Just because we’ve always made animals suffer for our food and entertainment, it doesn’t mean we have to keep doing it. Another way is possible. Choose kindness. #animals?#change?#kindness?#activism?#animalrights

Elephants shouldn’t be deprived of justice simply because they aren’t human,” said Jake Davis, the Nonhuman Rights Project attorney who argued on behalf of five elephants currently held at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. A state court in the US has ruled that captive elephants have no legal right to freedom, during a landmark legal case on behalf of nonhuman animals. The Colorado Supreme Court made the ruling after hearing arguments that examined whether the elephants confined at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado have the right to liberty and therefore should be released to a sanctuary. The case was brought to the courts by Nonhuman Rights Project, a non-profit organization that works to secure legal rights for animals. Lawyers from the group centred their argument on the legal concept of habeas corpus, a centuries-old common law right that protects a citizen from unlawful imprisonment. While every human citizen has a right to habeas corpus, the case hinged on whether this legal right extends to non-human citizens like elephants. In its judgement, the Court said that habeas corpus “only applies to persons, and not to nonhuman animals, no matter how cognitively, psychologically, or socially sophisticated they may be.

The bird flu is leaving a trail of destruction in the animal kingdom. In the US alone, over 112 million birds have been affected, with outbreaks in multiple states. While some birds die from the virus, the majority—both infected and healthy—are killed to contain its spread. Please share to help spread awareness ?? #birdflu #eggs #chickens #hens #factoryfarming
