Join us in telling StarKist, Bumble Bee, and Chicken of the Sea to stop making deceptive claims to consumers about the dolphin-safety and sustainability of their tuna products.

The environmentally devastating practices, including practices that can lead to dolphin mortality, of these companies are not "sustainable" or "dolphin-safe." These claims are deceptive and constitute false advertising to consumers, who rely on the accuracy of such representations to make informed

Because I hate animal crualty in ANY form. I don't think I would retain control if I discovered someone misstreating an animal.

where is the love? we are suppose to protect and love what is this maybe jail time will help the animal abuser think about this. it is cruel and God said be kind to your beast not hurt and abuse.

Humans aren't the only species on the earth, we just act like it.

If only all humans could see that our world would be a better place. I don't understand anyone too stupid to see that.

I have a four year old (large) pomeranian. I sincerely don't know what I would do without him. he is so smart, the most lovable, adorable, loving, happy, playful, owner I have ever had. I was truly blessed when the Lord led me over 150 miles to find my beautiful companion. animals can teach humans so much.....if we would only listen. the most severe penalty imaginable should be given to anyone who abuses animals - on their first offense, not after several offenses when they usually still just get a fine and a slap on the wrist.

Animal abusers must be punished severely, they must be put behind bars and not just make them pay a "fine".... Cruelty must be stopped by all means in this planet.

les animaux plus fidèles que les hommes. A protéger absolument.

I love Animals it is as pure and simple as that!

Tienen los mismos derechos o más que los humanos, al menos ellos no hacen daño gratuitamente o por placer.

lately I found out that money given to the municipalities for the strays to be sterilized and vaccinated are going in high hierarchy pockets. the poor cats and dogs are getting POISON instead!
these people, and all animal abusers must go to jail.

I would do the same to the abusers as the abusers did to the animals I don't think they would like it very much- then I'd lock them up and throw away the key.
