in touch with him to pledge his support for the motion and Mr Bush read out a statement from the presenter at the meeting, according to local press reports. A photo of Chris Packham has caption: Chris Packham has asked local councillors to ‘put an end to this horrific spectacle’ Credit: Jordan Pettitt / PA Wire More text from article: ‘Redundant, illegal and vile’ In it, Mr Packham said voting against the motion would “besmirch the reputation of Tiverton” and added: “Fox hunting is a redundant, illegal and vile anathema which has no place in a world in the grip of the catastrophic loss of wildlife.” He asked councillors to “put an end to this horrific spectacle, which seeks to normalise and legitimise cruelty and suffering”. The motion was passed with 10 votes in favour, two against and eight abstentions. While the town council does not have the legal authority to ban the hunt, which is organised independently, the vote is a blow to supporters. The Tiverton Boxing Day hunt has become increasingly controversial. Last year a petition was signed by more than 4,000 people demanding it be banned and a council motion doing that was rejected by only one vote. Polly Portwin, the director of the campaign for hunting at the Countryside Alliance, said: “The annual Tiverton Boxing Day meet is a much loved festive event that is enjoyed by many and provides invaluable support to local rural businesses.
