Introduction

Taking the Leap in 2013

Animal Nepal in 2013 celebrated its 10-year anniversary. Having started as a volunteer organization, without an office and using friends’ homes to rehabilitate injured dogs, we are thankful for where we are today.

We are especially grateful for the support of countless friends, both within and outside the country.

In the past decade we designed two outreach programmes with sanctuaries (for dogs and donkeys), ran various national campaigns and helped thousands of suffering animals.

Among the most visible successes of 2013 are:

Conducted a total of 4455 treatments Build a new eco-friendly Donkey Sanctuary Spayed 636 female dogs; vaccinated and treated 1777 dogs Wormed and vaccinated 1038 equines in 15 brick factories Launched five new successful campaigns Rescued 30 puppies from being smuggled to India

In 2013 we took the leap of building a new ecofriendly donkey sanctuary featuring a farm-like resort and education center. Although not yet fully operational we envision a place where animals are treated with kindness and compassion and where visitors can learn about the abuse that takes place against equines in Nepal.

Together we Burns Survivors Nepal we moved our office to a spacious house with large garden. Here we hope to organize monthly Monkey Melas, focusing on education, networking and fundraising.

In 2013 we continued the Catch, Neuter, Vaccinate and Release (CNVR) camps in villages in our working area. Despite a hitch in the funding, the Mobile Response Team continued to work hard. The team responds to phone calls from concerned community members and designs an effective response to individual cases. A total of 135 dogs were treated on the street.

Thanks to the intense education programmes for donkey owners and handlers, the general health conditions of equines in brick factories in Lalitpur improved. In Nepalgunj

5

we further empowered the Equine User Groups by providing them business skills training and seed money for micro credit funds.

One example of a dog that benefited from our treatment is Mummy. This strong willed female lives in Patan’s Restaurant Lane where she started to attack by passers after giving birth to four puppies. When we realized she suffered from cancer, we took Mummy to our office, where she took care of the puppies till all were adopted. After a month of chemotherapy Mummy was reunited her buddies in Restaurant Lane.

Two equines whom we were happy to meet are Kusha and Lava. These midget donkeys were considered ‘very strong’ by their owner. Despite their small size they carried up to 40 kg of bricks during each trip. When they suffered from bad saddle wounds their owner handed them over to Animal Nepal. They now are some of our handsomest donkeys at the Godavari shelter.

In 2013 we continued our campaigns against dog and equine abuse, and promoted improved conditions at the zoo, in the livestock industry and during cultural events. We spoke out against animal cruelty on many occasions. We aim to be a true Voice for the Voiceless.

None of these achievements would have been possible without our staff. Thanks all of you for your hard work! Last but not least we want to thank our loyal international donors, Animal Aid Abroad

(Australia), Brigitte Bardot Foundation (France), Donkey Sanctuary (UK and India), Help Animals India (USA), Humane Society International, Mayhew Animal Home (UK), Serve & Share (Holland) and 30 Million d’Amis (France).

Thank you, everyone, for your ongoing trust, advice and support!

2013 in Words and Images

January 2013 January 7th – Mobile health camps for Lalitpur’s brick factories

In the first week of 2013 Animal Nepal started a series of mobile health camps in Lalitpur’s brick factories. Supervised by Dr Sudeep Koirala, paravets Tara Budhatoki, Radhika Poudel, Gopal BK, Hari Shrestha and Shankar Sapkota travel from factory to factory, educating equine owners and providing vaccinations, worming medicine and treatment to the animals. Over 1000 equines work in brick factories in Kathmandu Valley, hauling bricks under tough conditions. This season Animal Nepal will be focusing on creating a business model that works, implementing education and evidence based outreach, livelihood development and advocacy at national and international level.

March 2013

March 1st – Animal Nepal’s response to brutal dog killing by Nepal Police

Today, Animal Nepal handed over letters to the Inspector of Police, the Chief District Officer and the Kathmandu Municipality, requesting the authorities to take immediate action. According to Animal Nepal, “the images of ‘man’s best friend’ dying such an agonizing death are heart rendering and deeply traumatizing for children and other members of the public.” Despite the fact that humane solutions like Animal Birth Control/Anti Rabies have been introduced in Nepal a decade ago, authorities continue to kill dogs inhumanely using strychnine poison, guns or sticks. The incident shows that Nepal badly needs an Animal Welfare Act, to provide protection for canines and other animals.

