Animal Tracks, Inc.

animal tracks inc
I found an incredible place that I wanted to tell y'all about called Animal Tracks, Inc. It's a sanctuary for rare and exotic animals that can't be returned to the wild.

You can visit Animal Tracks, Inc. in Southern California and meet some of their amazing residents. I don't mean to brag, but a monkey drew me a picture. Seriously.

You can also check out their website to learn more, make a donation, or become a sponsor. Their goal is to provide a sanctuary for these abused and misplaced animals, and to educate people about how we can help animals both in the wild and in captivity. I'm glad that there are organizations like this out there. You can learn a lot from a monkey.

Bren I wish I had had that experience. It just didn't pull me in, tfrheroee I kept waiting for a naked Dustin Hoffman to appear.I really liked, however, now that you mention it the creepy sense in certain scenes that the dreamer was aware of what was going on with all of the dream-extras glancing over at the extractor as they pass by very creepy. It plays on every moment of paranoia anyone has ever had, where they feel that everyone is talking about them. I wish I had believed like you did! I'm glad you did.

Hello Ellen, Not sure if you can help, I work at Abington Surgical Center in PA and we have stray cats that we have had spayed and neutered and build shelters for and feed on a daily basis the shelters are under trees so you really can't see them from the road, the Hospital that owns the property had no problems with us taking care of these cats there are about 30 in 6 separate shelters they want us to get rid of these cats in 6 months and it's really upsetting to all of us that care for these cats. we are trying to tell the people from the Hospital tha about 10 years ago they trapped all the cats and had them euthenized it was such a shame they were just trying to survive, they don't bother anybody and they live under the trees so they are no problem. I don't know if you know anyone out here that can help us or make some suggestions for us on what to do. Thank you for listening.

I am honoured to be part of a Canadian sanctuary for monkeys. Some of our residents have been mistreated or unwanted, retired from zoos, research, etc too. We too are a charitable organization that relies on donations. Please help us help them. Please visit www.storybookfarmprimatesanctuary.com. We appreciated any support you can offer. Many thanks, Jenn, Barn Manager. P.S. We would love to share our story with Ellen.

This definitely makes perfect sense to anyone!!

We try to help our local shelter-GriffonPond Animal Shelter in Clarks Summit, PA.

I want to adopt another dog but just can't afford the fees right now.

Good morning Ellen

Hello I want you to visit the website indiegogo and begin a campaign immediately for your daughter. It is a way to raise money and provides ways to increase publicity and donations. Please take a look and I wish you the best of luck.

I am coming to you to get help. I am the single mother of 4 very beautiful children, who are very huge fans of yours. My youngest daughter, who is 8 yrs old is really a huge fan. She suffers from epilepsy. She was diagnosed at the age of 3 with this very life changing serious illness. Seh has already undergone two brain surgeries. One at the age of three and the other just theis pas May 2010. she is still not seizure free and must take 3 antiepileptic drugs giving her some relief but still not full relief from these seizures. This little girlhas been through so much. She has had anything but a normal childhood. Right now we are trying very hard to raise the funds to help her get a Seizure Response Dog. Thsi dog is her dream and her gateway to independence and a chance at some normalcy in her childhood. Since she was diagnosed with epilepsy she has not been able to sleep by herself. She has had to sleep with me becasue she has seizures in her sleep and there is something called SUDEP. This can sort of be compare to SIDS. It is Sudden Unexplained Death In Epilepsy. She is at risk for this. Having this dog would help limit that risk. This dog is trained to call for assistance on a cell phone, to get help, to move herto a safe place, to keep her safe from getting her, to operate a VNS (Vagal nerve Stimulator) - used to help control seizures, trained in water and rescue safety, can sometimes detect seizures even 20 to 30 minutes before they occur, has a response time to seizures of 4 to 6seconds. This is life changing. We are getting this dog from an organization in New York. The organization is called Seizure Alert Dogs for Life Inc. This organization is awesome and it stands on its own from many others. They bring the dog out to her and they spend two weeks in her own environment doing the training and such to get the dog and my daughter accimated with each other. however, the cost is ehfty...the cost is $18K so we need the help of friends, family and especially the community we are in to help my daughter, Rebecca reach her dream. She wants this more than anything and I told her I will do everything necessary to make sure she is able to reach her dream. Through this Rebecca not only wnats to reach this dream but she wants to tough the lives of others by helping and teahcing others about epilepsy, an illness that so many know so little about. We hope that through all of this we can bring much awareness. This is a little girl that is the most selfless. She is so interested in wanting to help others. Please take the time to see how you can help us.

She has a website that we built for her. You and others can log onto it for information, updates, to make donations, post messages or communicate to her through email. Her website is:
www.helpingboo.com

Please see how you can help us really get out there to reach everyone in the community. Without the support of our community it will be very difficult to reach our goal. This goal must be reached by the beginning of June in order for her to get the dog. We are currently at $8,500.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my email. She is truly a special little girl. Iknow you may get a lot of emails or requests, but please help to keep this special little girl in my life...in our community's life...she can make such a difference.

Another celebrity brainwashed by animal rights activist about the seal hunt.....get your facts straight before posting such rubbish on your site, if you remove the comments, remove the banner as well or are you trying to brainwash other people as well.

Yes, I as well am dissapointed by the removal of the comments section of the seal hunt debate. An open and honest discussion was taking place which will help people understand the facts and reality of the hunt and expose PETA for the slanderous and propaganda spreading organization that they are. Animal tracks is a fantastic organization btw.

Hello Ellen,

I love your video with Crystal, does she have a girl friend? Just asking. I love you and your show, you make me laugh so much, thank you!

Thank you for putting up the link for Animal Tracks, Inc. As a volunteer who works for Animal Tracks, we need all the exposure we can get. All donations go the feeding, housing, and well being of all the animals. Crystal, the capuchine monkey on your shoulder, is a great ambassidor for all her animal friends here at the ranch. Thanks, again for helping in getting our message out.

Ellen,
That is one famous monkey. It has to be worth a lot of money that monkey.
This is my 170th comment going towards my goal of getting a comment back from you.
Please think about Dani Shay. She is amazing. please have her on your show. She is awesome and you'll see that too.
Ellen, Portia, mama, keep up the good work, love you guys.

Oh my!! This is just too cute.

Hi Ellen's People , why were all the comments taken off the seal hunt section? I thought that Ellen believed in not judging and freedom of speech.I guess she is in a position now that she is surrounded by" YES men" and even if she is wrong they make it all right for her..I am so disappointed in Ellen, I know that she is just a person and makes mistakes, but I really thought that someone in her position would get things straight, the truth, before she supported something like the anti- seal hunt and that PETA.
Ellen,come back to the real world, look into this for yourself! I always thought you were wonderful,bright, so full of life and optimism..you were ALWAYS so inspirational! I loved your sit comedies, I read your book and it made me laugh, during a time I really needed it and I was one of the first in front of the TV when your present tv show came on! Please investigate the seal hunt with an open mind..do you really think us Canadians could be cruel , especially the beautiful Newfoundlanders..you know, the people who took the Americans in when their planes had to land there on Sept 11 2001. Ask those Americans do these people seem like bloody sadist killers of cute little seals, so people could wear their pelts for vanity? Thank you

this cute little one is smiling like you,,looks very please to be your friend,,like every one else,,keep up your good work you are amazing human being,,,love you,,,
