There is little that seperates humans from other sentient beings-We all feel pain, we all feel joy, we all deeply crave to be alive and to live freely and we all share this planet together.
Here is a list of products that ARE tested on animals. And below are what the animals go through when you purchase these products. Go to peta.org to get a list of products that are NOT tested on animals.

There are many things you can do to help animals. It's hard to do it all, but anything and everything helps. There are many wonderful websites that have great ideas! Some steps to take could be getting active, buying cruelty free products, becoming vegetarian or vegan, volunteering, sigining petitions (www.thepetitionsite.com animal welfare)donating money to one of the many animal organizations or reporting any animal cruelty or abuse you see in your neiborhood. The most important thing is to understand that all creatures can be happy and feel pain and we need to speak for them since they can not.
Movies
If you think it's ok to go or take your children to the circus, you need to watch this. It's unethical and inhumane the way these animals are treated to perform for humans. They deserve to live live a happy life in their natural habitat.
Television
Every year millions of animals are euthanized because of irresposible, ignorant people. Although pets are not disposable, some people think they are. Shelters are overpopulated, which casues so many animals to die. There just aren;t enough homes for them. People are breeding, and not spaying and neutering their pets which causes the overpopulation, which causes death. The solutions is easy! Spay and neuter your pet, and if you're getting a new pet, adopt and DO NIT buy from a breeder who profits from misery.
Books
Each year in canada, thousands of seals will die for their fur. They are ruthlessly clubbed and then skinned, many of them still alive. This will only stop if you do something about it!
Heroes
In China, dogs and cats are skinned alive for their fur. Everywhere, animals are trapped and then skinned for their fur. This is discusting, unethical and inhumane!
I have had many people ask me how I can be so in to animal rights and be for pit bulls. I'll tell you why....It's because those animals are trained to be fighters, they aren't born that way! Any breed can be trained to be vicious. I do get that certain breeds have certain traits, but that does not mean that every pit bull is evil or any other breed with a steryotype.

About me:
There are so many issues in this world, but I believe if you are passionate about something, you should do everything you can to raise awareness about the issue and do what you can to stop it. I want to bring awareness to people about animal issues that happen every day. Most people do care for animals, but don't understand a lot of what's behind the scenes with certain issues such as farming, the fur trade, animals in entertainment and animal testing. I believe that if more people were aware of how these beautiful and helpless creatures were being treated, a lot of it would stop. There is so much that these industries try to hide from us so that we go about our daily business, not thinking that anything cruel or wrong is going on. In reality, there are so many animals that suffer and are alone, and for no good reason. If you do nothing, about something, it will never change.
Did you know that it's illegal to break in to save one animal thats being endlessly totured, but there are no regulations to what is being done to the animals that are suffering inside? The animals are fully concious, with no pain killers while they are electricuted, burned and cut open. Think about that evertime you purchase a product that was tested on animals. Just remember all that they suffered and endured so you could have the prettiest nail polish and the best smelling shampoo.
Who I'd like to meet:
Please don't ask me to take this off my page because you don't want your child to see it. Instead, show them and explain to them that this is not ok!
Why do you think slaughter houses are tucked away where you can't see them? Because if you could see what really happens behind those walls, you probably wouldn't eat meat. These animals are confined their whole life in small areas where they are unable to stretch or turn around. Animals are put on a conveyor belt where their throats are slit (Some not dying) to drain their blood. Can you even imagine how terrified these poor animals are? This will never stop if people keep purchasing meat. If you do want to eat meat, buy free range. At least the animal got to live a happy life before being slaughtered.

