Do not allow the development of the AniMall plan as it is proposed

Addressed to: District Institute for Animal Welfare and Protection - Bogotá and 1 more
Foundations of Animal Protection such as Adopta No Compres, DoggyInHome, Alma Perruna, hundreds of other initiatives for the collection, recovery and adoption of street animals, as well as the anonymous work of countless natural persons, every day struggle to "denormalize" the idea of that the purchase of animals of race and the abandonment of animals is a reality to which we have to get used to.
It is demotivating, as a dog and feline mother, more for those foundations and people who fight every day until the last cent to stay afloat, to allow the formalization of Shopping Centers, where about 30% of their space will be dedicated to the sale of animals. These places, which have not only historically lived in enclosures with low standards of hygiene and care, glorify breeding practices and racial discrimination, but ultimately are only an incremental factor of the problems we see of overpopulation of animals.
There are countries that emphatically abolished breeding sites and adopted methods of punishment for abandonment and mistreatment, and we see that formalizing the sale of animals is a step in the wrong direction.
The future is that the places of sale of animals do NOT exist; Do we really want to move towards the future by making mistakes that we have already made before? I invite you to be on the right side of the story. To be silent is to live in complicity with injustice. We invite you to join this cause, and stop the AniMall plan include establishments selling animals.
