Guest guest Posted April 17, 2003 Report Share Posted April 17, 2003 Short notice I know -- but here is an exceptional conference on "improving the comfort of the cows" or should I say "comfort of the bulls" in the UK next Thursday. The conference is being organized by Paul Starkey, who is probably the world's leading expert on the subject of care and comfort of draught animals, and who has organized many events in countries around the world. Syamasundara prabhu, naturally I think of devotees working with you at Bhaktivedanta Manor. Do you think there is any possibility that you or someone else could attend this? The conference takes on heightened significance because they are talking about solutions especially geared toward poorer countries. There could be much valuable information to correct the substandard practices of the Vrndavana and Mayapur projects -- but unfortunately, there is no possibility of anyone from India attending -- especially on such short notice. Thus, only if devotees in the UK can attend is there a possibility of passing on design, housing and feeding information which could help improve the comfort of ISKCON bullocks/oxen around the world. Again, I stress that the emphasis will be on *low-cost* methods to improve the welfare and comfort of draught animals. Let us know if you think anyone can attend. your servant, Hare Krsna dasi http://www.chakra.org/announcements/AOtherApr10_03.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
