| Respect for Fish Day August 1, 2021 Do you care about animals in labs? Or animals used for food? Do you care about the environment? Then you should know about Respect for Fish Day! Fish are exploited in many ways and Respect for Fish Day is a great time to educate ourselves and others about these amazing animals. - Do you know?
- Fish are intelligent, sentient beings who can feel pain and suffer.
- There are millions of fish used in chemical and environmental testing.
- Aquaculture is the fish equivalent of factory farms for cows and pigs.
- The FDA approved the sale of genetically engineered salmon for food, ignoring animal welfare and environmental concerns voiced by the public.
Fish belong in oceans, lakes, rivers, and streams, not in a lab or on a dinner plate. Their lives are no less important than other animals humans consider to be cuddly and cute. Tell others why you care and respect fish by forwarding this email or sharing on social media! |
