Focus on equal access to assisted death rather than risks of legalisation for oppressed groups wrongheaded, MPs and campaigners say
CAMPAIGNERS delivered a total of three million signatures to Theresa May today, calling for urgent action to save endangered Asian elephants.
Save The Asian Elephants (STAE) handed in several similar petitions, including its own, which featured 200,000 signatures in support of new laws banning advertisements for unethical holidays that involve elephants being subjected to vicious “training.”
The campaign group said that many Asian elephants are poached from the wild as babies and subjected to cruel and brutal training called “pajan,” which means to “break the spirits.”
