!!! FEATURED ANIMALS !!!

!!! THE SPIDER !!!
JUST LOOK AT THAT AMAZING FACE - and IT'S LOOKING AT YOU !!!
Spiders are beneficial to humans and ecosystems by providing natural pest control, reducing the spread of disease, serving as a food source for other animals, and acting as a source of inspiration for medical and technological advancements through their silk and venom. They are vital predators that help control populations of insects like mosquitoes, flies, and roaches, which can carry harmful diseases.

11.20.24 Update

Our website was attacked by malware on October 4, 2024 and totally ruined and gone. Thank God a developer at Register was able to slowly put the site back together and it is back… and it now has the best extra security and backed up after every change to it. Thank you for your kind patience during this harrowing time. We will not let anything distract us from our mission to end all animal cruelty.

3.15.23

So grateful things are finally moving along slowly, but surely…

1.1.23

Wishing everyone the best New Year with great health… and all of us, together, changing animal cruelty in our country… 21 Daytime and Late Night Talk Shows starting in the spring… and will be posted on the Media Page…

6.29.22 Turning a Blind Eye.

I have had so many people write me and say they want to help but they can not look at the cruelty… and I understand that… as my introduction says my sister and I watched “I Am An Animals” back in XXXX and could not speak after it we were so upset… but that was a big reason for starting the animal charity to get rid of ALL ANIMAL CRUELTY… not just parts of it…

6.23.22 - ALL HUMANS WERE TOTAL VEGANS UNTIL FIRE DISCOVERED.

I’ve been doing a lot of work and research the past months when humans actually started cooking meat for food and will post it when I get it all organized. Can you believe we were ALL vegan until 300,000 – 400,000 thousand years ago… just like cows, pigs, elephants, etc. And eating meat has devastated our health, especially now with the drugs and harmones they are injected full of to grow fast… not to mention how animals are horrendously treated in Factory Farming…

6.17.22 - 25 MILLION FRIENDS.

Today, June 17, 2022, we reached 25 MILLION FRIENDS around the country in every county of each 50 states… What a milestone and thank you from the bottom of my heart to have this huge number of humans fighting animal cruelty… and we’ve only just begun…

!!! THE OPOSSUM - POSSUM !!!
America's Only Marsupial !!!
The miracle animal Opossum, and most often called Possum. America's only marsupial that eats all the junk we drop and discard on the ground. They also eat roadkill and that's why so many are killed on the roads when car lights temporarily blind them. PLEASE be careful and don't hurt them. Their tiny little babies are in their pouch until they crawl out and ride on mama's back. ADORABLE !!!
Marsupial - a mammal born incompletely developed and are carried and suckled in a pouch on the mother's belly.

!!! THE ROACH !!!
In nature, cockroaches are beneficial as they act as decomposers, recycling dead organic matter into nutrients for the soil. They also serve as a food source for other animals, like birds, lizards, and frogs, and some species have been used in traditional medicine. However, most species that enter human homes are considered pests because they carry diseases and can contaminate food.
--------------------
!!! THE TERMITE !!!
 Yes, termites have a good quality in nature, acting as decomposers that recycle dead plant material and return nutrients to the soil, and aerating the soil through their tunnels. However, this "good" quality in the environment becomes a significant "bad" quality when they infest homes and cause billions of dollars in damage to structures.
--------------------
!!! THE MOUSE !!!
Please Do Not Use Glue Traps On These Amazing Sentient Animals.
Buy an inexpensive trap and release them outdoors. There is actually much more to these tiny creatures than meets the eye. Mice contribute a great deal to the environment and ecosystem, from providing larger animals with prey to scattering seeds over larger areas so new vegetation has the opportunity to grow.
--------------------
 !!! THE TICK !!!
Ticks serve the ecosystem by acting as a food source for other animals, regulating animal populations by preying on the weak or sick, and serving as an indicator of overall ecosystem health. While they transmit diseases that can negatively impact humans and animals, their role in the food chain and as population controllers is vital for ecological balance.

!!! THE MOSQUITO !!!
Mosquitoes are small, flying insects belonging to the order Diptera, characterized by a slender body, one pair of wings, and three pairs of legs. While both males and females feed on nectar, only females drink blood to get the protein needed to produce eggs, which is why they are responsible for the itchy bites and for transmitting diseases. The mosquito life cycle consists of four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult, with the first three taking place in or near water. They play a role in the ecosystem as a food source for other animals
--------------------
!!! THE FLY !!!
Flies are a diverse group of insects belonging to the order Diptera, characterized by having a single pair of wings. The term can also refer to other insects like mayflies or to the play The Flies by Jean-Paul Sartre. A fly's larva is commonly called a maggot. Flies are major pollinators, second only to the bees and their Hymenopteran relatives. Flies may have been among the evolutionarily earliest pollinators.
--------------------
!!! The Dragonfly !!!
A single dragonfly can guard an entire yard. With the right plants around, they will hover and hunt nonstop, cutting down mosquitoes in the simplest, most natural way. One tiny predator doing what chemicals cannot.
--------------------
!!! The Hyena !!!
Hyenas live in groups called clans, and in some clans, females are the leaders. They are strong, skilled hunters with powerful jaws that can crush bones, and they use unique sounds like a "laugh" to communicate. There are three types of hyenas: spotted, brown, and striped

Meet the Canadian Researcher Determined to Take the Animals Out of Lab Testing

Advances in biotechnology may replicate human biology better than animal models, in many cases
Lab animals have been an essential part of life-altering and lifesaving scientific research and discovery. But a growing number of scientists are calling for an end to their use, and pushing for new methods that can better replicate human biology instead.

