Why Vegan?

In order to understand the reasons for adopting a vegan lifestyle, one must understand the definition of the word vegan. Webster's defines a vegan as: a vegetarian who omits ALL animal products from the diet.

Wikipedia's definition of veganism is closer: a diet and lifestyle that seeks to exclude the use of animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose. However, this definition still falls short by failing to address the principles of freedom and equality that are the motivating force behind veganism.  At its core, veganism is the assertion that all sentient species have equal inalienable rights to live free from oppression.

Animals Used in Entertainment

Animals are sentient beings who deserve to be treated with love and respect. Unfortunately, animals used for entertainment are seen only for their profitability, not their unique individuality. They don't consent to be locked in tiny cages, stared at in small tanks, isolated in transport trailers, taunted and enraged, or forced to perform unnatural acts such as riding bicycles or jumping through rings of fire.

Sadly, the abuse these animals face behind closed doors is shocking. Many animals used in traveling acts or exhibitions are wild-caught, ripped from their homes and families, and deprived of everything that is natural to them. Others, bred into captivity, are denied of the chance to ever live in a native environment. Remember, minutes of your entertainment means a lifetime of their misery.
