  • Esther the Wonder Pig is changing hearts. A Canadian couple adopted a rescued "mini pig" in 2012, but she grew to be 650 pounds. The rescued farm animal now lives on a sanctuary called The Happily Ever Esther Farm Sanctuary.
    Her dads, Steve and Derek went vegan after adopting her. The sanctuary's mission is to give neglected and abused farm animals a loving home.

      "All animals deserve to be loved and cared for"
      You are correct and I completely agree with you. We humans and non-human animals are all Earthlings, this planet is big enough for all of us to live on it together.

    Farmers who say they love their animal and then butcher them are full of it. There are a few here on TH-cam that I quit following because of showing how they were harvesting their animals. All of their followers watched these animal grow up and started to care for them and then one day there’s a video of their body parts on a table. Couldn’t do it anymore. I went from vegetarian to vegan overnight.

    The video that made me vegan was one about Esther and how mother pigs are barred to the concrete ground, not being able to get up, feeding her babies and they can not even move their heads to look at their babies. And that cycle continues over and over til the mother dies. Sick.

      @Huy Taing I don't think that's true but even if it was I don't care because I would be so mentally I'll eating meat and dairy knowing the horrific abuse that goes on in farming practises... I would be much sicker than not eating it could ever make me. And anyways if what u say is true how do you explain lifelong vegans living healthy to an old age? Cheers.

    I was vegetarian before my husband's prostate cancer surgery. I went Vegan after that and have learned so many reasons why this is the best way to eat. My husband would have likely not had cancer if he had eaten the once a week meat meal I thought I needed. He is still transitioning, but I honestly don't miss meat. And I love all the critters and really and glad I stopped doing meat.

    I really don’t care about animals I don’t have a connection with. I would eat a dog if I was curious. I wouldn’t eat MY dogs though. I would feel pity if I see a dying animal, but I won’t be sad. I won’t feel a feeling of loss. Fuck I would eat a person if I wanted to know what it tasted like. Owning a pet would make us harder to eat some products, as it would remind you of your pet.
    So I guess it’s understandable for this couple to be vegan.

    The ability to be a vegan is a first world privilege.
