Whilst we appreciate that many of our supporters find "graphic" pictures quite disturbing we feel that such picture are necessary to show how awful are some of the cases which we have deal with. Afterall, the world TV news programmes show how humans and animals are maimed and killed by human conflicts , wars , and fires with warnings that viewers may find them disturbing. We regret that we will still need to post graphic pictures but will advise you when we post them.
Thanks again for your continued support.
