I really love Gene Baur’s book Farm Sanctuary: Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and Food. It was so wonderful to read about these people who started by selling veggie dogs at Grateful Dead concerts to running the largest farm animal sanctuary. There are also some wonderful animal stories and I felt like I really got to know some of Farm Sanctuary’s animal residents.
The book urges readers to extend the reach of human compassion and consume a kinder plate, making a better life for animals and for themselves. “Farm Sanctuary” is certain to touch readers through its unique approach and inspiring personal stories of hope.
Check out this adorable video of Lottie the lamb. At first she takes her time checking out the plants, but the fun really starts when she gets to play with the football.
As one of my favorite animal rights t-shirts says, What Kind of Asshole Eats a Lamb?
I love to share animal videos with you and this one is a beauty. Little Billy (who as you can see is adorable) is a male calf born in the dairy industry. I am sure most of you know what that means – he was destined for either veal crates or immediate slaughter.
He was going to be killed with a blow to the head, but luckily for Billy someone intervened. His rescuer was not a vegan or even a vegetarian, yet he couldn’t bear to see this calf suffer. I wonder whether Billy’s rescuer is vegan now? Watch below to find out what happened:
This video is another example of the wonderful work that Farm Sanctuary in the US do. To visit themclick here.
Watch the story of this beautiful goat, Gloria. I can’t believe the people who kept her previously at the race track let her udders get into such terrible condition.
There is something wonderfully heart warming about watching a videolike this. It shows the difference a sanctuary like Farm Sanctuary can make to individual animals lives. They look after the rescued animals so well and for this goat a life of hell has turned into a life of goat heaven.
Number of animals killed in the world by the meat, dairy and egg industries, since you opened this webpage. This counter does not include the billions of fish and sea animals killed annually.
