Earthlings

There is a moment of hope and then sets in an eternity of gloom. Now people have themselve taken the onus of making Bangalore stray free. Five dogs were poisoned by unknown people in a locality. There is another woman in my area who has openly threatened to poison perfectly healthy, playful dogs on her street. I don't really know how many more such people are there. I think the Malabar killers and such lunatics who stop at nothing but killing are equally worse. What would make sense to them? Laws, appeals, logical arguments?

Oh and by the way, the 2 Malabar killers arrested in Kolar for killing 200+ healthy dogs have been released within a day. May be this is where such fronts come into being.

On a different note, I would ask you to watch Earthlings. Eathlings is a documentary narrated by Golden Globe Winner (Best Actor, Walk the Line) Joaquin Phoenix, directed by Shaun Monson, featuring music by the critically acclaimed artist Moby. It has won various awards at Boston, San Diego and Artivist Film Festivals. Thought provoking and extremely well made, I would still warn you. Some footage might be disturbing.
Highly recommended.

Meanwhile, here is a link to Earthlings video.

Pradeep, thanks for the link.