March 21st – Dog Campaign books success Animal Nepal today thanked the 4000 campaigners who signed petitions against the brutal dog killing by the police army on Gopetion.com or Care2.com.

7

The campaign has booked an important success when the Nepal Police admitted its mistake and send out a circular to its posts urging its officers to use humane methods to control stray dogs. With the support of our Volunteer Communication Director Shristi Shrestha and members of Animal Welfare Network Nepal, the petitions with 4000 signatures were handed over to the Nepal Police earlier this week. The Hanumandhoka Range Office has send out a circular to all police posts jurisdiction saying humane measures need to be used and help from animal welfare organisations should be sought whenever needed. The office also send a letter to AWNN confirming that it will implement humane methods. The police requested help in educating its officers in animal welfare issues. Already one police post asked Animal Nepal to help with the case of one aggressive dog. This shows that campaigns such as these can truly make a difference! It is extremely sad and upsetting that the dog in the video was abused so badly. We can only hope that it was the last dog to be killed in such a cruel manner in Nepal, and that this case will prove to be a turning point in the way authorities deal with dog issues.

March 1st -3rd - Spay Day celebrated with Kirtipur spaying camp

Celebrating World Spay Day, held on the last Tuesday of February, Animal Nepal, with the

support of grade 10 of Lincoln School, organised a Catch Neuter Vaccinate and Release Camp in Thanglaphat, Kirtipur, from March 1-3. A total of 61 female dogs were spayed, and four dogs suffering from cancer rescued. No less than six dogs were found suffering from pyometra, a potentially fatal condition in which the uterus becomes infected. All dogs could be saved. A volunteer with the Community Service Centre, Sudarshan Basnyat, kindly offered his house as a venue for the surgery. Lincoln School’s grade 10 students thought of creative ways to raise money to help sponsor the operation camp. The students raised 21,000 rupees through two dinner fundraisers, while 2nd Grade made and sold recycled notebooks for an additional 6,500 rupees. In total, this combined contribution paid for a quarter of the total cost incurred by the CNVR camp. In addition to the monetary contribution, 10th

Grade students participated in an educational campaign to raise awareness within the community of the need for street dog neutering, and to promote the operation camp, which was provided as a free service for the community.

March 7th- Animal Nepal launches Pet Therapy Programme

8

In March 2013, Animal Nepal officially launched its pet therapy programme. Canadian pet therapist Shona Nichols and volunteer Jiggy Gaton have been assisting us in designing a programme that is suitable for Nepal. The real star of the show however is Krypto, a gentle German Shepherd who helps scared children to overcome their fear of dogs and teaches them how to behave with a canine. In Nepal, children tend to be very scared of dogs, something which is often encouraged by parents who worry about rabies and dog bites. Few know how to treat a dog, and the increasingly large population of pet dogs tends to lack the right management and TLC. One way Animal Nepal (AN) is working to fix this problem is with direct pet education at the primary school level. A programme has been developed by AN volunteers that brings a healthy pet dog into the classroom, and along with the trainer (or pet owner) delivers a short 45-minute interactive presentation. Shona Nichols and Jiggy Gaton took care of the presentation at Lincoln School, and taught the students how to successfully interact with a dog. The children were excited and quickly learned to trust Krypto.

March 14th - Adopted dog turns mountaineer One of the adopted dogs from our shelter has made us proud by becoming a mountaineer! Angelique van Leeuwen adopted Haku and decided to take him trekking. Haku, a true

Nepalese mixed breed mutt, scaled the Thorung La (5416 mtr) without any problem.

