A Mary T. Hoffman Commentary from All-Creatures.org

 

"Joyful Curmudgeon" An oxymoron?
No! I see all the beauty of God's creation and I'm joyful.  At the same time, I see all the suffering and corruption going on in the world, and feel called to help expose and end it so that we may have true peace and compassion.

 


Animal Abuse Increasing – 5 April 2008
By Mary T. Hoffman

If you think that the abuse of animals in laboratories is decreasing – think again! Actually, there is a sharp increase in violations of federal laws by animal research facilities. Dogs, cats, primates, sheep, pigs, rabbits…the suffering is endless; as well as an untold number of birds, rats, and mice who are not considered “animals” by the USDA, and thus are not covered by the Animal Welfare Act. Such hypocrisy!

Violation of the Animal Welfare Act (AWA) by research laboratories in the United States is on the rise, increasing by over 90% in the five years leading up to 2006.
