Advocates for Animals is one Britain's top animal protection organsiations. Leading the fight against animal abuse and the use of animals in experiments.

They work to prevent the likes of the following story happen :-

The Dog Dump

They look very much like bottle banks.
Officials of Rutherford County, Tenessee, have placed three concrete bunkers at the side of a road, each with a metal chute at the front and a door at the back. Anyone with an unwanted pet is encouraged to simply dump the animal down the appropriate chute.
The biggest bunker, measuring 8ft by 8ft by 5ft is for large dogs. A second, 6ft by 8ft by 5ft, is for small dogs and puppies. The third, 4ft by 8ft by 5ft, is for cats and kittens.
Signs on the bunkers state : The Council sends a control worker twice a day to pick up the animals which are kept for 2 days before being destroyed. A spokeman for Rutherford County said that they had a "really bad problem with people dumping unwanted pets". He continued : We can't persuade them to bring their pets to the animal shelter. Maybe they thinks its going to cost them something. Anyway the bins
seem to work and they are not as cruel as the sound. (What the F.....)
 

Anyway here's ten facts about Advocates for Animals.

1. AFA was formed in 1912 and is one Britain's leading animal protection organsiations. It campaigns against all forms of animal abuse and in particular the use of animals in experiments.

2. AFA campaigns for the total abolition of animal experiments.

3. AFA is opposed to stag, fox and mink hunting, hare-coursing and other cruelties to wild animals. As the infliction of pain, suffering and death for fun has no place in a civilised society.

4. The AFA is strongly opposed to intensive farming (eg battery cages and bolier unites for hens, sow stalls, veal crates) which prevent animals from indulging in their natural behavioural patterns.

5. Farm animals should be allowed sufficient freedom of movement to enable them, without difficulty, to move around, use their limbs, see and groom themselves. This does not happen on “factory farms”.

6. If animals must be slaughtered for food, they should be granted the dignity of being reared with some thought for their well being and when the time comes slaughtered humanely without distress.

7. The AFA is against export of live animals for slaughter, such animals must be slaughtered as close to their home as possible.

8. AFA is opposed to the use of animals in circuses. To force an animal to do un-natural tricks causes pain and suffering during training and is degrading to the animal, also the conditions under which the animals travel and are kept are unacceptable.

9. The AFA deplores dog control measures in Britain where 1000 dogs (and twice as many cats) are killed every day.
