I cannot stand to see the distress placed on animals & all wildlife by the unguided and abuse of fireworks & fire crackers. Our family has incurred personal tragic loss of a dog due to the terror it was forced to endure by the abuse of fireworks.(Nelspruit Mbombela , 2017-01-02)

I love animals and hate the crackers causing unnecessary pain and causing animals to get hurt and the owners broken hearted(Nelspruit, 2017-01-02)

It is totally unacceptable to allow something that has caused so many animals to be left in distraught because of these crackers! So many are left homeless and dead for the pleasure of 1 nights 'pretty' lights. How do you justify that for the life of an innocent animal who has no choice but to trust in the pathetic human race to keep them safe as they cannot always defend them self.(nelspruit , 2017-01-02)

I have animals who were petrified even after medication and people were using fireworks in the street one house away. Even after telling them ut was illegal they didnt care less. No police or security came out!(Nespruit/ Mombela, 2017-01-02)

We have a neighbour (government offical) who sets off fireworks EVERY new year. When speaking to him he ignores you.. When calling the police/security companies as we are told to do nothing happens. Time to pass a law and lock these people up(Nelspruit, 2017-01-02)
#25
I can't bear the carnage that follows New Year's Eve any more. Please stop this archaic and cruel practice. Too many animals get traumatised and injured or killed by an evening of entertainment, not to mention what it must do to people with psychiatric disorders or PTSD.(White River, 2017-01-02)
#26
It is getting worse in stead of better! Will authorities only do something once a person is injured? I am sick and tired of having to dope my animals every year because of other people's selfishness. And then we have to drive the streets of Mbombela every year to rescue all the terrified animals! It is against the law in any case but our local law enforcement does nothing.(Nelspruit, 2017-01-02)

I consider the unmonitored use and sale of fireworks extremely dangerous to:- person, wildlife and livestock,
- poses fire hazards in a relatively dry country.
- people through personal injury to participants, spectators are innocent bystanders.
In addition there religious justification for there use is antiquated and shows total intolerance to others..
