Letter to the President: save the Rabbits!

IMAGE |Wang Jinhai & He Zhiliang, Guangdong Industry Technical College, China

Rabbits are among the most abused animals in the world. Eaten, tested, skinned…They are too kind for this world.

Therefore, I’m asking you to take action for them, whenever you can, in every way you can. When I discuss with horrible people wearing rabbits, they usually reply, “oh well, I eat them”. Trust me, I feel the impulse to skin them!

I am also asking to send a letter to the Chinese President.   Below  is a sample letter, naturally you can send your personal letter if you prefer, though.

SAMPLE MESSAGE

Your Excellency:

On this occasion at the start of the Chinese New Year, permit me to bring the plight of rabbits and other species of animals on Chinese fur farms.

For the millions of individual rabbits and other animals suffering on Chinese fur farms, will this Year of the Rabbit prove any differently?  Will it bring them happiness, freedom, good health, success, and all the things which we humans want for ourselves and our families?

These gentle animals spend nearly their entire lives crammed in filthy wire cages that are so small that the animals are often unable to move more than a few tiny steps. They are born and raised to die at the hands of workers who kill them using methods — such as neck-breaking, suffocation, poisoning, and electrocution — that keep the rabbits’ skin intact so that it can be sold. The skin of rabbits who do not die instantly is often ripped from their bodies while they are still conscious.

Recently, when I read that China had forbidden circus acts that exploit animals, I was delighted.  Indeed, China has progressed enormously in various fields including the ethical treatment of animals, which means no use of them.

It is undeniable that cruelty towards helpless  non-human sentient animals is vile, cowardly, and downright immoral.  Stronger creatures such as humans ought to exercise clemency and gentleness towards weaker creatures.  I am certain that such ideals are enshrined in the grandeur of China’s philosophic heritage by way of Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism.

Therefore, during this Year of the Rabbit, I hope that China will make even greater progress towards banning cruel and inhumane practices involving the torture and painful death of millions of defenseless animals.

Respectfully,

Name, Surname
