EARTHLING

Last month I we to KL tower for the SPCA World Animal Day and it was a real memorable ones.

My furkid couldn't join me coz she has a growth on her lips area and the event on that day will screen through your furkid before they could enter. If they find that your furkid is unhealthy, then the furkid will not be allowed to go in.

Let's not talk bout that event first, coz I have something which catches your attention more. The main focus for me was a room with a projector, projecting a movie called EARTHLING.



Earthlings is a 2003 multi-award winning documentary written, produced and directed by Shaun Monson and co-produced by Persia White. The film was narrated by Hollywood actor and animal rights activist Joaquin Phoenix. Earthlings also features an original score by musician and activist Moby.

Introduction


Part 1 - Pet


Part 2 - Food


Part 3 - Clothing


Part 4 - Entertainment


Part 5 - Science


Conclusion


Have you even thought of dogs are used for beer testing? Did you know that there's an elephant which used for circus have ran out of the circus tent and have injured some people. But, why did the elephant acted this way? And what's the ending of the elephant? Find out in this movie. U'll be shocked!

I think the worse part is the Clothing and Experimentation section. I didn't watch that part, my boyfriend advised me to leave the room coz he knows that I couldn't accept that fact, it's just too cruel. He told me how they took off a fox's skin off it's body, skinning it alive. The cruel part experimentation section is using the monkeys to test the helmet. They make the monkey wear the helmet and hit towards the wall to see how much can the helmet take the impact. Imagine u're the monkey...

If some people argue that in earlier times of human kind, we hunt animals for food with spears, isn't that almost the same? YES, PERHAPS, MAYBE. But think again, were human that demanding that time? Were human have such high expectations to have leather shoes and bags? Were our population that big?

Sometimes, we blamed and we killed the animals which have attacked humankind. But, have you thought that we are expanding fast into their forest and land of their territory which they called home and built with our buildings, sky scrappers. Their land are getting smaller, the food is getting less, and we're slowly pushing them towards extinction.

I would strongly recommend you to watch this, I've only included certain parts of the movies taken from youtube. It touches lotsa points and how we human treated them for our needs. I felt disgusted by our human ways of getting our needs. If you need to kill it, kill it fast, instead of killing it slowly and torturing it.

Another Inhumane Act Happened in MALAYSIA

READ THIS. Dog catchers acted cruelly, alleges rescuer

I WAS proud that I've been born in such a "strategic" geographical location which is Malaysia, with no winter coldness, super hot sun, storm, tornado, volcano, and extreme weathers to fear about. BUT, I'm deeply ASHAMED with such cruel act in Malaysia.

These are a few inhumane acts of SOME people in Malaysia which you MUST know of happened not too long ago too.

I was and STILL very outraged by such brainless act of humans. Any healthy human being or at least a 5 years old kid will know that suct brutality. I strongly condemn such heinous act. how many times does such cruelty happen till the government totally put a stop to it. Or at least train their personnel to put themselves at other's shoe. Or maybe these people need to attend more training such as role-play. Perhaps they should beat themself or their beloved children then squeeze through the narrow railings of the gate, see would they feel about it.

There is no justification of such inhumane act. Besides, this dog wears a collar chain. It might wander out and doesn't know how to get home. So, perhaps the role-play i mention above should change, these personnel should look at their beloved being beated up, and force through the narrow railings of gate, then they will know that such act is wrong. If such act to human is wrong, why dun they think that such act to animal is wrong too? Is it because we human think we are better than them so we can act such way?


I really think that they should be fired and punished for such act, and never ever work with any jobs with any possibility to deal with animals again. Who knows what will they do next. There should be a lesson for them and others to learn.

I also suggest that perhaps schools can start implmenting animal friendly activity or program as an extra-curricular to bring awareness, and teach school children what's love and care for animals. Many parents have given the wrong impression to their child that animals are dirty, dogs will bite them and so on. Parents play a big-role on upbringing their child. If the child have the correct impression, they too will not act so violently and when they grow up, they'll teach their children the same and goes on to next generation.

Remember this before your next action. What comes around goes around.