April 12th : Animal Nepal shocked by conditions in New Bhairab brick factory

Animal Nepal’s working equine outreach team today was shocked to find a grave case of animal abuse in New Bhairab brick factory in Lubhu, Lalitpur. A mule, which was literally worked to death, died this morning from deep trauma saddle wound on its back. The wounds were so severe that the mule’s spine and vertebrae were exposed. Donkey Sanctuary India’s managing vet Ramesh Kumar said he had never come across such a serious case of equine abuse. “I am deeply saddened to see the conditions of equines in Kathmandu’s brick factories, and vow to do

9

whatever possible to improve their lives,” said Dr Kumar. Already 15 equines died in a similar manner in the factory since December. Over 30% of the surviving 47 equines suffer from malnutrition, saddle wounds, blindness or other injuries. Animal Nepal’s team of paravets is presently being trained in wound management, PRA methods, hoof cutting and tooth rasping. Animal Nepal, apart from providing training to equine owners and child handlers, conduct regular mobile clinics in brick factories. The organisation has launched a campaign to improve the conditions of ‘brick donkeys’. Animal Nepal is a founder of Brick Clean Network Nepal, which promotes a responsible brick industry. A write up on ‘Blood Bricks’ , produced with the blood of countless working equines, child workers and bonded labourers, by Animal Nepal’s volunteer directors Pramada Shah and Lucia de Vries, can be found here.

May 2013 May 16th - Donkey abuse petition handed over to Federation of Brick Industries

“Please stop the abuse against equines working in brick factories. They do not deserve a life like this. Hire humans to work not equines, don’t just look at money. Have a heart and stop all this abuse.” – Sita Pun

“If you have animals working for you, it is your job to make sure they are in good health at least. I hope government will activate some projects to monitor health and hygiene.” – Sidhanta Shrestha “Giving torture to such innocent animal is the example of cruelty…need to stop right now…” –Hema Gurung These were some of the comments among the 125,000 signatures collected in just two weeks to stop equine abuse in Nepal’s brick factories. The petition was posted by Animal Nepal on Care2.com to raise awareness about the grave abuse by some owners. The petition was handed over to Mr Mahendra Bahadur Chitrakar, President of the Federation of Nepal Brick Industries, on May 12, 2013. The Federation of Brick Industries is committed to promoting a responsible industry, and has taken a strong stance against child labour. Animal abuse is a new theme for the industry, explained Mr Chitrakar, who has agreed to discuss the issue with the members. Animal Nepal has developed a Memorandum of Understanding for the entrepreneurs involved, in which they commit to reject sick, pregnant or disabled equines and support improved management in terms of shelter, feeding, no beating, no overloading, first aid kit, 8-hour working hours, and providing one holiday per week. The petition is directed to the Ministers of Agriculture, Finance and Industries, who will receive the petition next week.

May 16th - Quarantine Chief visits brick factory ‘This is awful.” That was the reaction of Dr. Bodh Prasad Parajuli, Chief of Central Animal Quarantine Office, when he saw the conditions of working equines in brick factories on April 29, 2013. The government chief visited

10

Santaneshwor Brick Factory, among Lalitpur’s worst fourteen brick factories employing equines.

Dr Parajuli warned the equine owners that equine abuse cannot be accepted by his department. He also realised the owners do not possess the required health cards. Animal Nepal has urged government authorities such as Department of Livestock Services, Animal Health and Quarantine to address the issue of equine abuse in brick factories.

Dr Parajuli agreed to promote detailed monitoring in quarantine check posts and is to activate the Veterinary Council of Nepal and Nepal Veterinary Association to stop the distribution of health certificates for unhealthy equines. It is agreed that a joint meeting with the various government agencies will be held to address the problems in an effective and lasting manner. Animal Nepal requested Dr Parajuli to strictly follow existing regulations, especially when equines are imported from India, and to improve conditions during the transportation of equines from Kathmandu to Nepalgunj and vice versa.

May 16th: Music event raises Rs 65.000

The music event ‘For the love of dogs’ raised no less than Rs 65.000. The concert, organised by Shristi Shrestha and friends, featured Joint Family International, Subhani Moktan, Prajwal Mukhiya and Dev Lama, Axata Singh and The Say Project. It was quite a crowd that joined the event. Shristi introduced the evening with a poem and an introduction to Animal Nepal and Mankind for Animals. During the break a documentary featuring animal rights campaigners Pramada Shah, Santosh Khatiwada, Manoj Gautam and Lucia de Vries was shown. The concert was held at the Attic Bar, and supported by the Jazz Conservatory and Gorkha Brewery. 30% of the proceeds were handed over to Mankind for Animals. Thank you everyone involved!

