๐Miyako was sent to ๐ฏ๐ต from Thailand aged just 6 mths, despite being a 'herd' animal she hasn't seen another ๐ for 52 years!! SHAME ON JAPAN ๐ฏ๐ต - TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED, EMPATHETICALLY RETARDED! @JPN_PMO@MofaJapan_en@JapanGov@MOEJ_Climate@kishida230#FreeMiyako
52 sloths are now reportedly dead because of Sloth World Orlando. They were ripped from their rainforest homes and shipped into conditions they could not survive.
Do not visit roadside zoos, petting zoos, or any facility that profits from exploiting animals.
The owners alongg with the officials who failed these poor creatures belong in jail!! The Sloth World story is getting worse and there are calls for a criminal investigation https://t.co/xZKazXQZPg

Holding little Banditโs hand as he died wouldโve been no comfort to himโsloths do not belong among humans.
If anything positive can come from all these tragic deaths, it must be a global ban on exporting sloths from the wild.
Wherever you are, on a holiday or not. Donโt ride, not an animal and not on a cart behind an animal. Donโt ride any animal ever. #AnimalLiberation#AnimalRights#AnimalJustice โ
@radiohouston@Centralflzoo No after a period of rehab (assuming they survive) a return to the wild is the Only chance they have! Sloths do not do well in captivity!
@RepMaxwellFrost This is not GOOD NEWS, unless there is a plan to return these poor creatures back to their natural habitat ? Also has anyone been held to account over this? Or in the USA can anyone with enough money get away with crimes against animals and nature?
#Sloths
31 sloths have been found dead in the despicable Sloth World in Florida.
Two sloths were dead on arrival after one shipment from Peru. Eight sloths "appeared emaciated and in very poor health" โ and later died, according to the report.
Florida wildlife officials discovered them after a routine and unannounced inspection. They say the sloths died from cold exposure and poor conditions.
Under Florida statutes, Sloth World had no obligation to report the deaths.
Sloth World should not exist. Sloths are uniquely unsuited to exposure to the stress of long transport and captivity.
Would people flock to visit if they knew of the extreme cruelty, starting with brutal capture from their forest home?
@RepMaxwellFrost Arrests need to be made here. Those responsible for the import and care of these poor creatures as well as those that sanctioned this travesty should be held to account!
Both @CITES and @MyFWC have been utterly negligent in this case which shows clearly that the current rules are NOT WORKING to protect wildlife ๐คฌ https://t.co/riYgvYYjs4
@flushingitgolf Love LIV or the PGAT , this is truly a remarkable story! Anyone pouring scorn on this incredible achievement right now simply has a dark soul
#Nepal#Chitwan NP is preparing to send 2 elephant calves, Rudrakali, 7 & Khagendra Prasad,6, as diplomatic gifts to Qatar.
The calves, born at the Elephant Centre in Khorsor, will be transported via a chartered cargo flight from Bhairahawa Airport within the next two months.
Elephants are NOT gifts but living feeling beings. Shame on Nepal for this cruel and backwards move . Seems the Nepal govt is tone deaf re conservation & animal welfare @OOP_Nepal https://t.co/XZjTp3WZcg
@Sue_Ryder Your Pinner manager REFUSED access to a wildlife rescue in favour of keeping the fox confined. Then you quietly released a fox who was likely in need of mediacl attention when the heat was on you. Totally DISINGENUOUS post from @Sue_Ryder
@Sue_Ryder@KatDoherty4 Shame on you @Sue_Ryder ! Absolutely disgusting behaviour and there is simply NO excuse for this !! Never setting foot in your shop again ever.
@Sue_Ryder@KatDoherty4 Try harder Sue Ryder. Much harder. Like...open the door. Or liaise with Moonstone Rescue who was trying to assist today and your branch manager refused access to assist the poor animal. What a sh8tty charity!
