Animal Cruelty in Vietnam - Sign Petition Here

Please sign my petition here to try and stop this

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/SouthEastAsiaAnimals/index.html

Details...
I recently visited Quirky Saigon, a 'theme park' in Saigon Vietnam (www.damsenpark.com.vn/). At the back of the park I discovered this (please see attached video - monkeys chained in cages, bears with little room to move already showing repetitive behaviours and elephants chained by their feet).

I learned about this parks whereabouts from page 871 of the Lonely Planet South East Asia Guidebook. On this page it is noted that tourists should avoid the back of the park because there is a pair of elephants there, as you can see from the video, there is more than that. Simply telling people to avoid things they might find distasteful serves no purpose and merely lines the park owners pockets with tourists money that could be better spent elsewhere.

The Lonely plant is like a travellers Bible, it has the capacity to dictate where people go and more importantly where and how they spend their money, for this reason I would ask you to sign this petition requesting that the Lonely Planet remove any further advertisements for Dam Sem Park from future editions.

Its just a sick country that has the worst cruelty towards animals ever seen in history, I have written many articles against this and am now fighting the dog trafficking trade that ends up in Vietnam as food, please read and support! cant post links so google the title: Thailand Sends In Crack Troops to Stop Vile Dog Trafficking to Vietnam!

Everyone stop fighting! it doesn't matter what race you are or what country you're from..the matter is that if you are horrible to animals you're a piece of shit >.<

@AntiBot83 I live here and I just don't know how anyone could work there. Hanging a pig by a hook through it's leg while still alive is so cruel. They might be chickens, cows, pigs lambs, but why can't we do it quickly and as painless as possible? Ever see how they raise veal? Once I witnessed that it was real easy to stop eating all meat. It isn't just the USA, it's all over the world.

[AFTERSHOCKCEX]

@jeaniemarriott: Just confirming the meaning of your comment Jeanie. Do you mean that as long as people support this sort of petition to end cruelty to animals nothing will change? You need to be explicit.

[exequielvalloso]

FU*K YOU IF YOU HURT ANIMALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CIRCUS SHOULD BE BANNED!!!!!! I just watched the news and they trained there animals with full pain! SHAME ON YOU SUC&KERS!!!!! GO TO HELL! Hey, those who hurt animals should do head spin and should walk in those burning stones!

There is good and there is bad. Without condoning this, Vietnam (and a LOT of South East Asia) have wildlife reserves where they are maintaining populations of endangered species. Orangutans in Thailand and Toucans in My Tho in Vietnam have enclosures where these animals were taken from areas (as seen in this video) where they were mistreated by their owners and are living healed and in harmony.
