When the day comes for you to make an animal your family member, think of the thousands of animals that are waiting for a home in dreary shelters.
Go there, stay long and decide with your heart.
You will quickly feel who you want to share your life with.
Never buy an animal.
Friends are not for sale

The PETA undercover horse-drugging Investigation that changed racing as we knew it
Did you know this year’s #KentuckyDerby# marks the FIRST drug-free year of the Triple Crown?
This is progress and follows years of PETA work. There’s still more the horse racing industry can do!
And I mean… In the United States, nearly 500 thoroughbreds died in competitions and hundreds more in training in 2018.
48 horses have been killed on German racetracks since 2015. Already eight horses in 2019 alone.
The number of unreported “failures” during training is higher because these are not included in the count.
“Raceorses” are tortured and beaten to the point of death. They either die on the racetrack or end up in the slaughterhouse as soon as their performance deteriorates.
“Racehorses” are regularly given medication by trainers to hide the animals’ pain and improve their performance.
Who thinks that’s good?
Only unscrupulous who are directly or indirectly involved in this billion dollar business.
There is no justification whatsoever for the cruelty inflicted on these animals.
The horse racing industry will not give up its billion dollar businesses voluntarily.
We are all responsible for forcing them to stop this criminal business.

France: A fox released by walkers who sent the images to friends and wish to remain anonymous.
(⚠ To attack a trap installed in the rules can be considered as an offense if the trapper lodges a complaint)
Civil courage is in demand everywhere nowadays.
Most wildlife only experience violence, suffering, or captivity from the hunter.
All over.
That is why we need brave activists all over the world.
Thanks to the liberators

THE PLANET’S WORST ENEMY: Our investigators used drones to obtain rarely-seen evidence of the environmental destruction caused by factory farming.
What they witnessed at this farm was shocking (Video)
Animal Equality
And I mean… We currently have a self-sufficiency in beef of 96% in Germany and by the end of the year it will not be 91%.
There is already a lot of meat coming from South America, where the animals are kept up to 40,000 in a lot of cattle and are already cutting down the rainforest because we Europeans buy their meat.
If bull fattening is stopped in Germany, the South Americans will clear even more forests.
Anyone who can count two plus two can also think for themselves who is causing the deforestation.
What do the cows eat?
Because in order to manage their 30-40 liters + per day, they have not been given grass for a long time, but also high-energy soy.
Less than 10% of the soy produced worldwide is consumed by humans, the majority of soy production is not used to make tofu, but to feed animals.
“Everyone should eat what he wants” – that is the gospel of the meat eaters!
Not everyone can eat what they want.
We don’t eat people either.
We don’t send our children to work either, but to school and, as a rule, we don’t drive 180 in the 30 zone.
So what would be the problem if we in the developed western countries finally start eating ethically correct?
And by the way: We will no longer experience the horrors of climate change that our grandchildren and great-grandchildren have to endure.
But the survivors will hate us all for our environmental crime.

Animal Equality’s undercover investigation has revealed a number of serious legal violations at P&G Sleigh Pig Unit in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, a ‘quality assured’ pig farm which is owned by senior pig industry figure, Philip Sleigh.
Philip Sleigh
Animal Equality sent letters outlining the breaches of animal welfare legislation to the relevant authorities, urging them to take immediate action against this facility using the full force of the law.
A criminal investigation is underway.
As individuals, the best thing we can do to help pigs just like the ones we filmed on this farm is keeping them off our plates and encouraging others to choose plant-based alternatives to animal products too.
Animal Equality has investigated 10 British pig farms within five years, finding severe animal suffering and flagrant disregard for animal welfare in every single one.
This is yet another case of an accredited ‘high welfare’ farm flouting the law.
The recordings of the undercover research show:
● Female breeding pigs who are repeatedly artificially inseminated and are forced to give birth and suckle their piglets in cages so small that they cannot even turn around
● Piglets who routinely have their tails cut off with a hot blade and their teeth cut off with pliers, without any anesthesia or pain relief
● Piglets that are killed directly on the premises because they are classified as too small or too weak
● Animals hit with a hammer
● Pigs hit against the hard, concrete floor
● Sows with labia injuries and severe prolapses, in which the uterus or internal organs protrude from the body
● a pig with an extremely severe uterine prolapse that was forced to stand and walk for over a minute and a half before being killed
● Pigs raised in poor, dark conditions
● Pigs living in pens flooded with water and faeces without access to dry bedding

We did an appeal on 23 April to get little Cam bear rescued from his torment as a bile bear – do you remember ?
We participated and donated to help with the rescue. Well the great news from Four Paws is that Cam has been rescued and is currently under quarantine at the rescue facility in Nihn Binh.
Here is the latest from Four Paws which we received today, 30/4/21:
Success: Young bear Cam is safe now
But this was anything but an easy rescue! We found the underweight and exhausted Asiatic black bear in a very stressed condition as the owner had moved him to another tiny cage before we arrived. Even though Cam was given voluntarily to us, the circumstances meant our team and the bear didn’t get the time they needed to calmly walk into the transport crate. But our experienced staff made the best of the situation as well as the short time and succeeded with this challenging and rushed mission.
After a short drive the bear and the team have arrived safe and sound at our BEAR SANCTUARY Ninh Binh.
Cam is currently in the quarantine station, where he will receive veterinary care from FOUR PAWS Viet veterinarians and caretakers over the next few weeks. To settle in he got some watermelon and honey treats to enjoy and recover.
Thank you for all your unconditional dedication and support.

