BABETTE- We remember you. In homage to all the wonderful companion animals who, with their innocence and boundless love, have illuminated our lives. Perhaps one day we'll meet again.

YOU ARE WELCOME TO OUR MOST CURRENT ISSUES ONLINE
There is a delay of 10 to 20 days between the appearance of the print edition and our online editions.
The Animal People site comprises two separate sections. The "HTML" or "regular" edition section, which displays pages in the accustomed way, and the "Flashpaper" ® section which presents the paper exactly as you would read it if you had it in your hands. The HTML version serves one article at a time and uses a normal URL. The Flashpaper edition is a "continuous scroll." The best way to decide which approach is best for you is to try them both. In addition, to these editions, the site archives approximately 4000 additional "old style" static pages. We hope you'll enjoy the experience, but if you have any comments, questions, or complaints...let us know.

Our colleagues at ANIMALS AUSTRALIA have released a splendid commercial asking us to do precisely that. The campaign is called "Make It Possible." Help us spread the word. Share it. Talk about it. Think of the ways in which we can accelerate the liberation of these creatures. And help the planet. Make it possible, at last.

A misfit in the U.S. because of his longstanding disagreements with US foreign policy and international postures regarding animals and the environment; a misfit in journalism as a commentator who liked to write in depth; and a misfit in the early animal rights movement because of his internationalist outlook and insistence that campaign strategies should be thought through...READ MORE
CATHY YOUNG CZAPLA Born in the hills near Rutland, Vermont, Cathy Young Czapla has lived most of her life in Randolph, just over the Green Mountain ridge. Wife of John Czapla, a Vermont Castings employee for more than 20 years, and mother of a grown son, Karl, Cathy told ANIMAL PEOPLE that she could not think of anything remarkable about herself to put into a brief biography, but editor Merritt Clifton has a differing view. “Cathy is a seldom-seen inhabitant of the same north woods as Champ, Memphre, Ponik, the Loup Garou, and the catamount. Her Quebecois, Scots, and Abenaki ancestors learned the secrets and advantages of invisibility...READ MORE
