There are people who are being paid to be cruel to animals. That’s what rabbit testing is… animal cruelty. Your shampoo, lipstick, or deodorant could have been injected into the eyes of a rabbit even when there are available alternatives to discover product toxicity. We have the power to spread the word about what’s happening, […]
This is undoubtedly one of the most challenging subjects to write about. It’s nearly impossible to read through the many WAF (World Animal Foundation) articles on animal testing and not skim over the pictures. These animals still endure horrendous animal testing and experiments. We know they’re suffering–all for the sake of our vanity and company profits. Animal […]
So glad we got your attention. Puppy mills or farms are notoriously inhumane and continue to break the few and insufficiently cruel guidelines that the AWA (Animal Welfare Act) or the USDA sets out. Puppy mills have an interesting business model. Basically, their slogan says, “Abused, Neglected, Unhealthy Puppies For Sale.” Yet, people continue to […]

Thankfully, conservation efforts are bringing about a change for many wild giraffes. However, the silent extinction among many of the nine subspecies is an ongoing concern as giraffe numbers for some species decline while others grow. Giraffe population […]
Oh – joy to the world – ’tis the merry season of seal clubbing. Beginning in April every year, people come together with huge clubs to beat tiny baby seals over the head. The act is brutal. The number of young seals that die in this vicious manner is devoid of humanity! But this merry […]
We take a lot of things for granted…Water, electricity, food, and the trees of the natural forest. But we’re not promised an endless supply of trees. The deforestation industry obviously disagrees. From Oregon to Ghana, you can hear the deafening boom of a tree falling and its history and biodiversity power with it. You might […]
It’s not an image that you can ever unsee. Those amber eyes, that wriggling nose, the soft paw in your palm, that telepathic message, Please, Take Me Home! You’re not standing at the window of an unscrupulous pet mill. Instead, you went for a stroll at your local mall and are facing a famous pet […]
Researcher Sara Lewis and co-author Sonny Wong published an article in BioScience magazine called A Global Perspective on Firefly Extinction Threats in early 2020, leading other scientists and conservation enthusiasts to take up the cause. They wrote, “Despite evidence of declines, a comprehensive review of the conservation status and threats facing the approximately 2000 firefly […]