Monkeys, demented by genetic engineering, should help in the search for Alzheimer’s drugs!!
The notifying parties argue that the number of patients is increasing rapidly. But patent critics do not want to condone such practices.
Munich
A patent on monkeys and other animals in which symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease are triggered by genetic engineering causes protests among patent opponents.
It protects rodents, primates, and great apes, which are specifically made demented for research in the pharmaceutical industry and then used as laboratory animals.
The organization Testbiotech announced that opposition has now been filed against the patent.
The European Patent Office (EPO) confirmed receipt of the opposition.
“The patented process is associated with considerable suffering for the animals – the specific medical benefit, on the other hand, seems questionable”, said Christoph Then from Testbiotech.
There are ethical concerns.
Last but not least, such patents could create economic incentives for unnecessary animal testing.
“But no profit should be made from the suffering of animals,” says Then.
https://www.abendzeitung-muenchen.de/bayern/alzheimer-affen-fuer-forschung-patentiert-art-723253
And I mean…The patenting of animals in Europe has been hotly contested since 1992.
At that time, a genetically modified mammal was patented for the first time in Europe, the so-called ‘cancer mouse’
They wanted to earn money with it as a pathology model and test system for drugs.
To date, the history of cancer research is the story of how to cure cancer in mice.
Mice have been cured of cancer for decades, but to this day it still doesn’t work for humans.
It is undeniable that the treatments for some types of cancer give some success.
But in view of the billions in investments and the millions upon millions of animal sacrifices, the overall balance is more than frustrating.
And yet the patent on the cancer mouse drove the number of animal experiments up
Since 1990, the EPO has granted thousands of similar patents, mostly on laboratory animals, but in some cases also on animals used for agriculture such as cattle and pigs.
This is a commercial incentive to keep doing more animal testing.
The pharmaceutical industry has tried for decades to convince us that every health problem and disease can be repaired, which is an outrageous lie.
The fact that animal experiments are still carried out today, despite the animal-free and high-quality in-vitro methods, shows which unscrupulous charlatans our health depends on.
We will fight for a total ban on animal patenting.
Because it is about a lot of suffering for animals and in view of previous failures a success here seems very doubtful.

Ban on live export by sea announced!
On 14 April 2021, Minister of Agriculture Damien O’Connor announced a ban on the export of live animals by sea. The trade will be phased out over the next two years.
Please email the Prime Minister and Minister of Agriculture to thank them for banning live export by sea and to demand that this ban be implemented immediately.
Take Action
Two years is too long – Demand an immediate ban on live export
This email will be sent directly to Rt Hon Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, Minister of Agriculture Hon Damien O’Connor, and Associate Minister of Agriculture (Animal Welfare) Hon Meka Whaitiri. You will also receive a copy for your records. Emails are public information ‒ if you would like any of your information withheld, please state this in your email.
This month, the New Zealand Government announced a ban on all livestock export by sea. More than 57,000 of you directly pleaded with our Prime Minister and Minister for Agriculture, asking them both for a ban on cruel live export – and our voices were heard.While this is a historic step forward, we are concerned about the tens of thousands of animals that will continue to suffer for the next two years during phase-out, as well as the animals that continue to be exported by air.
The Minister for Agriculture has said he could end this trade now and he’s chosen not to.
This isn’t good enough for animals, and it’s not good enough for us as campaigners.
Help SAFE take action by emailing the Prime Minister and Minister of Agriculture to thank them for banning live export by sea and to demand that this ban be implemented immediately.
TAKE ACTION:
Call for an IMMEDIATE Ban
Government moves to ban live export – SAFE | For Animals

This is criminal. Nothing more. Not less.
The deliberate transformation of a living being into a bundle of suffering and silent despair is a crime – what else should be a crime?
This picture tells its own story without saying a word.
But we say: what we did not understand centuries ago, we cannot understand today either.
That animals are not our slaves, not our food, not our objects of torture.
They have their right to live as roommates in peace on this planet.
But the plague of this planet, man, allows itself the fascist right to impress, enslave them, kill them and eat them.
Never can humanity be ashamed enough of it
