5 thoughts on “Easing Animal’s Fourth of July Stress

  1. Fireworks have outlived their usefulness, if they ever had one. Between wildfires, morons blowing their fingers off, terrorizing wild animals, and scaring dogs into running away from home and into the pound where they then are killed because of the sheer numbers, its time to tell our elected officials to ban fireworks or look for a new job the next election cycle.

  2. My state just legalized fireworks last year. Idiots! I really feel for all the wild ones who are still young and are experiencing it for the first time. Fire crackers sound just like shot guns going off.

    • Really this is just another way for ” parents” to ” entertain”, (e.g zoos, circuses, rodeos, aquariums,etc ) their offspring. Think of how few animals would be terrorized, exploited and murdered if there were far less human kids born( one or no child families is the ideal according to environmentalists who arent sellouts) and the ones who were forceably brought into this world, had parents who actually used their brains instead of their groins to make decisions.

    • Several local communities in Arizona, have banned fireworks of any sort this year due to the high threat of wildfires, and some minor concern over the number of dogs that are terrified by the noise, runawsy from home and then are usually rounded up by the local pound and killed ( at taxpayer expense) because their lazy ” owners” would just rather get another puppy from a backyard breeder than get off their butts and recover their lost family dog. However, more and more wildlife rescuers, actual animal advocates, veterans with ptsd and firefighters are actually working together to influence and get elected officials to ban fireworks. Even though most politicians are cowardly and bow to business interests, if they feel threatened enough by a voting bloc of people who want fireworks banned, maybe we can get this outdated dangerous display of noise and machismo eliminated.
