Fellow animal lovers: Did you know that over 200 movies, TV series, and reality TV shows involve REAL animal violence?
This means, animals actually killed and/or tortured, NOT simulated abuse (using animatronics or CGI, for example). Works with fake animal abuse, where no animal was harmed in the making, are approved by the American Humane Association. But what if their logo does not appear in the film's end credits?
In those works, ranging from well-known to obscure films, both old and newer, as well as TV series and reality shows, animals of any kind (horses, pigs, cows, dogs, cats, birds, fishes...) get slaughtered, beaten, hunted, tortured, eaten alive, abused, and killed on-screen, in revolting scenes APPOSITELY MADE FOR THE MOVIE.
Isn't this unforgivable and appalling? Don't we all want to enjoy a good movie, without worrying about animals being actually harmed in it? Shouldn't killing animals "for the sake of art" be banned as the criminal act it is?
If you love animals, please, pledge to boycott every movie or TV show that involves unsimulated animal abuse; do not support any work from the directors, producers and networks involved in the approval of actual animal violence; ask everyone you know to do the same. Every person with a conscience should know about what happens behind the scenes. Say NO to animals actually killed in movies!
A few titles include: Movies Old Boy, The Hobbit, Apocalypse Now, and Cannibal Holocaust, TV series "Luck", and Bear Gryll's reality shows "Worst-Case Scenario" and "Man VS Wild".
