"Recently unveiled plans have confirmed that organisers plan to use dozens of live animals in the Opening Ceremony for the London 2012 Olympic Games. Subjecting animals to a crowd of 62,000 people, the noise, lights and atmosphere within the Olympic stadium is irresponsible and has the potential to seriously compromise the animals' welfare. We demand that the plans for the use of live animals are withdrawn immediately. The UK prides itself on being a nation of animal lovers - exploiting animals on this global stage is unacceptable."
