Every Chicken, Cow, Fish and Frog: Animal Rights Haiku - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

All life is precious; thus proclaimed Albert Schweitzer, the 20th century humanitarian. Yet, humans around the globe continue to daily mistreat and murder countless numbers of animals, fish, fowl and insects with reckless abandon. This must come to an end. Collectively, the contributors in this anthology, from Croatia to Indonesia, speak out poetically and passionately on behalf of ending nonhuman suffering. Join them in bringing more compassion, kindness and appreciation to our fundamental relationship with nonhuman beings, who deserve to live free of fear, enslavement, torture, violence and slaughter. Perhaps a newfound reverence for all life will become your lasting message to the world, just as Mahatma Gandhi's embodiment of nonviolence became his. crimson dusk-- the cowbells tinkling along their last journey --Shrikaanth Krishnamurti a caged chimpanzee injected with hepatitis signs hello --Allan Burns "Every Chicken, Cow, Fish, and Frog is a special compilation tribute to animals.
