Spring clean

Recycle Bank just off Ballyboden Road

The green island is a disgrace at times


Littering seems to get out of hand and it bothers me a lot. Nicole and I often clean the green spaces around our house and we would like to ask YOU to join in "the fun".

Many animals die from suffocation as they swallow our rubbish from plastic bags to can openers and it just has got to stop.

Please be responsible and educate others on the issue of littering.

WILD TIME is on next Friday (04.04.)with footage from a recent protest against fur. On April 11th a full length interview with wildlife - filmmaker Finn Van Gelderen will go out and on April 18th I am joined in the studio by reptile breeder Thomas McElherron.

And there is always more to come - please watch this space and listen in to WILD TIME every friday between 8p.m. - 9p.m.

DSPCA

I have just recently spent two days at the DSPCA on Mount Venus Road, where I saw first hand the brilliant work they're doing. The Dublin SPCA is the oldest Irish animal welfare organisation and has been established in 1840.

With a little luck the DSPCA will sit in with me on WILD TIME soon

Updates

WILD TIME host Thomas Janak just had a great 5-day run of overwhelming, mind-blowing and peace-bringing experiences during his first leg of an "Animal Spirit Medicine" Course he studies in the UK.

Naturally, Thomas visited places full of wild life such as the Bournemouth Aquarium. Currently some work goes into organising interviews with staff members of the aquarium, a woman that swam with dolphins and author and shamanic healer/teacher Simon Buxton, whose book "The Shamanic Way Of The Bee" is a fantastic piece of literature.

So far, nothing has been confirmed but watch this space for future announcements.

This coming friday Connor Kelleher from Batsprotection Ireland has his say on wild time as Thomas will bring you footage from a recent talk by Connor.

As we soon leap into April there is much more to come on wild time such as a fascinating conversation with wildlife filmmaker/photographer Finn Van Gelderen. Also Thomas McElheron, reptilebreeder, will join the wild time team in the studio soon.

All in all great shows lined up for all animal lovers of this earth.

... and his guest Miriam Anderson from Anvil

It was a very relaxed, yet informative show

Next week (Good Friday) Thomas is away in the UK studying Animal Spirit Medicine. But fear not as a pre-recorded show about the Mare&Foal Sanctuary in Newton Abbot/Devon (UK) goes out on Wild Time.

On March 28th WILD TIME will bring you footage that Thomas has recently recorded about the situation of our BATS in Ireland - and there is more to come in April.

Miriam Anderson from ANVIL on the show this friday

Yet another show to look forward to - Miriam Anderson from ANVIL (Animals need a voice in legislation) will be joining Thomas in the studio this friday.

People are already asking if we're off on Good Friday - the answer is NO, we're not!. The footage that Thomas recorded in February in the UK (Mare&Foal Sanctuary) will go out on good friday. The week after that WILD TIME will deal with bat conservation. And there is always more to come on wild time

"Just can't get enough"

One of our listeners texted in that all she can think of since the show last Friday is ERASURE. Well, they're still going strong!

Next Friday Thomas welcomes Miriam Anderson from Anvil to the studio. Anvil stands for Animals need a voice in legislation and Thomas will be talking to Miriam about how she thinks the current legislations, if there are any, ought to be changted to protect animals.

Speaking of protection: WILD TIME host Thomas Janak has a petition up on his website www.holisticanimalhealing.net where he is himself looking for protective rights for animals. Please sign it here

Helena LeMahieu from the animal sanctuary ASH in Kiltegan, who had already been a guest on Thomas's social justice show IN-DEPTH last year, came in yesterday to talk about the issues she has to deal with on a daily basis, her ideas on spaying and neutering and the hope that one day legislation will meet the needs of Irish animals.