Anthony Marr will lead a FUNERAL MOTORCADE FOR THE DEER in Kansas City on Dec. 9, Wednesday, at the Shawnee Mission Park - "Death Park" - where 313 deer have been slaughtered in November, and another 70-90 are slated to be killed by bow-hunters as of Dec. 9.
Bear in mind that the non-lethal wounding rate by arrow is close to 50%, meaning: to kill 90, they have to shoot 180. And this is in spite of the Immuno-Contraceptive (IC) technology for deer having already been approved for field implementation by both the FDA and the EPA, plus Anthony's own humane, effective and economical IC-delivery invention known as the Auto Deer Assembler (DAA).
Jason Miller, on left in the following video (Part 1 of 7), one of the hot activists and revolutionary thinkers of our time (www.ThomasPaynesCorner.org), will be the organizer and host of the event.
THE MIRACLE WORKER: for those who feel meaningless, powerless and worthless
Legend has it that in the Snows of Kilimanjaro, the carcass of a plains leopard was found; no one knows what the leopard was up there to seek. But when I ascended the great mountain, I knew, for I was there to seek the very same thing.
At pain of extra weight, I packed a gun, not that there anything to hunt up on that altitude, nor was I a hunter in any sense of the word. And in an ice cave amidst the cravasses of the glacier, when the setting sun suffused my chosen tomb with a rosey glow, I shed my last tear on the shoulder of no one who cared, said my final farewell to the cruel and meaningless world, and pointed the gun at my head...
Recently, the Northern Territory government announced plans to kill 3000 camels by means of aerial shooting in the township of Docker River. Thirsty and in search of water, the camels converged on the community of Docker River. Instead of assisting the community by building barriers to keep the camels out of the township and investing in long term solutions such as research into birth control or the construction of a manmade waterhole for the camels to drink from, the government are planning to herd the animals away from the town, shoot them and leave their bodies to rot. Despite the outrage of thousands of concerned people from around the world, the Northern Territory government has given the green light for the cull to go ahead and thousands of scared camels are now being annihilated by marksmen from helicopters.
wieder sollen Zehntausende Hunde auf Bali getötet werden, um die Verbreitung der Tollwut einzudämmen. Die Tiere werden dabei mit dem Mittel Strychnin vergiftet.
Für die Hunde bedeutet dies einen grausamen Tod. Sie leiden bei vollem Bewusstsein schmerzvolle Muskelkrämpfe und Atemnot bis sie schließlich ersticken.
Doch es gibt Hoffnung. Dank der großartigen Unterstützung vieler Tierfreundinnen und Tierfreunde, habe wir es geschafft, den balinesischen Behörden einen Teilsieg abzuringen: Alle Hunde, die von uns geimpft und entsprechend markiert werden, werden nicht getötet. Zusammen mit unserer Mitgliedsorganisation Bali Animal Welfare Associaltion (BAWA) wollen wir so schnell wie möglich diese Impfungen durchführen, um möglichst viele Hunde zu retten.
Bitte helfen Sie uns, dass schnellstens wenigstens 40.000 Hunde geimpft werden. Wir brauchen dringend Ihre Unterstützung für genügend Impfstoff, Einmalspritzen und Halsbänder.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So können Sie helfen: •5 EUR kosten der Impfstoff, ein Halsband und die Spritze gegen Tollwut für zwei Hunde.
•10 EUR kostet die Impfung von 10 Hunden.
•65 EUR ermöglichen die Schulung zweier lokaler Tierärzte, wie sie herrenlose Tiere einfangen, schonend sterilisieren und medizinisch gut versorgen, damit zukunftig unnötige Tötungsaktionen verhindert werden können.
Urban deer massacre ("culling"), combined with unadulterated fun-killing (bow-hunting), is a national disgrace. Through my last 6 Compassion for Animals Road Expeditions (CARE-1 - CARE-6, 2003-2008, each covering 25-42 states over 3-7 months), I have worked with activists in no less than 25 states whose by-and-large pro-culling and pro-hunting officials discharge their "deer management" duties by means of bullets and arrows.
The current hottest battle in the "Deer War" is at the Shawnee Mission Park, Kansas City, which local activists have dubbed "Death Park". There were supposedly some 575 deer living in the 3.7 sq.mi. urban park. Local officials estimate the maximum deer population density to be 50 per sq.mi., which produces the maximum allowable total number of 185 in the park. Up to December 9, 313 deer had been culled by "Dr. Death" Anthony DeNicola. This yields a remaining population of about 260, about 75 higher than the limit of 185, and 75 is about what the Park Board has allocated to the bow-hunters, 15 of whom have been granted permits to do the dirty deed, with pleasure of course...

