Animal Rights/Expert Profile


Ask A Question

Expertise

I can answer general questions about many animal rights topics, to include animals in entertainment, factory farming, vivesection & research, animals used for clothing, veganism, etc.

Experience in the area

I am a true animal lover. I started on my vegetarian path at the age of 12 and am now vegan today. I believe we have abused our powers over animals and it is time we make some ethical changes. I choose to fight for animals becasue it is easier than just sitting around and watching the abuse continue to happen. I am a volunteer member of several organizations to include; PETA, PCRM, Sea Shepherd, Farm Sanctuary HSUS, MARC, BADL and Grey2K

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I hope to be able to understand why people can be so cruel to animals in order to stop the abuse. I hope to be part of a team that changes the laws for the betterment of the world and I hope to educate and inspire compassionate people so that they may do the right thing and help animals.
