This is really inhumane and barbaric.In India Bears have been barred from

performances/exhibition and training by Circuses,Street shows etc.The tribe

dealing with bears is called kalanders,a scheme for rehbilitating the bears

liberated from them as well as to provide alternative livilihood to the owners

have been planned by Ms.Maneka Gandhi,Former Union Minister of India and

internationally reknowned animal rights personality .

A bear sanctury has been set up at Agra.

Hi Patricia:

I saw the news, about the bear fight, I got very angry and sad, I don't know

what we can do,

Pakistan is so far, no one can help, Even they are playing around with nulear

weapons but nobody can stop them....

 

Best wishes