How Many Animals Are Killed for Food Every Day?

Dec. 17, 2021, Grace Hussain
Every second the counter ticks and several thousand more animals have lost their lives.
The Animal Kill Clock serves as an eerie reminder of the lives and possibilities that are lost with every moment that passes. All around the world animals are dying in order to feed people.

Why (and How, Exactly) Did Early Humans Start Cooking?

Dec 17, 2019, Guy Crosby
Clearly, the controlled use of fire to cook food was an extremely important element in the biological and social evolution of early humans, whether it started 400,000 or 2 million years ago.
The lack of physical evidence suggests early humans did little to modify the control and use of fire for cooking for hundreds of thousands of years, which is quite surprising, given that they developed fairly elaborate tools for hunting during this time, as well as creating some of the first examples of cave art about 64,000 years ago.

The Ten Worst Companies For Animals

Dec 17, 2019, Guy Crosby
Many investors want to ensure they put their money in companies that share their values or, at a minimum, don’t conduct activities that are against their values. Analyzing companies for investment return is relatively straightforward, with various objective measures to consider: past returns, dividend rate, price to earnings ratio, etc. But ensuring companies are aligned with your values isn’t as straightforward. How can you determine what investments to avoid if you want to make the world a better place? This is an extremely complex question, and one that is inherently subjective. How do you compare a company that produces and promotes cigarettes to one that torments and slaughters hundreds of millions of animals? How would you rank a company that releases toxic sludge in rivers versus a company that boils macaque monkeys alive? (Charles River Labs, one of the companies on our Ten Worst list below, does this.) All of us here at Cruelty Free Investing want to avoid investing in companies that exploit animals. When it comes to listing the ten worst companies, we have chosen those we would be most embarrassed to be associated with, because of the magnitude of the suffering they cause. Your personal list may differ, of course. Our list will give you a sense of our top-line values, which we align with our own personal investing. Read more…

Chickens

Jan 25, 2023
The United States raises and slaughters almost 10 times more birds than any other type of animal. Approximately 9 billion chickens are killed for their meat every year, while another 300 million chickens are used in egg production. All birds—meat chickens, egg-laying hens, turkeys, ducks, geese and others—are excluded from all federal animal protection laws. By sheer number, these are the animals most urgently in need of protection. The ASPCA is working actively with companies that buy or raise chickens to encourage the adoption of higher-welfare practices. Read more…

Pigs

Jan 25, 2023
pig
The U.S. raises around 120 million pigs for food each year, the vast majority [PDF] of whom are raised in barren crates or pens at industrial-scale facilities without fresh air or sunlight. They live on hard, slatted floors that do not accommodate their natural urge to root. Ammonia fumes rise to dangerous, uncomfortable levels due to high concentrations of waste. ASPCA is working actively with companies that buy pork or raise pigs to encourage the adoption of higher-welfare practices. Read more…

Cattle

Jan 25, 2023

Turkeys

Jan 25, 2023
Approximately 240 million turkeys [PDF] are raised for meat in the U.S. annually. Like chickens, turkeys suffer from growth-related lameness and are housed in groups on the floors of long sheds where they are denied fresh air, sunshine and pasture. Turkeys also develop abnormal behaviors in these environments, which can result in cannibalism.The ASPCA is working actively with companies that raise turkeys or buy turkey to encourage the adoption of higher-welfare practices.

Aquaculture

Jan 25, 2023
There is a common misconception that fish and other aquatic vertebrates do not feel pain; however, studies demonstrate that they are sentient and capable of both fear and suffering [PDF]. Aquaculture—the farming of fish and other aquatic species—is one of the fastest-growing areas of food production, surpassing global beef production. About half of all consumed fish—namely salmon, tuna, cod, trout and halibut—are raised in artificial environments, as opposed to being wild-caught, creating a number of welfare concerns. Read more…

The Best & Worst Countries for Animal Welfare Are Difficult to Measure

Nov 20, 2024
Farmers in Ethiopia training cows to walk in groups.

The general concept of animal welfare may seem fairly straightforward. But efforts to measure animal welfare, however, are far more complicated. Attempting to identify the best and worst countries for animal welfare is no easy task, but a close look at the work of several organizations advocating for animal rights gives us an idea of which places treat animals the best — and the worst.

With so much chaos in the world right now, let's join together
in our country and end something we can accomplish. We can do this.

End all animal cruelty and then show the world how we did it.

We humans will no longer turn a blind eye to their suffering.
