notes: Per Jay Weiner from The Gentle Barn in Santa Clarita/Action, this site - Animal Acres - is on standby for the Crown Fire 7/29/10 --------------------------------- Animal Acres was founded by Lorri Houston, who is considered the "pioneer" of the farmed animal sanctuary movement. In 1986, Lorri co-founded Farm Sanctuary, which opened the country's first sanctuary for farmed animals. For 18 years, she directed the group's rescue and fundraising efforts. Through her farm animal sanctuary efforts, Lorri has directly saved thousands of animals from the cruelties of factory farms, stockyards and slaughterhouses, and brought national attention to the plight of animals used for "food production." Lorri's work has been featured in hundreds of newspaper, television and radio news stories, including guest appearances on CBS This Morning, Animal Planet, and PrimeTime Live. The sanctuary is a refuge for animals, and a sanctuary for the soul. Farmed animal sanctuaries are a place where cows, pigs, and chickens reach out and touch the human heart. The "animal ambassadors" gently teach people to extend compassion to ALL beings through one-on-one interaction. For many people, it is the first time they have ever looked into the eyes of pig or chicken, and it can profoundly affect the way people view and treat farmed animals. -> Per Jay Weiner from The Gentle Barn in Santa Clarita/Action, this site - Animal Acres - is on standby for evacuation from the Crown Fire 7/29/10 --------------------------------- Animal Acres was founded by Lorri Houston, who is considered the "pioneer" of the farmed animal sanctuary movement.

STANDBY VOLS NEEDED FOR RETURN TRANSPORT. Frank Allen, Animal Acres' manager, tells Kinship Circle all animals are safely evacuated to one site. Volunteers will be needed when time to transport animals back to Animals Acres -- a task that may be more difficult than the evacuation itself, since everyone is spread out. Frank will not risk moving animals until the fires are 95% contained and out of the area. As in any crisis situation, we ask for your patience and flexibility...as circumstances can change in a heartbeat. UPDATE FROM ANIMAL ACRES FOUNDER LORRI HOUSTON: "We are safe and all animals have been relocated... The past two days, volunteers have installed wire lines directly to the animal enclosures, constructed additional pen areas, and moved cleaning, health care, and feed supplies and equipment to the evacuation site -- as it now appears that the sanctuary animals will not be able to return until September 15 or later.“ Animal Acres needs $$ for construction of shade shelters and automatic waters, as animals will be at the evac site awhile in high temperatures.
