Famed anthropologist Margaret Mead once said, "Never
doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the

have been taken to heart by many animal rights activists who believe that
they can have a very real impact on the way society treats animals.
Individuals of all ages and from all walks of life are taking on
multi-million-dollar industries that abuse and exploit animals and raising
awareness about animal rights issues.
