The Municipality of Belo Horizonte instituted December 10th as the Municipal Animal Defense Day. The information was published in the edition of the Official Gazette of the Municipality (DOM) this Tuesday (30).
The decision in favor of Bill 1863/2016 was commemorated by councilor Sérgio Fernando Pinho Tavares (PV), author of the document. “The 10th was chosen because it is precisely on this date that the International Animal Rights Day (Dida) is celebrated. The purpose of this law is to make the population, especially the younger generation, aware of the importance of taking good care of all animals. We want to expand the fight for their defense”, explained the politician.
Still according to Tavares, there is still no definition of how the schedule will be to celebrate the date. “We still don't have any special project for the day, but when the date approaches, we'll think about the schedule”, concluded the councilor.
