At In Behalf of Animals is about not only learning how to be an advocate for animals, it's about the importance of becoming an advocate for animals. Without our voices, without a small amount of our time each day, each week, animals around the world will continue to suffer for human gain.
Look, we know one thing is true. It's wrong. Animals can think, feel emotions, feel pain, they don't want to live their entire lives (or any portion of it) in prison and they don't want to die.
In Episode 3 of Season 1 my conversation with Jodie Wiederkehr turned to two individual animals that need our help now. Below are ways to take action today. The first two are Facebook links, if you are not on Facebook, email me at nicolearciello@gmail.com and I will send you the entire action. The last is a Change.org petition. I encourage everyone to take 10 minutes today or this weekend to be a voice for Spur and Rocky. And think about how if we do nothing, nothing will change for them.
