This is just absolutely terrible! (Though don't cry, the dog in the above pic is only sleeping, we promise.)

In Mokattam, Eqypt government vets are literally poisoning stray dogs!!

After two children were violently attacked by strays, their families pressured vets to kill off the dogs.

What's crazy is they've been using strychnine, a deadly pesticide.

That means that there's just poison in the streets, so anyone and other animal life can get really sick and die as well.

Who would do such a despicable thing!

Five pit bull puppies were poisoned during an education event in Pennsylvania.

A Darrah Bull Bully Rescue held the event in hopes of inform dog lovers about the misconceptions behind pit bulls.

In Texas, almost an entire heard of cattle died for an unknown reason.

It was just found out that the die-off was linked to genetically modified grass.

A group of commercial beekeepers has filed a petition to ask the EPA to regulate the use of a pesticide that has proved toxic to honey bees.

These chemicals kill certain insects but are supposed to leave the good ones (in this case bees) unharmed.

But what happened is the poison can lead to a weakened immune system in the bees, which could contribute to colony collapse disorder.

Colony collapse disorder is where all the adult honeybees in a colony suddenly die or disappear.

Other countries have already banned these types of insecticides.

A professor of entomology (bug doctor) said:

"The EPA admits that their testing has not been adequate to determine the impact of this chemical on bees and pollinators."

So maybe it's time for the EPA takes another look at the pesticides they allow to be used.

The bees are vital to over one-third of all of America's crops.

Save the bees!

How horrible!!!

A man in Montana is currently being held on a $30,000 bail for INTENTIONALLY getting his dog DRUNK!!

The dog’s partial owner told officers that Todd Harold Schrier gave his 20-pound Pomeranian a “to-go cup of vodka,” which caused poor little Arly to get alcohol poisoning!

Arly couldn’t even stand up when he was found and had a blood-alcohol level of 0.348 percent!! The vet who treated the dog said that for humans, a 0.4 percent alcohol level could be FATAL!!

The dog spent a few days at an animal hospital and is now at the Humane Society until the animal cruelty case comes to a close.

We hope Arly is okay after this whole ordeal!!!! We cannot imagine why ANYONE would do this to their pet!!
