If Animals Could Talk

Animals can’t talk, but they feel pain. We were not put on earth to abuse, torture, and kill them. Yet it’s happening, right now. The animals can’t say stop, but you can.
5 billion US tax dollars are poured in to animal experimentation every year. With that money, 70 million animals are tortured and killed. That is at least fourteen a minute. Rabbits are routinely blinded by having product forced in to their eye. It does not even guarantee human safety, but it protects the company from lawsuits by it’s customers. I for one, am scared of the possibilities about what happens after the rabbits are blind and useless.
Watch where you get your eggs. Only buy cage free. Pretty much all other eggs come from “Battery Hens”. Battery hens live their whole lives in a cage so small that they can’t turn or spread their wings. They are starved for days in order to induce them to lay eggs. Imagine living your whole (short) life never seeing the sun, hungry and extremely uncomfortable, terrified of the person who is always coming to take your eggs, and getting beaten if you fight back. This is the life of a battery hen.
The entertainment industry is extremely cruel to animals. 50,000 greyhounds are killed or donated to animal experimentation a year. Killed or tortured just because they are inadequate for racing. Orcas and dolphins live only 25% of their natural life expectancy when captive. 40,000 bulls are killed a year in bloody bullfights every year-tortured for a hour with spears before they die of blood loss or exhaustion.
All animals feel pain no matter how smart they are. Please help stop cruelty to animals. Give the animals a voice-yours.
