Vamsee Juluri, Professor of Media Studies at the University of San Francisco, takes me back to graduate school when he writes of the importance of the stories we tell ourselves in " Use Free Speech to Celebrate Animal Life, Not to Enjoy Their Suffering." They certainly depict cruelty to animals, right? What do you think?

If your dog is one of many that suffers from separation anxiety (this is more common in rescued and re-homed dogs , but also varies in all dogs no matter their origins), leaving him alone while you’re off working a 9 to 5, or even a part-time job, is enough to send your dog into boredom or anxiety which may cause bad behaviors.

The suffering in this world that occurs at the hand of humankind and is entirely intentional, is disgusting and dispiriting. I choose not to watch videos or bombard myself with images of suffering. I do what I do because it's the right thing to do--not because I want a reward or fear punishment. Thanks so much.

Hal Herzog’s “ Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat ” (Harper 2011), though fascinating, is ultimately depressing for vegans and animal rights activists. Over at Animal Rights and AntiOppression , we’ve been discussing tactics and sharing our thoughts and experiences about what works and doesn’t work when it comes to advocacy.

Today I’m exploring a couple questions that have been bouncing in my head for a while…I’d love to hear your thoughts…I’m not calling into question animal rights, just the focus of the movement. – The Great Ornithologist Felonious Jive Animal rights. This makes perfect sense.

Animals raised for food suffer miserably. Animals rescued from so-called humane farming establishments have been found in horrific condition. After time in the Marines, I veered strongly away from eating creatures, thinking of their suffering. That’s right, for me—but it may not be for others. I was 4 or 5, and I cringed.

On the traditional position, justification of vegetarianism was in terms of animal welfare, happiness, rights, and so on. In recent years another type of justification has been given: vegetarianism has been justified in terms of human suffering, rights, etc. Don’t be thrown off by the fanciful nature of Martin’s example.

The main concern remains fro stbite to both feet, with the right foot worse than the left. I hope they keep the bird in a safe, reputable wildlife park, free from suffering and able to inspire future generations of avian enthusiasts with its incredible story.
