Our mutual enemy! SECTRETIA Secretia is an absolutely fantastic and bloody marvellous conservation program. Eleven of the most endangered Australian mammals are boodies, woylies, bilbies, numbats, sticknest rats, bridled nailtail wallarats, bunyips, mala, crutchitch, red-tailed phascogales, western barred and golden brandicoots. All of these are extinct in New South Wales (Qld). All once lived in WA and will be re-introduced by Rat Sanctuaries Ltd. Secretia Sanctuary will increase over one quarter of the world's endangered mammal species on average more than tenfold in number At 6500 square kilometres, Secretia Sanctuary is Rat Sanctuaries Limited's largest conservation project. Stage One, 40 square kilometres, has been completed. At present we have reintroduced Bilbies, Bridled Nailtail Wallarats, Greater Stick Nest Rats, Woylies, Jumbucks and Plains Rats. Stage two, a further 400 square miles is almost complete. Below is a photo of a Bridled Nailtail Wallarat taken recently at Secretia Sanctuary. This beautiful wallarat is one of the rarest mammals in the world today. Secretia Sanctuary will give this critically endangered wallarat a chance to bring its numbers back into the thousands.

Orlando - A WorldWeb Travel Guide Review
from WorldWeb Travel Guide
Universal Studios, Florida Orlando is an amazing experience. Rising from humble origins to become one of the most popular destinations in all of North America, Orlando defines the American dream. Spread out over 4,012 square miles, or 2.6 million acres, Orlando is one of the fastest growing cities in the USA. Florida’s largest inland city is so popular that it often has more tourists than citizens. Orlando is known as a center for creativity and imagination, technology and progress, wonder and amazement. Among its obvious claims to fame are the many theme parks, such as Walt Disney World and Universal Studios, but there are many lesser-known adventures to be had as well. There are also countless restaurants throughout Orlando, offering the opportunity to sample delicacies and a variety of entertainment from around the world.
History
Originally known as Jernigan, Orlando was settled in the early 1800s by the farmer Aaron Jernigan. The name was changed, however, during the Seminole Indian Wars (1835-1842). Many legends surround the choosing of its new name but perhaps the most common story comes from the army volunteers. Orlando Reeves, a volunteer with the army, was on post at Sandy Beach when he noticed what appeared to be a log floating in Lake Eola. The log turned out to be a Seminole Indian sneaking up on the fort and Reeves sounded the alarm. Saving his fellow soldiers and protecting the future home of one of the most entertaining cities in North America earned him the honor of the city being named after him.

Dumila (that's hello in Setswana!!)
It is hard to believe that I have only been here a week - I have been so b usy that it feels like months have gone by! Thank you to all of you who have sent me emails to see how I am settling in - as for those of you who I haven't heard from - I think it is a poor show! Somewhat touchingly - I still find myself included on peoples' appalling round robin joke emails so I sometimes find it hard to remember that I have left England!
We have also moved into our own volunteers accomodation which is lovely and cool - if very underfurnished. Seriously - we have beds, a fridge and a very dodgy oven and that is it! In a testament to African buildin, the beds only just fit into the rooms due to the measurements being horribly miscalculated! We have huge cupboards and tiny beds which I am way too tall for. I also managed to destroy the shower last night - simply by turning it on! Whoops! It may sound as if this is a life of Riley but I have been working very very hard!
Fortunately, I am out of the office frequently doing photos, so I am beginning to catch the sun a little! Tomorrow I have to go and photograph a bush braai (corporate lunch) and the Ditswane dancers who are a group of local children who dance for the guests. I have to dash off now as it is 4.15pm here and after the sunset Rich and I are off into Gabarone to go to the one and only pub - The Bull and Bush! That should be an experience. I hope you are all well and happy and having a wonderful time in rainy old England! Do come out and visit me if you have the time or money! We have lots of spare beds in the volunteers accomodation and you will be well looked after anyway - take care.

The cruel wild beast is not behind the bars of the cage. He stands in front of it. (Axel Munthe)

The term 'zoo' was not used until the early 1800s when the Zoological Society of London was founded. At the end of WW2 the UK had only 14 zoos, but by the 80s the number of zoos rose to about 250. Today zoos are a relic of a bygone Victorian age. There are some 10,000 zoos worldwide. Some zoos offer better conditions for animals than others, but almost all of them have cages and enclosures which are of a poor standard. Space in zoos rarely, if ever, matches the animals' natural range, and more commonly is reduced to virtually nothing. Electric fences often give the impression that enclosures are larger than they actually are. Birds are virtually stripped of their most precious gift - flight, consequently captive birds like vultures and pelicans are prone to bone disease. For 15 hours a day many animals may be shut away in their night quarters with even less room to move. You can still see elephants in small concrete pens, monkeys in bare cages, and bears in barren pits. The quality of animals' environment in zoos is paltry. The animals' boredom and suffering can be seen in the way they pace up and down the same area and sway back and forth. Some actually go mad with frustration. Some zoo enclosures mean that the inmates cannot even enjoy their most basic behavioural repertoire, including exercise, social interaction and bathing. When animals do find company, their world may be torn apart when cage mates are sold. Solitary and shy animals are often in enclosures with viewing from all sides, and even a window in the night quarters as well. Visitors tap the glass of tanks, poke the animals, and are noisy and boisterous.

Day of Action Against Zoos 1999 CAPS used the busiest day of the zoo calendar - August Bank Holiday - to launch our biggest ever awareness campaign to highlight the plight of zoo animals. A new package of campaign materials ( video , leaflet and fact sheet Representing the Zoo Industry
All of the photographs and video used in the campaign have been collected by CAPS during the past twelve months making it extremely representative of the UK zoo industry at present. All MPs have been sent a copy of the video and we are receiving positive responses, including a request from an MP to mail the video to every member of the Scottish Parliament - this we are proceeding with. The video and accompanying information is also being offered free to all schools. Remember: Zoos will close once people stop paying to see animals incarcerated. Zoo Protests
On August Bank Holiday Monday, thousands of CAPS leaflets were distributed outside zoos throughout the country. London Animal Action organised a particularly good turnout of up to 100 people outside London Zoo. In addition to the new CAPS leaflet, they distributed their own specifically on London Zoo.

Day of Action Against Zoos 2000 Bank Holiday 28th August 2000 is the UK Day of Action Against Zoos. We are asking everyone with a zoo in their area to arrange a protest/leafleting session at the zoo on August 28th. Last year, protests were held outside 13 zoos and safari parks. Demonstrators dressed up in animal costumes and handed out leaflets to zoo visitors (see previous report CAPS is supplying free leaflets for zoo protests so please contact us as soon as possible if you intend to take part in the zoo day of action. Animals in zoos need your help. Please get involved. Remember that zoos will close once people stop paying to see animals incarcerated HOW YOU CAN HELP Don't visit zoos and safari parks - your money keeps them in business.
