Attack "Sharikov"

A wave of poisoning of stray animals swept through Russia. Pets were injured and pets

Moscow parliamentarians intend to contact the State Duma with a proposal to tax owners of pets, as well as introduce mandatory registration and passporting of pets. According to the deputies of the Moscow City Duma, such measures will force citizens more responsibly to their favorites, and will also help the authorities bear the costs of maintaining shelters and keep records of hopeless animals. The problem of homeless dogs was updated in Russia this week, when the doghanters stated that they intend to scatter the poison in parks and squares across the country. Cases of dog poisoning, and not only homeless, were recorded in many Russian cities.

Doghanters used a tuberculosis medicine - harmless to humans, but fatal for dogs. In the places where it was spilled, spots of pinkish color remained in the snow. Even in contact with these marks and inhalation of fumes, according to animal owners, dogs of acute poisoning occurred in dogs. Many pets died, on the streets of large cities found corpses of stray dogs. The dead animals and the poison scattered in the snow were reported, in particular, from Yekaterinburg, Chelyabinsk, Nizhny Novgorod, Murmansk, Tula, Yaroslavl, Vladivostok, St. Petersburg.

The Radio Liberty correspondent in Chelyabinsk, Alexander Valiev, confirmed that in the city this week, zoo defenders found many pink spots in the snow - traces of a drug, deadly for dogs and freely released in pharmacies. In social networks, many observers have already reproached the zoo defenders in the fact that, commenting on the campaign of doghanters, they openly called the drug that they use. Like, why make this poison additional advertising? Maria Zueva, the coordinator of the Center for Protection of the Rights of Animal Vita in Chelyabinsk, says that such information, unfortunately, is in abundance on the Internet, it is easy to find, but it is almost useless to deal with such sites. Some close, others immediately appear. Over the past week, several dogs died from the poison in Chelyabinsk.

“They scattered either rat poison everywhere or a drug for tuberculosis, this was evidenced by numerous pink spots on playgrounds, near garbage, in the green zone where dogs are walking,” says Maria Zueva. - We did not conduct detailed statistics of the death of animals, but there were definitely cases of poisoning. In the Denisov clinic, such a dog, unfortunately, could not save, and in other clinics there was evidence that the dogs died. Even the dog died in the private sector, which did not walk on the street - they threw the poison through the gate.

Chelyabinsk zoo defenders are sure: the doghanters need to fight, tightening the punishment for both them and for irresponsible animal owners who abandon them to their fate. To do this, all pets need to be put on strict records, as well as create state shelters for homeless pets.

The Radio Liberty correspondent in Yekaterinburg Denis Rubov said that the veterinary clinics did not mark the receipt of poisoned or crippled animals. Yekaterinburg zoo defenders report a single case of dog poisoning. So, someone fired at a homeless dog from traumatic weapons, funds were raised on its treatment at the city Internet forum.

According to Anna Pavlova , a specialist in public relations of the Zoozamita Foundation, in Yekaterinburg there is no organized cell of doghanters. Individuals who scatter poison or hunting for dogs with weapons are those who were inspired by materials from the sites of Moscow doghanters. But in the cities of the Sverdlovsk region, several cases of mass destruction of animals occurred. The corpses of dogs lying on the streets are reported from Nizhny Tagil, from Kamensk-Uralsky. The case of mass murder of dogs occurred in the city of Nizhny Sergi. According to eyewitnesses, dogs fired from pneumatic weapons with poison with pneumatic weapons. Destroyed indiscriminately - stray dogs, dogs in collars and even sitting on a leash.

The administration of the city of Nizhny Sergi reports that no shootings or trails of dogs at that time were carried out by city services - apparently, just the doghanters acted. The owners of the dead and injured dogs in the Lower Serges are going to contact the police demanding to hold the lifers accountable.

According to the Radio Liberty correspondent in Nizhny Novgorod Veronika Genkina, the problem of publishing animals for the region is not new. In the plot on local television this week, they talked about the case of dog poisoning in the Lyskovsky district of the Nizhny Novgorod region. Pets were also injured. In the latest Novgorod, new cases of dog poisoning were not recorded, but two weeks before the promises of doghunters in social networks they wrote about the scattered poison in the Kanavinsky, Sormovsky and Avtozavodsky districts of the city. They also say a lot about the fact that the message about the action of doghunters contributes to the abuse of aggression in those who do not like animals. Some residents pour pink paint on sites, where they usually walk with animals to scare away dog owners.

According to Irina Novozhilova, the president of the Center for Protection of Rights of Animal Rights, the problem of breeding dogs is rooted in the marginalization of Russian society, and it will not be possible to solve it until the doghunters whom the human rights activist prefers to call modern "balls" will provide the stands on the central television channels:

-The problem has long gone beyond the relationship of human and animals. And here the question is already about the degradation of our society, about its marginalization. In whose interests this is done is a big question. This problem has been discussing for seven years, and they have not done anything in order to solve it, while stars, famous people, the whole color of the nation are on the shares and are asking to ban this terror ... Psychiatrists also talk about this in unison. And the stands are given on the central channels

All that is is the 245th article of the Criminal Code of Brief handling of animals, but in our environment it is called disabled. She doesn't work at all

People are inadequate, who already need psychiatric help, who have hands on the elbow in the blood! In whose interests this is done? This will be the answer to the question, why does this last for so long? After all, it does not occur to anyone to invite maniacs to the TV so that they talk about their philosophy. But these people are talking about their philosophy everywhere. And their philosophy is anti -state in nature. The assertion of the opinion that any unresolved problems can be solved through violence, through murder - this is the path to further aggression within society, criminalization of society. Because today these are homeless dogs, and tomorrow it will be a neighbor who somehow angry, the day after tomorrow it will be children screaming in the sandbox. Further, this is already non -notostable.

According to Irina Novozhilova, the existing norms of Russian legislation regarding animal rights are almost not applied in practice:

People who stand behind this "movement of the ball" have the same missions as killer maniacs

- If we talk about the Russian legal framework for protecting animals from cruelty, then it is zero. Because all that is is the 245th article of the Criminal Code of Carrying out animals, but in our environment it is called disabled. She doesn't work at all. Cases when she worked, can be counted simply on the fingers. This is a combination of circumstances with a huge number of press, when all this became public. The well -known case of the murder of a dog is a boy in the subway, when a star was erected to a dog. This is the murder of a dog Ryzhik, when meetings in the Moscow City Court were accompanied by protests, because it was all in front of people. And in other cases, this does not work. The article itself has a lot of flaws. Firstly, the wording of "cruelty" is very narrow: if there is injury or death followed. This does not apply to a number of states when animals tolerate deprivations. For example, they are closed in the basement, in the alive, two weeks are sitting without water and food. Further in the disposition to this article it is indicated that the crime should be committed from sadistic motives, from selfish motives or in the presence of minors. Who and when from maniacs admitted that they did this from sadistic motives?! They come up with missions. And these missions in all textbooks of psychiatry are described. People who are behind this "movement of the ball" have the same missions, that is, the cleaning of the city. They supposedly perform the function of such cleaners. Famous maniacs suffered the same, ”said Irina Novozhilova, president of the animal protection center of animal rights.

The Internet is now being collected by signatures under the appeal to the ministers of agriculture and healthcare of Russia with a demand to cancel the over -the -so -so -so -so -tuberculosis drugs, which are used by doghanters as a means of killing animals.
