As Venus climbed out of the tank her first thought was to share what she’d found with Adi and Jean and tell them her plan.  Her subsequent thoughts were not so pleasant.

“Ok, well,” Carolyn smiled, “while we’re up here I want to show you the top of the tank where the divers, and the fish, go in.”

Venus could see and hear William’s distress.  She could only imagine the misery he went through every time he was transported from Scotland to the south coast and back again.  But she couldn’t help him.  Carolyn was soon ushering them on.

If you were the kind of person who was brought up to eat meat and dairy but had an innate love and sympathy for animals, you might start to worry that raising them and killing them for food might hurt them.  You might seek advice, asking – “is it done humanely?” or “do they suffer?”

If you asked a butcher or a farmer those questions and he told you – “oh no, don’t worry, they don’t suffer,” or “no, no, no, it’s all done very humanely” or “there are very strict rules in this country to ensure that there’s nothing cruel about it”, then you might hesitate to believe him, knowing that he has a vested interest in keeping you eating meat and therefore a motivation to deceive you on this point.

Gracias a ellas, ahora los elefantes tienen las piernas, la espalda y el cuello cubiertos de cálidos tejidos de colores. De este modo, serán capaces de lidiar con el frío.

Antes de llegar al centro, estos elefantes habían estado en cautiverio ilegal, habían sido traficados por la mafia, explotados en circos y utilizados para la mendicidad. Todo ello, comportó que fueran sometidos a golpes y a un trato de crueldad extrema. Unas experiencias que les…

Sometimes I wonder why I bother.

Oftentimes it all seems hopeless and not in the slightest worthwhile.

Sometimes I want to give up.

Oftentimes I pass the lady in the street shuffling on her hands with the stumps of her thighs dragging in the dust behind and I want to cry in frustration.

Sometimes I get angry, emotions boiling up inside me at the injustices.
