Japan Disaster - Animal Rescue Efforts
I traveled to the disaster areas in Japan seven weeks after the earthquake and tsunami hit. The Japanese government closed a 20 km area around the damaged nuclear power plant, leaving thousands of animals trapped there. As of April 22, 2011, no one was allowed in even to feed and give water to the animals. Animal Rescue organizations from Japan and around the globe have offered assistance in getting out the animals, but the Japanese government has resisted. The animals are still there at their homes...waiting...slowly dying. Now the government is wanting to close off up to a 30 km area...
Please aid us in urging the government before it's too late. Too many have died. These are a few of the amazing organizations working night and day to help our animals friends there: Kinship Circle ( http://www.kinshipcircle.org), Japan Earthquake Animal Rescue and Support ( http://www.jears.org), Last Chance for Animals ( http://www.lcanimal.org). There are also many petitions out there urging the Japanese government to work quickly to get the animals out. Please contact me at lexie@injoyphotography.com if you need any assistance in finding them.
Thank you so much! We will not give up until all the animals are out!
