This is a petition to try and raise support to stop the random poisoning of dogs (and other animals) in and around Dahab.
Many tourists (and locals) have witnessed the horrific sight of dead and dying animals on the streets of Dahab. For many visitors this will have destroyed the enjoyment of visiting Dahab and will have tarnished forever their feelings towards Egypt and its people. Many of these tourists will never return for this reason.
Poison is the most inhumane and indiscriminate way to deal with feral animals.
Poison also represents a real danger to the many children who live and play around the areas where it is placed.
Poison doesn’t just kill feral animals, it kills peoples much loved pets, indigenous wild animals and birds as well.
We ask the Mayor of Dahab to help us end the poisoning and find a long term solution that addresses the concerns of the local people, the ex-pat community and tourists and is a benifit for all of us who love Dahab.
e 2-3 paragraphs to convince people of the importance of your issue! Facts, figures, and bulleted lists are extremely helpful, but don't be afraid to be passionate and be yourself.
