Rabies update nimal rabies nationwide appears to be leveling off, according to Dr. Greg Parham of the federal Centers for Disease Control inA Atlanta, GA, although some local trouble spots will continue to have record numbers of cases. There were about 6000 cases of rabies in animals in the US in 1980 and more than 7000 in 1981. Parham believes the 1982 total will drop back to 6000--a high enough number but nevertheless a decrease. One of the local trouble spots includes northern Virginia, western Maryland and southern Pennsylvania. Fairfax County, VA, has declared a rabies epidemic, and all high risk animals (raccoon, fox, skunk, bat and woodchuck) received by the Department of Animal Control are being destroyed rather than relocated in the wild as usual. These animals are being tested for rabies, and about 10% are infected. The county is also holding rabies clinics for pet animal vaccination. Health officials believe the epidemic may continue through the summer.

Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA Seeks Special Adopter for Blind Senior
Tom and Annette Lantos Center for Compassion 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010-2307 650-340-7022 • 650-685-8428 fax • www.PHS-SPCA.org Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA Seeks Special Adopter for Blind Senior Dog Burlingame, CA— The Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA (PHS/SPCA) is seeking potential adopters for a ten year old blind female Chihuahua named Ingrid. “Ingrid is a very sweet petite dog”, said PHS/SPCA’s Communications Manager Buffy Martin Tarbox. “Since she’s blind she will need a home and family that will be able to provide for her special needs.” Ingrid was brought into PHS/SPCA as a stray on January 6 wearing a sweater with the words “Free Hugs” on it. She did not have any identification tags nor was she microchipped. No one came forward to claim Ingrid so she was placed for adoption at PHS/SPCA’s Tom and Annette Lantos Center for Compassion in Burlingame. “Despite being blind, Ingrid is playful and loves to cuddle,” according to Tarbox. “She’s just like every other dog who wants love, attention and a safe place to call home.” Ingrid’s adoption fees are waived through the month of February as part of PHS/SPCA’s Senior Sweetheart adoption promotion. She is spayed, microchipped and vaccinated. Ingrid was treated through PHS/SPCA’s donor funded Hope Program, which provides animals like Ingrid a second chance by treating medical and behavior issues. On average the Hope Program saves more than 150 animals a month. People interested in meeting Ingrid can visit the PHS/SPCA shelter at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame or call at 650-340-7022. -

1-Animals on Their Own Terms
Animals on Their Own Terms: Where Advocacy Can Go From Here by Lee Hall1 It’s an especially important time to be an animal advocate. The word’s out that our little planet will be home to more than nine billion human beings by 2050. The resources we allocate to the animals we domesticate are drawing intense scrutiny. Many people in the industrialized world accept that we must “cut back” on consumption; but serious change is called for. Animal-rights voices must be heard in this urgent discussion, because without them -- that is, without transcending the individual and collective habits connected with dominion over the planet’s life -- humans will be locked into a cycle of pollution and pillage of the land and seas. Taking animal rights seriously can free us from the cycle. Had we respected the lives and futures of pink dolphins, marmosets, jaguars and tamarins, could we have ravaged the forests to make way for an industry that creates hamburgers? Surely we could never have devoted the great plains of North America to single-crop feed growing, interspersed with cattle feedlots, had we taken seriously the interests of river otters, whooping cranes, burrowing owls, long-billed curlews, wolves, black-footed ferrets, coyotes and kit foxes. Respecting free-living animals would keep natural areas intact, force humanity to confront its dependence on animal agribusiness, and address the causes of our climate crisis. What has animal-rights theory proposed so far? We are not the only ones born with interests, and so, advocates have urged, we are not the only ones whose interests should be respected. -

Animal Control in Anchorage, Alaska: Cats and Dogs Deserve Fair and Equal Treatment,” a Report Prepared by a Member of Our Commission
MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE Planning Department Phone: 907-343-7921 Long-Range Planning Division Fax: 907-343-7927 Mayor Ethan Berkowitz WATERSHED & NATURAL RESOURCES ADVISORY COMMISSION December 20, 2019 Animal Control Advisory Board Municipality of Anchorage P.O. Box 196650 Anchorage, AK 99519-6650 Dear Board Members: Cats are now the most numerous household pets in the Municipality of Anchorage, a reflection of national trends. However, for several reasons, cats and cat owners are not held to the same standards as dogs or dog owners. Other pets, such as rabbits and ferrets, are also treated somewhat differently, with little or no justification. We hope to engage your board in a collaborative effort to rectify this imbalance. In our advisory capacities, we have overlapping responsibilities with regard to pets and their impacts on people and the natural environment. Anchorage’s Animal Control Advisory Board is a key player in municipal and state efforts to care for and control domestic pets, particularly those concerning the health, welfare, and safety of animals and people in our community. Some of the principal concerns of the board include (1) strategic planning, enforcement, public education, prioritizing capital needs, and increasing the number of pets adopted, claimed, rescued and housed; (2) reviewing and making recommendations on municipal ordinances related to animals; and (3) promoting safe and healthy use of public spaces by pets and pet owners. Anchorage’s Watershed & Natural Resources Advisory Commission serves as a technical liaison between municipal departments, the community, and state and federal agencies that manage water quality, watersheds and natural resources. The principal concerns of our commission include (1) sustaining the economic and community benefits of healthy creeks, watersheds and natural habitats; (2) restoring and improving fish and wildlife habitat; and (3) increasing community stewardship of aquatic and other natural resources within the Municipality.
