libya 115 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 SOURCE: Pattaya Mail: March 23rd Edition From Letter (mailbag) pages: Monkey in distress Editor; May I put your readers’ attention to one very distressing thing I have noticed? In the middle of Soi 14 running between Pattaya Third Road (east side) and Soi Arunothai in the middle of the street bend there is a monkey caged under appallingly poor conditions. It has been so for years! One can really wonder why people around don’t care more or have a heart, mind and spirit or basic love for an animal that is so close to us in nature? Is it at all legal to keep animals like this in Thailand? I’m a kind of newcomer in the field of animal protection, but is there anyone out there who has an idea of what is possible and reasonable to do to help the monkey from uneducated, uncaring, senseless humans? Can anyone connect me to people, organsiations, etc., that work with protecting the “rights of animals” so to speak? Is there anything we can do? I would be glad to hear from anyone about this. “N.A. the Saviour” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freckle Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 That's harsh. Maybe the girls aren't the prettiest and the bar not the cleanest but I think the author is taking the description of that bar and those girls a little too far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gharknes Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 walked past it a few times and it's a disgrace, one of the local animal parks may be interesred, the Thais probably wouldn't think of asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
