Vote for Animal Planet’s Hero of the Year
October 4th, 2006 11:46 am by KellyPlease take a moment to cast your vote for Animal Planet’s Hero of the Year. Ten contestants are up for the honor, which includes a $10,000 donation to the charity of the winner’s choice, as well as an undoubtedly much-needed vacation in Hawaii.
Be sure to read each nominee’s profile; each is impressive, which makes choosing just one deserving activist a tough task. The roster includes such notables as the founders/directors of the Elephant Sanctuary (TES), the Idaho Black Bear Rehabilitation Center (IBBR), Dogs Deserve Better (DDB), and the website Pet-Abuse.com.
Granted, I’m not always a huge fan of Animal Planet (for instance, in the mini-biographies, animals are referred to as “it”s as opposed to “him/her” or “them”), but this is a great way to show support and appreciation for our Animal Heroes. I only wish that I could vote for each nominee!
