Animal's Rights



Why is the giant panda called the giant panda?
Beacuse these pandas are larger than the red pandas. So to distinguish them from red pandas scientists used the word giant in front of panda. Now it became in common use.
And obviously because it grows larger than others so it is Giant.
DeViLiCiOuS =D


=) Save The Pandas !!
Humans must stop wrecking their habitats, and give them more land that can connect the fragmented forests, so they will have pathways from one safe reserve to others. If the people would give them the extra land planted with bamboo and then stay away from them, that would help! Also, we could make a petition for people to help find illegal Giant Panda poachers, and punish them to the fullest extent of the law!

Is the giant panda facing extinction?

Yes, though it is currently considered a conservation reliant endangered species. There are currently a few hundred in zoos around the world, and only a couple thousand at most in the wild. Their numbers may be rising currently, but they are still not enough to classify as vulnerable.



If we can't save the pandas, we can't save the world.

Why is the giant panda in danger of extinction?
Giant Pandas are endangered primarily from habitat loss and from the fact that they have a very low birthrate. China has put increasing pressure on their habitat in the last century from population growth and land use changes. Also, they have traditionally been poached, primarily for their fur and skin.


Why save giant panda?

We should save the Giant panda because it is important to the chinese culture. It is China's national treasure and national symbol. 

True, but what about the last China-based animal to go extint, the Yangze river dolphin? It was a big peice of pink fat with pig eyes, nothing anybody would buy if it was on a t-shirt. So, if it's not cute and cuddly, no one wants to save it. And they are spending so much money on saving the pandas. They have spent so much money, they could of just bought it's habatat as a wildlife perserve. So, lets save other animals and save trees at the same time by supporting the cause to not cut down Bamboo.


How can I help save pandas from extinction?

Preventing extinction: 



- stop hunting 
- stop pollution 
- stop destroying habitats 
- be environmentally friendly 
- inform others 
- don't litter 
- recycle 
- volunteer to help 
- zoos are raising funds for panda research and preservation 
- adopt a panda 

Pandas are becoming extinct for a few reasons, but they all come down to one factor- humans. Because of industrialization, much of the panda's only food, bamboo, is being destroyed. As people move in, pandas are forced to move out, and into tighter and tighter areas. Because the Giant Panda is only found in China, the area the panda has is already limited. Even though China is a huge country, there are going to be limitations no matter what, regarding space and resources. But as the amount of land and resources the pandas live off of becomes limited due to the activities of humans, the more pandas are competing for food, shelter, and territory. And when a panda doesn't have enough access to these key factors for survival, it will die.

Pandas are also being hunted for their valuable fur. Poachers that want to make a profit off of these animals will kill a great number of pandas every year, making the threat of extinction even greater for these animals. Pandas do not have offspring very often, and when they do, they usually only have one at a time. This means that the pandas killed by poachers are not being replaced by a sufficient number of panda cubs.

We can protect these creatures from extinction by raising awareness about these animals. In order to save pandas, or any other seriously endangered animal, people need to know about the growing need for action against the dangers to the animals. Scientists continue to research panda bears to try and understand them better, which may aid in saving the animals later on. Certain organizations are helping to support the research and conservation of the pandas. Zoos worldwide are attempting to raise pandas in captivity to raise the panda population.



See how cute and special they are, Save them !!


Hope that helps!

Chinese & Koreans At Their Worst - Killing and eating dogs and cats !!
Dog Cruelty - Eating Dogs


On The Baning Of Eating Cats And Dogs In China And Korea !!

This is a wake up call for all westerners who love dogs and cats and who keep them as valued members of their families. Did you know that in Korea there is an evil, cruel practice of killing dogs for food.  Dog meat is touted as being a substance which can boost the sexual prowess of men.  The fact that this theory is absolutely false, makes no difference.  A profitable commerce has been established. Big money is involved and has corrupted the Government.

