The Captive Animals’ Protection Trust
August 2006
The Trust is a new registered charity, (Charity Number 1104400), and the official sister organisation of the Captive Animals’ Protection Society.
Just like CAPS their strong ethics stay the same and they are totally against the use of all animals for the entertainment industry – this includes zoo, circuses and the exotic pet trade.
The main aims of the Trust are working to prevent cruelty and to promote respect for animals through education.
So, we hear you ask, just how are they going about this all-worthy task?
Well, first of all, why not log on to the brand new website that is now up and running and can be found at www.animalprotection.org.uk.
It is still quite new and is always being updated with new sections so it will definitely get bigger and better over the coming months!
The Trust has various projects on the go at the moment, which are:
Producing materials for use in educational establishments and for the general public
Writing lesson plans on the subject of captive animals, which follow the national curriculum guidelines and can be used in schools
Offering ideas as alternatives to zoo visits and
Organizing a database of speakers who give presentations on the plight of captive animals
(If you are interested in becoming a speaker or would like to get in touch please send an e-mail to: trust@animalprotection.org.uk)
We know that some day animals will be given the respect they deserve and will be seen as the equal beings that they are but until then, the Trust will continue their work of education to build a kinder world.