May 20th: ‘Save the dogs of Pharping’ spays and vaccinates 76 dogs

76 dogs spayed and vaccinated. Ten sick or injured dogs treated. That was the outcome of the ‘Save the Dogs of Pharping’ programme, a Catch, Neuter, Vaccinate and Release (CNVR) programme focusing on Pharping, Dakchinkali and nearby villages. Community members, including Shedra members, donated Rs 71,000 to support the camp. For the first time Animal Nepal organised a CNVR camp at its shelter in Chobar. Normally such camps are held within the community. The advantage of doing the surgery at the Chobar Animal Sanctuary was that more dogs could be

11

spayed and treated in a short time, due to the presence of stronger support team.

Four dogs from Afaldol were found to have eye problems due to cancer or cataract and were kept for treatment. Paravets Hari Krishna, Shankar, Tara and Radika helped the Chobar staff members Ishwori, Hari, Mohan, Rabin, Sangita. The surgeries were conducted by Surendra, Sushma, Sudeep and a number of volunteer vets. Animal Nepal thanks the team and Norbu Kalden and Lisa for coordinating the fundraising.

May 25th: Children raise funds to help stray dogs

Animal Nepal is delighted to get support from Help Save Street Dogs, an initiative by 9 year old Michelle and her friends. The children have been feeding stray dogs for many years. Last year they started selling handicrafts for sick and injured strays. The income, close to Rs 8000, was handed over to Animal Nepal.

Michelle was inspired by her love for her dog, Luna. Her friends Hennie, Maren, Medha, Kioni, Hridyendra, Christoph, Ayushma, Carmen, Claire, Ellie and Ivan joined efforts to increase sells and raise funds. They opened memberships to HSSD for which members had to pay a monthly fee. Some class kids sold mini books with stories they wrote and illustrated; notepads which they cut, decorated and stapled together and sold.

Well done, HSSD members, and a big THANK YOU for supporting the suffering dogs at our shelter!

June 2013

June 27th : Petition against donkey abuse handed over to Ministry of Agriculture

Something must be done about the unspeakable suffering inflicted on equines working in brick factories. This is why Animal Nepal handed over a petition signed by 130.000 people to the Ministry of Agriculture on 27 June. Secretary Jaya Mukunda Khanal was positive but also pointed out that in the absence of an animal welfare act the Ministry is facing limitations.

During the interaction Animal Nepal’s representatives Pramada Shah and UttamKafle discussed the following suggestions with Mr Khanal:

12

• Organise joint meeting with all agencies to stop equines abuse and related problems • Include working equines under DLSO mandate. • Stop the smuggling of equines across Indian border • Ensure that no agency issues health cards unless equine is healthy • Improve transport conditions for equines • Develop rules for working animals under Livestock Act • Write letter to Brick Factory Federation to point out rules regarding health cards and transportation • Passing of Animal Welfare Act The Secretary agreed that the Livestock Act can be reformed to include working equines and will forward this message to the related authorities. Mr Khanal also agreed to include equine issues in the next year’s budget and to do whatever mandate the Ministry has under the present law.

September 2013

September 10th : Animal Nepal starts construction of eco-friendly donkey sanctuary

With the digging of foundations, Animal Nepal started the long awaited construction of its new donkey sanctuary in Badikhel. Coordinated by overseer Norbu Kalden and engineering student Stefan Klaseboer, the building uses local and recycled materials. The stables will be build using the earthbag and adobe technique.

The new donkey sanctuary is a place where animals are treated with kindness and compassion and where visitors can learn about the abuse that takes place against equines in Nepal. Apart from stables catering for 25 rescued working equines, the project includes an education centre for children and a tented camp. Individuals and companies who are interested in being involved in the project can do so by getting their hands dirty and helping us build the stables using earthbags and mud. The project offers CSR opportunities for teams that want to be part of this unique construction project, benefiting both the local community and countless working equines. Animal Nepal has launched a sponsoring programme called Donkey Wall of Fame to build sufficient funds to complete and run the project.

