If you live in the UK, please join PETA, other animal-protection organisations, and a host of public figures – including Joanna Lumley and Deborah Meaden – in calling for a ban on the use of cruel confinement systems on UK farms <strong><a href=”https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/243448″>by signing the petition</a></strong>.

Sandhill cranes rattled, trumpeted and bugled as they took flight. Opportunistic omnivores, their varied diet includes waste corn, small mammals, amphibians, insects, reptiles and snails. Northern harriers return when the snow leaves the fields. Once called a marsh hawk, it courses low over the ground while hunting small mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds and insects. They locate some prey by sound.

Two decades later, and it seems that the liquid coaster model never gained traction for Premier. The model is no longer listed on Premier’s website. The company opened only one other: Vonkaputous at Linnanmäki. It operated from 2001 until 2017:

Pigs suffer a similar fate. Farrowing crates hold pregnant pigs from a week before their due date until their piglets are weaned at around 3-4 weeks. They are used to reduce piglet mortality by preventing the sow from accidentally crushing them, but severely restrict the sow’s movement so that she is unable to walk or even turn around.

Late in life, Tika developed a malignant tumor and had to have her leg amputated. She had trouble getting around and, as she was recovering from the surgery, Kobuk wouldn’t leave Tika’s side. Kobuk stopped shoving her aside or minding if she was allowed to get on the bed without him. About two weeks after Tika’s surgery, Kobuk woke Anne in the middle of the night. He ran over to Tika. Anne got Tika up and took both dogs outside, but they just lay down on the grass. Tika was whining softly, and Anne saw that Tika’s belly was badly swollen. Anne rushed her to the emergency animal clinic in Boulder, where she had life-saving surgery.

"Both Knight and Baxter show that piglet mortality is complicated," says Carter. "SAFE’s submission shows that alternative housing systems for sows are able to provide for the welfare needs of sows and piglets. Farrowing crates are already banned in Norway, Sweden and Switzerland."

Use of a simple “causal” pie chart is proving to be a helpful tool for controlling necrotic enteritis (NE), Joel L. Cline, DVM, a veterinarian with Wayne Farms, told Poultry Health Today.

I am pretty certain that I heard a Red Winged Blackbird a few days ago. I could be wrong, but it sure sounded like one. The Red Winged Blackbird and the Western Meadowlark are my two favorite birds. I’ve also seen a mountain bluebird and yesterday a Robin. Still waiting to spot a Meadowlark.

What are some areas in life that you see yourself not being content? Is it material things? You know that those are usually just shiny things that break or are obsolete in just a matter of days, weeks, or short months. The newest pickup on the road can break down. The top of the line cell phone can drop out of a shirt pocket and be gone under a trailer tire. (Not that I would be speaking from any kind of experience.)
