Animals have been killed by human beings either for pleasure or for consumption by people for a long period. They have been tolerating all forms of violence and still people do not understand their pain and emotions. They continue cooking them, eating them and using them as handbags, footwear and many other fashionable items.
Recently, an incident where a pregnant elephant got killed due to the consumption of pineapple filled with crackers shows how inhuman we have become. This is not the first time an elephant has been killed in Kerala. The state has huge number of elephants and many of them are killed every year for obtaining ivory tusks.
People are appealing and signing petitions for stricter rules for killing animals. I would like to ask how many of them are those who do not kill or eat animals or use animal products in some form or other. Only strict rules and regulations will not help in protecting the animals. People need to be self-aware about it and stop consuming animals from today itself.
The companies which use animal skin for making products should be banned all over the world. People should also read the label of goods before buying them from the market. The thing is that people post, appeal and shout for a few days and then forget the incident as if nothing has happened. If this is the way our society keeps on functioning, one day will be such that there will be no animals left on the planet.
I appeal to all the people to stop all kinds of violence on animals whether it is eating them or using animal made products. Only animal organizations cannot help you. You have to understand that the animals you are hurting also have a family and they also want to goo home. Nobody wants to get killed only for pleasure.