September 11th : Media group for animal welfare formed

Animal Nepal formed a group of media

representatives who are ready to promote

animal welfare. Around 35 journalists joined us

for a one day workshop on animal welfare and

the role of the media.

The media representatives cover different

media, including TV, radio and print. The

journalists are organised in a googlegroup and

Facebook page and have already started to

13

broadcast the issue of equine abuse, stray dog

issues, and current campaigns conducted by

various welfare organisations.

September 11th : Animal Nepal launches Donkey Wall of Fame

Ever thought of becoming a Very Important Donkey (VID) or even a Very Very Important Donkey (VVID)? This is your chance, as Animal Nepal has launched a Donkey Wall of Fame, to raise money for the construction of an eco friendly donkey shelter. Animal Nepal opened its Donkey Sanctuary in 2009, to act as a home for rescued disabled and sick working equines, providing them retirement from a life of abuse in one of Nepal’s brick factories. Since then Animal Nepal has rescued and rehabilitated over 70 equines. The sanctuary will be a place where animals are treated with kindness and compassion and where visitors can learn about the equine abuse that occurs in Nepal. We have teamed up with a socially responsible company called The Sanctuary, which is building a tented camp next to the new donkey shelter. Individual sponsors can either acquire a VVID (Very Very Important Donkey) status on the Donkey Wall of Fame at € 500, or a VID (Very Important Donkey) status @ € 250 euro. They can also buy a ‘brick’ @ 25 euro. OrRs 2500. Schools are invited to sponsor one of the six pillars of the building at € 500. The names of the schools will be displayed on the pillars.

September 23rd : Survey shows sharp decrease number of stray dogs in Animal Nepal’s working area

A WSPA supported survey shows a sharp decrease in the number of stray dogs in Animal Nepal’s working area. The population decreased by 64% in 6 years. Animal Nepal has been conducting a humane dog management programme in Lalitpur since 2008.The number of dogs in Patan (Block D) went down from 7527 in 2006 to 4560 in 2010, and further decreased to 2738 in 2012. The survey further showed that the population in Kathmandu district is no longer increasing and has become stable. The 2012 dog survey was conducted by volunteers from Animal Nepal, Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre and Roots and Shoots Nepal. Animal Nepal launched its humane dog population programme in December 2008, and has conducted various Animal Birth Control/Anti Rabies and CNVR (Catch Neuter Vaccinate Release) camps in Lalitpur district since then. Over 1900 female dogs have been spayed, treated and vaccinated. Animal Nepal is grateful to find that its approach has proved successful and that the suffering of Lalitpur’s stray dogs has been greatly reduced.

September 24th: Animal Nepal launches campaign to retire Pawankali

Animal Nepal has launched a campaign to retire zoo elephant Pawankali. The loyal working elephant is now 65 and her eye sight is decreasing. Mr. Juddha Bahadur Gurung, Member Secretary of Nepal Trust for Nature Conservation (NTNC), promised to retire Pawankali. Representatives from Animal Nepal handed over a letter to NTNC and the zoo earlier this month. While in India, working elephants retire at the age of 58. Nepal yet has to introduce welfare rules for jumbos. This despite the fact that over 200 working elephants are used to conduct safaris and anti-poaching activities. Pawankali arrived in the Central Zoo at the age of 30, where she is used for safaris and put on hire for functions. The loyal jumbo served the zoo for over 35 years. She lives alone and is chained when not working. Apart from a tin roof, she has no shelter. In the letter Animal Nepal writes: “Pawankali deserves to be retired, and to be allowed to live the remains of her days in comfort.” Animal Nepal urges the government to issue welfare

standards and to open a retirement home for aging working animals.

MrGurung said his organisation is looking to retire Pawankali. Animal Nepal appreciates the decision by NTNC but strongly disagrees with replacing Pawankali with a younger elephant. “We urge you to follow the example of India and various other countries, and end the presence of elephants in the Central Zoo,” urges the organisation.

