werewolves with a passion

I know some of you readers are thinking, all right erotica. I know this genre is huge but this is not my genre. What passion I am talking about is Dan's and Lizzy's passion for all living creatures. This is my passion too, so why wouldn't it show up in my wrting.

If you have read any of my reviews or comments from my readers you will find statements like this: Her love of animals comes through in her writing. In the back-story of all my stories you'll find animals. The horrors in the Wild series are not for the squeamish.

The first of the Wild series, Wild Evolution, involves illegal trapping and loss of habitat for a local wolf pack. The second in the series, Wild Justice, deals with canned hunting facilities. The third in the series, Wild Legacy, encompasses the issue of unnecessary animal testing for medical labs.

Some of the bears in Wild Justice are described as having their teeth pulled and declawed. This comes from the barbaric practice called 'bear bating'. This is where they take domestic bears, declaw them and pull their teeth then chain them up in a pen. Then they let the dogs loose. People have the audacity to call this training their dog to tree bears for hunting purposes. They do this in front of cheering crowds. It is probably the same people that go to illegal dog fighting matches. I can't believe people could be so heartless.

You'd think this only happens in third world countries, but it happens right here in the US. The Humane Society of the United States just ran an article about this in their All Animals magazine in the September issue called 'Torment in the Arena'. This gives me nightmares. You can't get much more horror than this.

The canned hunting facility is where they fence in an area so the animal cannot escape. The hunter pays big dollars to hunt bears, wild African goats, boars, elk, or whatever they can get a hold to make a good trophy head for the mighty hunter to hang in their den.

They hunt these animals down using four-wheelers and dogs. The animal has nowhere to hide. Packs of dogs tear the poor animal's flesh right off the bones before they are called off so the mighty hunter can get a good shot. The hunter's bullet is a release from the terror and pain the animal goes through for the all mighty dollar.

In the US we still test to see if soap in the eyes will sting, is that stupid or what? Many rabbits snap their necks trying to wiggle out of the straps that hold them down so they can free themselves from the causic solution dropped in their eyes. This is done to see if the solution will cause redness or swelling when they already know it does.

You can't get much more horror than this, that is why I choose to use real life horrors in the Wild series. I have to admit I get some pleasure in letting the bad guys get what they deserve in the Wild series.
