It just depends your definition of animal cruelty. Although most essential amino acids come from our meat group, there is still a way to get those amino even if you don't eat meat. So if stopping animal cruelty is your number one priority, GO VEGAN!

Abandoning Animals

Another form of animal cruelty is abandoning animals. Often animals are left abandoned and are rounded up and euthanized as there is not enough money or workers to keep them alive . Sometimes they are sent to no kill shelter but even then they live in cages for weeks, months and even years. In Winnipeg you can help to stop the killing of dogs,cats and bunnies by donating to your local humane society so they can buy food as well as donating blankets so the animals can keep warm through the winter as well as so they do not have to sleep on the hard ground. The abandoning of animals is a form of animal cruelty! If you want to help give these animals a home ADOPT TODAY!


Blackfish

One of the new documentaries coming out is called blackfish. Blackfish is about a whale called Tilikum who was kept at sea world and ate a trainer one day. This movie talks about how keeping animals in things like amusement parks can make them go crazy. In the trailer a new reporter makes a statement saying "if you were kept in a bathtub for 25 years would you go crazy?" I think this documentary should be a just see because it will open peoples mind to the consequences of keeping animals like that add animal cruelty. Here is the link for the trailer or you can look up blackfish trailer.

Animal cruelty: animal testing

Animal testing is a huge part of animal cruelty. It hurts millions of animals each year. It's somthing that needs to stop. Here's a couple facts about animal testing;

95% of animals used are rodents

chemicals are dropped into animals eyes to see of they cause a reaction. 

Drugs have to be tested on animals but most of the time the results in animals are different then the results In humans. So we spend all this money on tees test that have a good chance that they may not work.
