To the people out there who want to make money from animals and don't give a hoot about their well-being, there are many people and organisations out there watching and waiting to foil you. All of us who care can and will keep fighting to minimilise, or even better, eradicate all animal abuse. The EU seal ban was a fantastic victory and congratulations and thank you so much to all who made it happen. Congratulations BF on another great year of successes.

It is undeniable that the idea of giving in can pass ones mind. To help me in times of difficulty, I think of the fantastic work that foundations like Born Free, Animals Asia, and Sheldrick's, just to name a few, are doing and I also think of all those amazing individual humans that are dedicating all or part of their time to help animals and/or raise awareness and give a voice to those that do not possess one. I am so proud to support these foundations and they give me the strength to continue doing my little bit. Thank you Born Free for all you do - the world would be a very sad place without you.

Thanks to Will and Born Free for continuing to give us all the chance to learn.

I watched the video footage of animals held in captivity in zoos and it just broke my heart to see the mental and physical suffering that these poor animals have to endure day after day. It has to stop now! Hopefully Will will be relaying this story in the future as an example of another glass half full!! I hope it is soon for all of those poor animal's sake.