Despite there being a ban on commercial whaling, Right now the Japanese whaling fleet are in the southern ocean whale sanctuary, where they plan on slaughtering 935 minke and 50 endangered fin whales, Goverments of the world are not doing enough if anything to stop this, I urge people to boycott Japan and please sign petitions and write to Japanese embassies around the world to put pressure on the Japanese Govt, as well as your own govt. Whaling is totally unnecessary, barbaric and cruel, whaling needs to end today!!

If solo, it'd be by car:
If accompanied (anyone with a bike or car and an adventurous spirit out there?), it'd be by motorcycle:
Either way, it will be for the animals, our children and the planet. Here is the itinerary. Could anyone organize an event and/or make a donation and/or offer Anthony a place to stay?

Not fast enough to elude the cop unfortunately, but I've got a much faster bike now. :D
Of course that mini-Harley (not mine really) barely sips gas, but even my Kawasaki Ninja ZZR, capable of 175 kph and 0-60 mph in 5.7 seconds, gives 80+ mpg hwy. This is about as green a personal vehicle as one can find capable of long distance travel, short of a full electric vehicle with a range of 250 miles per charge like the Tesla. But then, the Tesla costs $100,000, whereas the Ninja cost me barely $3000 with only 2,000 mi. on the odometer. And even if I had a full electric vehicle, as long as the electricity comes from coal, it's just like burning gas. By the way, the Ninja 250 is so popular with women it has the nickname of "Ninjette" (see www.Ninjette.org).
Regardless of gender, I strongly advise you to try out motorcycling as a means of transportation. Of course, the rider should be vegetarian if not vegan, to cut methane emissions from the animal industries. A vegan driving a Hummer emits less greenhouse gasses than a meat-eater riding a bicycle! Besides, short of flying, motorcycling is about as much fun as fun can get!
The aerial shooting of wolves in Alaska has begun once again. They are losing a battle they they find hard to win. As I walk alone into the night, Scared and lonely with no more fight. I try to think of what is was that made them hate me so, Somebody out there please hear my cries, I'm tired and lonely. I don't want to die. I am lost and wondering with no place left to go, My loved ones were taken down below. The shadows of wings came flying over above, I had turned my head to see nothing but blood. Nothing for me to do but run, Oh, how they had taken the ones I love. I hide behind a tree, Hoping they won't see me. Trying to catch my breath, All I hear is death. Why have they forsaken me, Taking our souls and our dignity. I run away as far as I can, Knowing tomorrow there will be Wings landing again. So if you hear my cries across the skies, Please ask them for me. Why? And when they look at you with a grin, With an answer that makes no since. Please tell them for me, That I now too have wings to fly!
Please help stop aerial hunting! Thank you so muc for the friendship, I cherrish everyday that I live, and everyday that I have you as a friend! Love always,John Wolf
Thank you my wonderful friend, Thank you for being you, Thank you for being there for me, I will never forget your greatness and your heart, And how you helped save the Life of another! Thank you for saving me!
Love Always, John Wolf
The blood in my veins is that of yours, The air you breathe is the same as mine, I hunt to live, you hunt for sport, Yet our hearts are to beat as one, For when are hearts are in time, The world is at peace, Yet still you make my heart still, Until I may be let to breathe again, The world shall never be at rest. So let me breathe and roam the land free, Do you not see how alike we are? You and me? Just let me breathe, and be free.

A poem for the animals and victims of unfounded killings! Get involved in anyway you can to help the people and animals in your community. Help us secure a place in this world for everyone, let us beat as one.
Dear Santa, I'm older But, still believe in you (At least, I believe in The things you try, to do).
Maybe, I can't ask for A Tonka, or, a train. (But, if you'd bring one of them You know, I won't complain).
But, what I really wish for Is a special present Love that can't be "returned" Once it has been sent.
Everybody needs a little And some, need a lot But, if you get a tiny bit You still know what you got.
So Santa, drop a little Under each Christmas tree Then, all will get a present From what it's 'posed to be.
And if there is no tree For the alone, and poor When you get, to their place Just, drop, a little more.
John and I want to wish you the best for the Holiday Season!! Your friendship is the greatest gift we could have been given and are so thankful that you are a part of our lives! Wishing you a Merry Christmas and the Happiest of New Year's!