Dogs, waiting their turn & knowing the cruel end they are about to meet.
The eating of dogs for food is not a new controversy for South Korea, as this photo from 1988 indicates.  The photo originally accompanied a story on dog meat sales by The Sun'sLorrie Goldstein during the 1988 Seoul Olympics.  The government banned the killing of dogs for food, in locations frequented by visitors, during the Olympics.  They were afraid of upsetting Westerners visiting their country.
The Koreans who eat these poor dogs, take great delight in watching the poor animals die, wagging their tails in a last moment's desperate, but futile plea for mercy. It is believed the more the dog suffers in death, the better tasting the meat! You better believe it, they know how to make it prolonged and painful.  Slow hanging and burning the hair off with propane torches is common practise. Cats receive equal treatment, shoved into sacs which are then smashed against brick walls until the poor animals are pulverized. Then they are liquified in blender machines and sold as drinks.
Let it be clearly understood, we, at Dogbiz.com are not anti-Korean, and since this wicked, greedy practice, is strictly for money, nor can it be considered interfering with their culture. That is a common misconception some westerners have, usually because they don't have all the facts. We are dog lovers, and we just want this slaughter stopped. Many Koreans have told us, they want it stopped too, Saying that "they are ashamed and embarrassed".
Well, it is up to the Korean people themselves to stop this evil practice. Eventually, they will bring this slaughter to an end. For dog and cat lovers worldwide, including Korea, that time cannot come quick enough.


Something To Think About !!
Dogs and man have been living together, helping each other, for more than 30,000 years according to anthropoligists. That represents about 1000 generations. Geneticists believe the figure is closer to 100,000 years.
They were dangerous times, 30,000 years ago. Man's weapons for hunting and protection were primitive and enemies were everywhere, two legged and four. Often, a dog's warning of danger was how a man survived. If a dog saved the life of its master 30,000 years ago, then all descendants of that man, also owe their existence to that dog. Supose a man had two children in each generation and that there have been 1000 generations since that time, it means that 2 to the power of 1000 or 21000 would represent the number of people today, who owe their existence to that dog. That number, 21000 is a number greater than all the people who have ever lived! Saving its master's life was common place until fairly recent times. In the last 300 years St. Bernards alone, have been credited with saving over 3000 people from snow avalanches in Europe. Think about how many people today owe their existence to those St. Bernards.  Newfoundland Dogs, better not forget them, because over the decades they have saved countless children, adults, and shipwrecked mariners from drowning. It doesn't take a genius to figure that every man and woman on the face of this earth probably owes his/her existence to some dog, way back. Don't you think that dogs have earned special protected status, worldwide. We do!




Heres a video of it, its a fact !!



What can we do about this insidious practice ?
Boycott all products made in Korea

We at Dogbiz.com have joined the boycott of all goods manufactured in Korea. We ask you to do the same. Everyone has the right to this decision. If the practice of slaughtering dogs and cats upsets you, you certainly have the right to choose other products. It is very easy. Just look at the label to discover where the product was made. If it was made in Korea, look some more. Spread the word to all dog and cat lovers and ask them to help. Tell the Korean government embassy in your country that you won't buy their goods.

STOP THIS CRUELTY !!

 To be honest, I was amazed and I wished I were one of the students here when I was In my secondary school life. This place is wide and you have everything within the campus. There are a lot of cool vendor machines as well as cafes. There’s a huge food court at the bottom of the building. Also, you will get to meet different people from different programs.

Taylor’s University College had an orientation on March for intake students 2 weeks ago. It’s for those who are taking Mass Communication, IT & Business course who are studying in Lakeside Campus and basically there’s many courses available at the Lakeside Campus except Pre-U studies. The reason I pick this university college is because it have many well prepared facilities and the environment is very good at here. Here are some photos and inner details I would like to share with you all below.

Challenge your friends to foosball and pool, the staple games of college goers.


One of my favourite places in this campus is the library. I love the library a lot. However, I don’t think I would be able to concentrate to study in this comfortable place in the campus because the library is seemed to be a social ground more than silent study place.

LT 5 - Lecturing Hall 5

Many people are not eager to shift to the Lakeside campus. The reasons are the college consists of too many students, which causes the chances of getting a parking slot is harder and the food are so much more expensive.

On my first day going to the Lakeside campus, I was really scared of one thing and it is finding for a car park slot. After a while, I found that it wasn't that hard after all. There were guards that lead me to the parking area. In a minute, I found a parking slot after a few turns around the car park, am I lucky that day ? Well, I guess It was still early when I reach around 7.30a.m. in the morning. 



After 11.00a.m.




After 11.00a.m.








Besides that, students are required to wear a proper attire to the college the rule of the college. The classes are almost the same size but it is colder than the classes in Leisure Commerce Square. It's more comfortable here. In addition, students who are late are considered attended a particular class or lecture despite their reasons of arriving late.

Desert Bar
During the break period, I went to a stall called Desert Bar for breakfast. I agree with people who says the food here are a more expensive then the other colleges because even a simple sandwich could costs RM10.
For lunch, I decided to go to the food court to try out the food there. The price of the food there very reasonable. Yeap. Extremely Reasonable! However, the food court was like going bananas. I can hardly search for a seat to have my lunch !!
