The good news is you'll have an opportunity to fight the forces of evil. The bad news is you're about to watch one of the scariest films ever … created by award winning advertising company, Proximity, this frightful flick is a spine-tingling tale of terror and torture. Want to know the scariest thing of all? "Dancing" bears in Pakistan and India are mercilessly mutilated just like this when they are barely just a year old. Watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7uG7dMfet8 and forward it to everyone you know.
Even though it is illegal to capture bears in both India and Pakistan, there are still more than 1,600 sloth bears being forced to dance for money by madaris. Bear cubs who are barely 1 year old squeal in agony as red-hot needles are jabbed through their noses and thick ro pes are forced through the throbbing wounds. When the ropes are tugged, the bears lift their legs and "dance". Most of their teeth are pulled out, and they are forced to perform for up to 12 hours a day. Bears are 't rained' to dance through a regime of pain and starvation. Many cubs die before the training begins because of the stress of capture, the terrible transportation conditions, starvation, dehydration, and rough handling. Although they live up to 30-years in the wild, dancing bears rarely live more than eight years in captivity.
Want to more for dancing bears? Besides, forwarding this video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7uG7dMfet8 ) to everyone you know, you can write to the environmental ministers of Pakistan and India and urge them to enforce laws that prevent bear baiting and prosecute madaris.
