“ … Here is another one. A change in what Human nature will allow for government. "Careful, Kryon, don't talk about politics. You'll get in trouble." I won't get in trouble. I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013.

They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

Kryon Q&A

Question: Dear Kryon: I live in Spain. I am sorry if I will ask you a question you might have already answered, but the translations of your books are very slow and I might not have gathered all information you have already given. I am quite concerned about abandoned animals. It seems that many people buy animals for their children and as soon as they grow, they set them out somewhere. Recently I had the occasion to see a small kitten in the middle of the street. I did not immediately react, since I could have stopped and taken it, without getting out of the car. So, I went on and at the first occasion I could turn, I went back to see if I could take the kitten, but it was to late, somebody had already killed it. This happened some month ago, but I still feel very sorry for that kitten. I just would like to know, what kind of entity are these animals and how does this fit in our world. Are these entities which choose this kind of life, like we do choose our kind of Human life? I see so many abandoned animals and every time I see one, my heart aches... I would like to know more about them.

Answer: Dear one, indeed the answer has been given, but let us give it again so you all understand. Animals are here on earth for three (3) reasons.

(1) The balance of biological life. . . the circle of energy that is needed for you to exist in what you call "nature."

(2) To be harvested. Yes, it's true. Many exist for your sustenance, and this is appropriate. It is a harmony between Human and animal, and always has. Remember the buffalo that willingly came into the indigenous tribes to be sacrificed when called? These are stories that you should examine again. The inappropriateness of today's culture is how these precious creatures are treated. Did you know that if there was an honoring ceremony at their death, they would nourish you better? Did you know that there is ceremony that could benefit all of humanity in this way. Perhaps it's time you saw it.

(3) To be loved and to love. For many cultures, animals serve as surrogate children, loved and taken care of. It gives Humans a chance to show compassion when they need it, and to have unconditional love when they need it. This is extremely important to many, and provides balance and centering for many.

Do animals know all this? At a basic level, they do. Not in the way you "know," but in a cellular awareness they understand that they are here in service to planet earth. If you honor them in all three instances, then balance will be the result. Your feelings about their treatment is important. Temper your reactions with the spiritual logic of their appropriateness and their service to humanity. Honor them in all three cases.

100kg endangered Chinese bahaba caught in Fujian province

China's Fisheries Management Bureau has been investigating media reports that an endangered and protected Chinese bahaba weighing 100kg was sold for three million yuan (US$479,000) in Fujian province, reports the Party-run People's Daily.

The fish has been placed under second-class state protection since numbers dropped to a mere dozen due to industrial pollution in coastal areas and overfishing. Lei Peng, the bureau's enforcement office, said any person capturing rare and endangered species would face a fine ten times that of the catch's value. The person would be fined 10,000 yuan (US$1,599) if no catch was caught.

The report published on Tuesday said a fisherman in Xiabaishi township in Fujian's city of Fu'an, received the fish as a gift from his son-in-law, which is part of a Chinese custom during the Dragon Boat Festival. The report went viral on the internet. Some netizens said the fish is worth a pre-owned house in a city.

The fish's swim bladder is considered a highly valuable medicine. Some people from Hong Kong and Wenzhou dry the swim bladder in the sun and sell them to Chinese medicine stores. The remains are sold to local hotels and restaurants.

The news agency tracked down the fish vendors selling the Chinese bahaba but they said seven of them jointly bid on the fish for 2.75 million yuan (US$439,000) and resold it at 3.15 million yuan (US$503,000) to businessmen from Xiapu in Fujian and Zhejiang province. They heard the fish was sold again to a wealthy merchant from Hong Kong.

Wang Wanhai, an employee at the border office, said that rumors were floating around on June 1 in the township that a fisherman had found and fished out a large fish floating in the water, but the fish has died.

A researcher with the marine and fisheries bureau in Ningde, Fujian province, said the fish grows in the estuaries of rivers and ports. The one found in the town could be 20 to 30 years old and has only been seen once in decades. The species was often caught in the water in Ningde in 1980s but its number has since dwindled to a dozen throughout the country. The prices is inflated from speculation rather than the real value of the collagen-rich fish, said the researcher.
