Imagine with me for a moment, you are travelling on a bus and after hitting a bump; you lose your footing and fall. As you lay on the floor of the crowded bus, you feel a cold hard shoe step on your arm. You hear the crunch of your bones breaking and the high pitched scream of pain coming from your mouth. No one looks. No one notices. A second later those same cold hard shoes step your leg, stomach, and other arms. Again no one cares. You lay there, helpless and slowly trampled to death on the bus.

It isn’t a pleasant thought, but the reality is that in the United States, while billions of animals are sold, traded, and transported to their eventual deaths, they are also subjected to horrific cruelty.  The story above is one that has been documented many times by Animals’ Angels as farm animals and slaughter-bound horses are moved and transported to slaughterhouses. These defenseless animals are exploited for money without any consideration for their health and well-being which leads to untold suffering.

Cruelty to animals is something that is typically hidden from view.  Nowhere is this more evident than with farm animals and slaughter-bound horses. Although there are animal welfare laws in place, all too often enforcement agencies turn a blind eye or administer minor repercussions to violators.

The more we bring these atrocities to light and out into the open the less the violators can hide. Join us now as we raise our voices to speak out for those who have no voice.