September 28th: World Rabies Day celebrated in style

In order to celebrate World Rabies Day, Animal

Nepal each year organises a mass awareness

and vaccination camp in Patan, Lalitpur. In total

52 dogs were vaccinated. Out of them 26 were

female and 9 were spayed.

This year our team conducted free vaccinations

and information camp at Patan Durbar Square.

The program has started at 8am till 11:30am.

The AN team also distributed awareness

materials related to rabies. People from the

local community helped us to find and catch

dogs for vaccination. After the information

camp we went to a nearby area to find dogs

and vaccinated them. Mainly we focused on

streets dogs though some privately owned dogs

were vaccinated too.

October 4th : World Animal Day celebrated with Walk for Animals

Today World Animal Day was celebrated in style with a Walk for Animals. Organised by Animal Welfare Network Nepal (AWNN), the walkathon attracted over 200 participants. While raising funds for Animal Nepal’s outreach work, the participants called for a halt to animal cruelty in Nepal. The walk was from Basantapur Durbar Square to Patan Durbar Square, a distance of 6.5 km. Despite the drizzling rain, the participants had fun showing their placards and shouting slogans. AWNN awarded four people as “Local Animal Welfare Heros” as a sign of respect for their commitment to helping animals. Journalist Krishna Mani Baral, from Pokhara based Animal Rights Nepal, received an award. Among those awarded for looking after suffering dogs were family Limbu from Baisepati, Lalitpur, Bishwo Maskey from Boudha and Ram Byanjankar and Indu Manandhar from Kupondole. A flash mob danced to Michael Jackson’s song “They don’t care about us” while a giant panda danced to his own music. In a closing remark, Manoj Gautam, President of AWNN, said: “We are living in a world where every animals has equal rights to live in harmony and peace. To achieve this goal we

should all be responsible to them like we are for our families and friends”. Pramada Shah from Animal Nepal urged all participants to unchain their pet.

November 10th : President tells brick factories to improve conditions of equines

The President of Nepal, the Honourable Ram Baran Yadav, in a letter to the Department of Industries, tells brick factories to treat equines used for carrying bricks humanely. He did so in response to a letter from two lecturers at Coker College, South Carolina, USA. The lecturers, Prof. Jean Grosser and Alireza Azizi of Coker College, wrote to the President in response to Animal Nepal’s campaign against animal abuse taking place at New Bhairab brick factory. A petition, signed by close to 150,000 people, showed the image of a mule dying from deep trauma saddle wounds exposing the equine’s spine and vertebrae. In response to the letter the President instructed the Department of Industries to inform all brick factories to stop animal abuse taking place in the kilns.

16

The letter by the Department to the Cottage and Small Industries Office and Federation of Brick Industries says: “We hereby inform all brick factories not to show inhumane behaviour to animals by using sick and injured equines and overloading them.” Animal Nepal, which has lobbied for better conditions for ‘brick donkeys’ since 2008, feels greatly encouraged by the President’s statement.

December 2013

December 23rd : Animal Nepal and Jane Goodall Institute expose illegal puppy trade to india

Thousands of Nepalese stray puppies have been sold as ‘Himalayan breeds’ in India in the past decade. This was found when Jane Goodall Institute and Animal Nepal exposed the illegal trafficking of Nepalese dogs to India by rescuing 30 puppies. The puppies were destined for Sonepur Mela, Asia’s largest animal fair, held annually in Bihar. Animal Nepal calls for stricter law enforcement and request Nepalese families to come to the rescue by adopting one the puppies.

Last week 30 puppies were rescued from Kalanki bus station before being smuggled on top of a night bus to India. It is estimated that in the past decade thousands of mixed breed dogs have been sold as pure breeds across the border. Traders collect stray puppies from the streets of Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur districts and promote them as special Himalayan breeds in India. Exporting any live animal without official documents is illegal under Nepalese law. The puppies are cramped in mesh wire cages and transported on top of public buses from Kathmandu to Sonepur in Bihar via Malangala in Siraha. According to Managing Veterinarian Dr Surendra Basyal, the condition of the puppies raises many concerns. “Most puppies are not properly weaned. Some are as young as three weeks. They can hardly survive without their mother. I cannot imagine that any of them would have survived the long journey to Sonepur.”
