Pamela Anderson has just one birthday wish: freedom for Corky, an orca who was captured five decades ago and currently lives in a cramped, chemically treated concrete tank at SeaWorld.

Petition: Undercover Investigation Reveals Cruelty at French Fur Farm
It seems the world is realizing how cruel fur farming really is. Places like Czech Republic and Ireland have both banned fur farming. However, just when you think the world is getting it, an undercover investigation reveals there is still far too much cruelty. Even if there were just one fur farm open and operating, […]
Petition: Stop Using Tigers as Photo Props!
There is no denying that tigers are beautiful creatures. But they are wild animals who should be free to live in the wild. Unfortunately, humans have chosen not to respect these beautiful animals, but instead exploit them. Tigers are taken to be trained for circuses where they are kept in captivity and forced to perform […]
Petition: Ettore Weber’s tigers turned on him
Circus trainers abuse animals until they’re so terrified that they’ll perform ridiculous, demeaning, and often painful tricks.

This, of course, led to eagles and other birds feeding on their carcasses and dying. […]

There are positive ways to put animals and humans in close contact with good intentions for good reason. For instance, there are dog and cat cafés where profits go to helping homeless animals get adopted and helping shelters. However, those are companion animals; they are domesticated. They need the help of humans to survive and […]
Petition: End Wild Animal Ownership in Texas!
Wild animals are not supposed to be kept as pets in our homes. Dogs and cats become family members because they have been domesticated. However, wild animals belong in the wild. They should be with their own species and able to follow their instincts in regards to hunting, playing, mating, etc. It’s terrible for their […]
