• Target: Prime Minister Vladimir Putin
• Sponsored by: Citizens of Russian Federation

 

This petition has been created to end unpunished cruelty and propaganda of sadism towards animals in Russia. Our country still hasn't got federal law of animal protection. Any content that includes brutal killings of animals is free to publish on the Internet. People, who spread provocative content, propose to unite and commit such things in their cities.

Lately some videos shot with mobile phone appeared on one of our social network sites. The incident shown on this video took place in the Russian army. Soldiers under the guidance of a warrant officer are killing dogs with unbelievable cruelty, jabbing a knife into dog's ear or cutting a dog's head with a shovel.

Materials on this case have been sent to Military Office of Public Prosecutor but we have no way to bring these people to justice, because the propaganda of cruelty to animals has yet to be banned in Russia.

Please urge the Russian Prime Minister to assert influence on establishing of juristic base for solving this problem and speed up an adoption of Federal law about animal protection.  less
