What started out as a competition in 1800s has morphed into a culture which is riddled with cruelty & pain for its #animals. #Rodeo has nothing in common with actual ranching, yet it promotes itself as such. #RodeoIsNotRanching #actionforanimals

Inexcusable!

🚨🚨Another horse Dead at Churchill!

3-year-old Rio Moon is now the 8th kill at this hallowed track in a little over two weeks. But remember, Churchill averages 25 kills annually...

Wild cow milking banned at Rowell Ranch rodeo!

In the words of our Eric Mills (quoted below): “To abuse #animals for fun and games, it’s just morally not acceptable. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.”

Next up: Livermore Rodeo!

People who force animals into "sPoRTs" are the worst.

[Action for Animals - Oakland CA @EricMillsAFA]

Deadline for introduction of new bills is February 18, 2022.

As The Lorax says, "If somebody like YOU doesn't care a whole awful lot, then nothing is going to get better. It's not."

The decision, "was hastened by the distressing scenes at the Tokyo Olympics when a #horse was punched by a German coach after it refused to jump a fence."

A terrible loss. Supervisor Chan was a great advocate for women's and children's issues, as well as a major advocate for animals. She will be sorely missed.
