Pijac

Ok, guys this is not a debate, I'm just going to put some info out there. We all know USARK is great, but we also know they don't have the funds to compete with HSUS and PETA. Well, a friend of mine informed me about PIJAC (Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council). They DO have the funds and they don't just support the reptile industry, but the pet industry as a whole. They know that they will ban large reptiles then smaller ones and that they will eventually move to fish, birds and hamsters etc. So while I'm not saying to stop supporting USARK (I'm not) I'm saying we need to support PIJAC as well. Right now PIJAC and USARK are working separately, but we need EVERYONE to work TOGETHER if we are going to win this. Again this is not to start debate or argument, it is to inform. Also, I have noticed fighting going on in some forums and that's not what we need. United we stand, divided we fall.

Re: Pijac

Bump, pijac is a great group that everyone with pets needs to be aware of.

Re: Pijac

I think they are working together and also with NARBC

http://www.narbc.com/images/SpecialThankYou.pdf

I wonder why APPA and PIDA pulled funding from PIJAC? It can't be just because they made a president position? Makes me wonder who is behind APPA and PIDA?

APPA Pulls Funding From PIJAC

I think they are a worthy organization to join myself.

Re: Pijac

That's ridiculous to pull funding! Everyone needs to stand together, "United we stand, divided we fall"
