China's growing animal activism
Volunteer opportunity in Beijing China to administer China Small Animals Protection Agency. This animal organization, the first of its kind in China, is run by Professor Lu Di who is in her 80's and still working some 10 to 15 hours daily to take care of those animals. The group just took in 520 dogs in an amazing rescue mission where Chinese police were persuaded to help retrieve stolen pets from the restaurant trade.

Chinese citizens are stopping the trucks full of cats and dogs
Trucks full of dogs and cats destined for restaurant cooking pots and other unfortunate destinations are a common sight in China. AND it has been so for as long as anyone can remember. However, thanks to so many compassionate Chinese citizens that are coming together and making sacrifices to help save and protect the most vulnerable member of their society, the animals, changes for the better are happening in China. Groups mushrooming everywhere are coming together fast enough to bring our hopes up that one day all this will belong in a museum of horrors. The site www.people4chineseanimals.org names just a few of such groups and the incredible number of animals they've rescued in a short period of time.
The latest of such rescues is on this link - just one of the few these last 3 years. http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/aftter-15-hour-standoff-activists-rescue-580-dogs-_-a-sign-of-chinas-growing-animal-activism/2011/04/19/AFzPtP5D_story.html
