Farm animals, like dairy cows - who by nature are vegans - are routinely force-fed fish to increase their weight and milk production.
Sharon Gannon
Lions and other carnivorous animals do a lot of things besides eat meat. They live outdoors, not in houses they don't wear clothes or drive around in cars they usually sleep for many hours after eating a meal. Why cite just one of the many things that they do and argue that we should imitate them? This doesn't make much sense.
Sharon Gannon
To live and breathe with an exclusive focus on one's small self, disconnected from the whole, is the definition of egotism.
Sharon Gannon
I'm totally into veganism and animal rights, but I'm not into being an angry and judgmental activist.
