Over-weight people should not be allowed to ride donkeys or horses. This is animal cruelty and must be stopped
#AnimalCruelty

[Rep. Nancy Mace @RepNancyMace]

Today is World Animal Day. We love our animals, and we won't stop fighting for them.

They aren't lab equipment, and they aren't disposable. We've made protecting them a priority during our time in Congress:

✅ The PUPPS Act ends the breeding of dogs for research and shuts down the pipeline supplying them to taxpayer-funded labs.

✅ Violet's Law, passed in the House-passed Farm Bill, requires federal labs to offer retirement and adoption to animals instead of euthanasia once research ends.

✅ The PAAW Act prohibits the National Institutes of Health from conducting or funding research causing the most severe levels of pain or distress to dogs and cats.

Man's best friend belongs in a loving home, not a lab. We'll keep fighting to protect the voiceless.

Should animal cruelty be on people's criminal records?

If someone is cruel to animals and gets arrested for it, should it be taken as seriously as other crimes?

@JungleAlex13227 What compelled them to sit on the turtle? They’re awful people and they need to learn their lesson.

@JungleAlex13227 Prison. They know better.

Tourists face legal action after being filmed riding a nesting sea turtle in Oman. What do you think? Do they deserve prison for this?

Un fotografo in Australia racconta:

È sempre devastante ritrovare un koala deceduto, ma è stato ancora più straziante assistere al koala maschio che piange, stringe e abbraccia la sua compagna deceduta.
PER CHI ANCORA DUBITA DEI LORO SENTIMENTI. 💔

The "Final Goodbye" - the viral photo capture the two captive Asian elephants stretching their trunks toward each other from separate transport trucks, one final time before being separated forever....

In December 2016, a photograph taken on an Indian highway captured a moment that moved people worldwide. Freelance writer Sowmya Vidyadhar shared the image online, highlighting a moment of connection before both animals entered a lifetime of human service.

This interaction shows that animals experience deep emotional responses.

Elephants live in close family groups led by older females, forming lifelong bonds.

They raise calves together, share food, and support each other during times of distress.

"Elephants have a remarkable capacity for empathy," notes animal behavior researcher Dr. Ananya Rao.

"They remember family members for decades, mourn their dead, and show clear sadness when losing a companion. When taken from their herds, they experience significant grief."

The highway photograph illustrates the impact of captivity.

As traffic passed, the elephants focused entirely on each other, using their trunks to comfort one another.

"You could hear them making soft rumbling sounds. It was clear they did not want to separate."

For decades, elephants have been captured for work in temples, tourism, and heavy labor. While valued for their physical strength, the emotional strain of separation is often overlooked.

Being removed from a herd leads to long-term isolation.

Looking at that photograph, we are left to reflect on how we interact with the natural world. By recognizing animal emotions, we can support better protection and freedom for future generations of elephants.

This heartbreaking farewell is not an isolated incident; it is the everyday reality of an industry that treats living, feeling beings as mere tools for human profit.

Until we refuse to support businesses that exploit wild animals, we remain complicit in their suffering.

Real compassion means speaking up against animal abuse and demanding that these emotional, intelligent creatures be allowed to live free in the wild where they belong.

HeeHaw wasn’t “just a donkey.”

Bottle-raised baby. Georgia farm. Officers walked onto his pasture at night looking for a missing girl.

He came over to say hello.

They tased him.
Then they shot him.

The girl was found safe.
HeeHaw wasn’t.

That should’ve been the end of it.

It wasn’t.

In 2 weeks:
• ~$100K raised for his family
• His face on screens in Times Square + Dubai
• Petition past 6K
• Protest
• This week: $1M demand to the city + lawsuit against the officer

They still want the body-cam footage.

And yes — crypto showed up.

$HeeHaw launched as a memorial token.
Fees went to the farm.
A community that usually only talks charts actually moved real money and real attention.

A token isn’t justice.
But it is a megaphone.

Don’t let this fade.
Demand the footage.
Don’t let them bury a little donkey who died in his own field.

n April 2026, another 46 rescued macaques were released onto a protected Indonesian island after rehabilitation, giving them their first real chance to live freely again. They had once been forced to perform for tourists and shoppers.

I despair for the human race when this exploitation & cruelty is considered entertainment
