Oelwein man charged with animal neglect after dead and neglected horses found on his property OELWEIN, Iowa - The Fayette County Sheriff's Office this month investigated a report of possible animal neglect and on Thursday filed charges. Larry Woods, 62, of Oelwein, a magistrate, is accused of two counts of animal neglect and two counts of failure to dispose of carcasses. The charges are misdemeanors. According to the sheriff's office, authorities executed search warrants at 8586 and 9289 N Ave. A licensed veterinarian assisted, determining horses at both locations were suffering in various stages of neglect. Eight horses were removed for treatment, but authorities did not reveal where they were taken. During the search, deputies also discovered two diseased carcasses that were not disposed of properly. According to the Iowa Judicial Branch's website, Woods is a magistrate appointed in 1992 to serve Fayette County. Previous story: The search warrants asked to enter the residence and to check the welfare of horses being kept at both locations.

Swordfish May End Up Like Bluefin Tuna If Action Isn't Taken, And Fast Postdlf/CC BY-SA 3.0 End of the Line has been in my Netflix queue for I don't know how long now and I finally watched it last night. It was as depressing as I expected, but even more terrifying than I thought it would be. The scale of overfishing is monumental. And we're taking out one species after the next, after the next. It was with that on my mind when I opened my email this morning to see this headline: Swordfish risks following in the wake of bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean. It is from the World Wildlife Fund, which is asking ICCAT to take seriously the plight of swordfish during their 22nd annual meeting this year. WWF writes, "No comprehensive management and recovery plan has ever been designed for this species – yet it is, like bluefin tuna, highly overfished. The organization is calling on ICCAT to adopt a science-based recovery plan for the species, and stat. “The current fishery is mostly based on juveniles.
Birding Dude Animal rights groups alerted police of Magnotta's alleged kitten killing videos A US animal rights group said they saw warning signs about Luka Magnotta when kitten killing videos began surfacing online in 2010. The videos depict a man in a hoodie drowning the animals, suffocating them using a vacuum bag and also feeding kittens to a python. Animal activists have connected the videos to Magnotta, but it has not been proven in court. "It was like watching the worst horror movie ever," said Shane Barbi, who along with her twin sister Sia, were among the first people to find out who was behind the killings and alert the police. "People who hate cats have control issues. The Barbi twins brought the footage to the FBI and was told it was not staged, but in order to prosecute the filmmaker, they would have to be brought to the U.S. "They lured Luka into a chatroom because of a porn job offer," Barbi said. He bragged about killing people, he said. "It wasn't a strong enough crime." "It would keep growing because it wasn't enough." "Make them register, just like child molesters."
Ask to Church to Stop Planned Pig Abuse Target: Joey Lyons, Associate Pastor of Bridge Foursquare Church Goal: Replace the Greased Pig Scramble with a more humane activity that doesn’t harm animals. The Bridge Foursquare Church in Christiansburg, Virginia, has scheduled a “Greased Pig Scramble” for their “Old-Fashioned” Fourth Of July celebration. This Scramble will consist of large groups of people chasing, grabbing at, leaping on top of, and tackling pigs in pens. There will be a lot of noise, a lot of people, and the pigs will be terrified. Pigs are highly intelligent, social animals, who are not used to screaming crowds or being chased. Sign the petition below, and ask the Bridge Foursquare Church to cancel their Greased Pig Scramble, and find a more humane way to celebrate Fourth of July. Mr. Pigs are highly intelligent, social, and loyal animals. I am asking you to find another more humane activity for your Old-Fashioned Fourth of July celebration. Sincerely, [Your Name Here]

Dingoes may control feral cats The study reveals that the relationship between cats and dingoes is subtle - while cats and dingoes often coexist, cats are less likely to hunt in their peak times if dingoes are around. Image: myself62/iStockphoto A new study, led by James Cook University researchers and published in the Journal of Applied Ecology, suggests that dingoes may be keeping feral cats at bay in northern Australia, and preventing them getting free access to native wildlife. Leila Brook, a PhD Candidate in JCU’s School of Marine and Tropical Biology, said previous studies had suggested dingoes could suppress foxes and feral cats by attacking and killing them. However, cats could still be found where there were plenty of dingoes, she said. “That makes it easy to argue that dingoes make no difference to cats. “This design allowed us to measure the effects of predator control on dingoes, and test how reduced dingo numbers might affect feral cats,” Ms Brook said.

The Culprit I Tried To Catch My late husband was a rabbit raiser. He had lots of long cages to clean daily. He often gather the dirt in one place to be transferred to a compose pit for future use as fertilizer. My neighbor's chicken would come and scratch it. This made him furious. Until one day a man came, gave me some description of a man whom somebody say got his chicken. When I went home, I saw my dear husband angrily pulling the feathers of a chicken. To make the story short, the chicken had been cooked everybody ate it including me hahahahah. That's when he opened what was the real story behind that chicken. He changed the tactic this time. Until now they didn't know it was my husband who got the chicken and that we were the ones who ate it hahahahahah.
