The fight against animal abuse is not just about protecting animals, it’s about protecting our own humanity and the values that make us civilized.
The victims of animal abuse are not just animals, but also the society that allows such cruelty to go unpunished.
Animal abuse is not just an individual problem, but a societal problem that requires collective action to end.
The true measure of a society is not in its wealth or power, but in how it treats the most vulnerable, including animals.
Animal abuse is not just a legal issue, it’s a moral issue that goes against the fundamental principles of compassion and empathy.
Animals are not just a means to an end, but individuals with their own feelings, thoughts, and needs.
The tragedy of animal abuse is not just in the suffering it causes, but in the lost potential of the animals and the lost humanity of the abuser.
Animal are not just things, they are living beings that deserve love, respect and protection.
The cruelty of animal abuse is not just in the act, but in the callousness and disregard for life that it represents.
Animal abuse is not just a crime against animals, it is a crime against humanity.
Elephants are NOT commodities, or products.
No one in the world needs an elephant tusk but an elephant.
– Thomas Schmidt
We are not the only animal that mourns; apes do, and elephants, and dogs. Yet we are the only one that tortures.
– Geraldine Brooks
We admire elephants in part because they demonstrate what we consider the finest human traits: empathy, self-awareness, and social intelligence. But the way we treat them puts on display the very worst of human behavior.
– Graydon Carter
Only elephants should own ivory.
– Yao Ming
Compassion, social intelligence, decisiveness, patience, wisdom. These are all qualities found in elephants and not found in the people allowing them to be killed for trophies.
– Ellen Degeneres
Elephants are big, powerful but fragile. We are dealing with a fragile eco-system. Look at the money involved in poaching. Man must give way to the elephant. We are not gong to allow anyone to come in the path of the elephant.
– Sharad A. Bobde
The fact that Trump has lifted President Obama’s ban on elephant trophies being imported into the country is a devastating blow to the survival of these beautiful animals. It’s savage and pointless. It breaks my heart.
– Ricky Gervais
I began to wonder why we cuddle some animals and put a fork in others.
– Henry Spira
Dear people with no soul, stop shooting elephants.
– Russell Crowe
Very concerned to hear about the poacher who was killed by an elephant, then eaten by lions. Hope they didn’t get indigestion.
– Piers Morgan
Take a picture not a trophy This is how real men shoot animals.
– Ricky Gervais
Unless we change our food choices, nothing else matters. Because it is meat that is destroying most of our forests. It is meat that pollutes the waters. It is meat that is creating disease which leads to all our money being diverted to hospitals. So, it’s the first choice for anybody who wants to save the Earth.
– Maneka Gandhi
Cows provide approx 100 million tonnes of dry dung a year costing Rs 5000 crores which saves 50 million tonnes of firewood which again means that many trees saved and more environmental damage prevented. It is calculated that if these 73 million animals were to be replaced, we would need 7.3 million tractors at the cost of 2.5 lac each which would amount to an investment of 180,000 crores. In addition 2 crore, 37 lakh and 50 thousand tonnes of diesel which would mean another 57,000 crore rupees. This is how much we owe these animals, and this is what we stand to lose by killing them.
– Maneka Gandhi
The skin of a python is no less precious to the snake than fur is to the fox.
– Maneka Gandhi
We all love animals. Why do we call some ‘pets’ and others ‘dinner?’
– K.D. Lang
There is an overabundance of rational reasons to say no to factory-farmed meat: It is the No. 1 cause of global warming, it systematically forces tens of billions of animals to suffer in ways that would be illegal if they were dogs, it is a decisive factor in the development of swine and avian flus, and so on.
– Jonathan Safran Foer
My children not only inspired me to reconsider what kind of eating animal I would be, but also shamed me into reconsideration.
– Jonathan Safran Foer
People who care about animals tend to care about people. They don’t care about animals to the exclusion of people. Caring is not a finite resource and, even more than that, it’s like a muscle: the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets.
– Jonathan Safran Foer
Are you a carnivore? Keep a newborn lamb as a pet in your home for one year, then try to slaughter and eat it.
