In a world where we (Humans) take every living thing for granted and treating them with no respect and regards of their existence. From the slaughter houses, black market trades, animal testing to production of products, man have abused and raped everything in their path."Man is the only species known to kill its kind, not for food like animals to survive but for other means."
Watching this eye opening documentary that shows the truth about these monstrosities: Earthlings
