INFORMATION \/ TALKING POINTS<\/strong><\/div>\n
The Telegraph, a British newspaper, reports that the ban
\nagainst using animals in circuses in China went into effect
\nJanuary 18. This is huge news for the animals who spend their
\nlives in cages, tormented by humans and forced to perform. <\/strong><\/div>\n
Merritt Clifton, editor of Animal People, also reports that
\nthe number of mink that China farms and kills has decreased
\nsignificantly. As recently as 2006, the Chinese government was
\nkilling about 18 million mink per year. Currently, the number is
\naround 9 million. Here at Friends of Animals, of course, we\u2019d
\nlike that number to reach zero!<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
