Central Oregon Partners for Animal Kindness (copak, copak.org) is a grassroots organization created to increase awareness of the plight of animals forced to participate in rodeo and address the false claims that rodeo is not animal abuse.
Important reminder for advocates!
Meme w photo of Jane Goodall looking thoughtfully upward, on right hand side βFARM ANIMALS ARE FAR MORE AWARE AND INTELLIGENT THAN WE EVER IMAGINED... THEY ARE INDIVIDUAL BEINGS IN THEIR OWN RIGHT. AS SUCH, THEY DESERVE OUR RESPECT. AND OUR HELP. WHO WILL PLEAD FOR THEM IF WE ARE SILENT?β Dr. Jane Goodall
Everyone loves a Jane Goodall post

Not surprising- stop exploiting animals!!!!

Public displays of animal abuse should not be promoted- period!!
Not a quick and catchy reel, but factual!
Neuroscientist Gregory Berns makes a case against rodeos, not explicitly, but by highlighting cows' cognitive, emotional, and social traits β and their capacity for fear, stress, and deep attachment.

Are some vegan posts upsetting?
Yes
Does that mean they should be reported for exposing standard practices of the slaughter industry?
NO
If you donβt have the fortitude to face uncomfortable truths, fine, MUTE & MOVE ON. Donβt add to the suffering of animals by silencing those who speak for them

Heartbreaking
Yes, thank you! We did that two years ago and the hospital said they hadnβt seen any letters!
Not surprising! How do we get people to care?
We agree! Unfortunately, we don't have any other hospitals in our area! π
Why animal advocacy still matters amid current events.

Opposes animal testing, but then promotes eating animal flesh and fluid.
Don't believe rodeo propaganda! Rodeos are animal abuse!
Always welcome!
Yes, please!!
So heartbreaking.
βBut we love our animals and treat them better than you treat your pets!β We hear this ALL the time from rodeo people and ranchers.
Yep
Heartbreaking

All rodeos are animal abuse!
Hate this!!
Rodeo is animal abuse!!
If this were done to your dog, it would be a crime.
Time to stop looking the other way and start standing up for animals used and abused in rodeo.
