While media coverage of the war in Ukraine has lessened significantly over the last few months, that does not mean that there are not still people and animals in need of help. It can be easy to feel overwhelmed by how to even begin helping the animals suffering in these types of situations, but we’ve made it easier than ever before to save animals no matter where you are Donate: your lifesaving donation will help us support rescue efforts and go towards supporting the recovery of animals on the frontline and those working to save them. Advocate: by becoming a ROLDA ambassador you can use your voice and platform to fight for animals in horrific situations. Shop: with our shop you can give gifts that keep on giving and make a difference in the lives of animals in need without even thinking about it! Foster: you can become a foster parent and help provide a temporary sanctuary to dogs that need a safe space to recover and wait for their forever homes. This also helps us free up space and resources to rescue other dogs. Remember, you are never too far away to make an impact and no matter how seemingly small your action, it can make a huge difference to the lives of innocent animals https://lnkd.in/d8wh9hEH #ukraine #givehope #savelives #impact #advocate #shop #donate #foster #animals #rescue #help

Just a few things you can do to minimize wild animals nesting on your property.

Rescue Innocent Families! Your donation to In Defense of Animals today can help us prevent the cruel and unnecessary slaughter of geese and other waterfowl. These animals are often killed through painful gassing methods, simply because of their presence in places that humans perceive as primarily theirs and an unwillingness to share space. This horrific process, especially torturous for aquatic birds, can take up to 45 minutes, causing prolonged suffering. Your support enables us to advocate for humane, non-lethal alternatives and protect these innocent animals from such needless brutality. https://lnkd.in/eU6B7z5K
