Unfair.

I know you're not a chicken.
And I'm not asking you to be.
I'm just asking you to put yourself in it's shoes.
Yeah, sounds pretty weird now.
Not when its heated and killed and eaten.

'It's the circle of life.'
'There would be too many chickens if we stopped eating them'
Are those the only reasons you have?

  • Its not just chickens. 
  • Its a lot of animals, taken down for a lot of causes.
  • It's not just for food. Its for animal testing, clothes, and for OUR luxuries.
In many circuses, wild and exotic animals are trained through the use of intimidation and physical abuse. Former circus employees have reported seeing animals beaten, whipped, poked with sharp objects and even burned to force them to learn their routines!

Elephants who perform in circuses are often kept in chains for as long as 23 hours a day from the time they are babies.

More than 15 million warm-blooded animals are used in research every year. (animal-testing for OUR products)

Scientists estimate that 100 species go extinct every day! That's about one species every 15 minutes.

Dog fighting and cock-fighting are illegal in all 50 states of USA.

Eighteen red foxes are killed to make one fox-fur coat, 55 minks to make a mink coat.

Before races, horses are put on high steroids so they run faster and that harms their bodies in a HUGE way.

After race dogs are old and not fast enough to compete, either they are killed or thrown in a pile.

These are just a few facts, probably the most alarming.
Atleast to someone like me.
In my point of view, when I think of watching this, it sends goosebumps down my back.
Some people think its cool to kill stuff, like ants and kick their dogs when they do something bad.
If you were .... a dog, for instance.
All you're trying to do is learn.
Think about if you get kicked, shouted at, thrown away when you make a mistake.

It's a little like child abuse.
But children can speak.
Animal's can't.

It's really scary, how people don't care anymore.
How people can watch this.
How people can make dirty money, watching this cruelty.

This post is just to make people aware, and to stand up for animal cruelty, if you witness it anywhere.
Seriously, its disgusting.
Help if you can, our world needs it.
