I am so repulsed by bacon culture. Bacon had a mom. You can give up bacon because pigs are friggin awesome.
1⃣ Pigs rank #4 in animal intelligence behind chimpanzees, dolphins and elephants. Piglets learn their names by two to three weeks of age and respond when called.
2⃣ Pigs are very social animals. They form close bonds with each other and other species. Pigs enjoy close contact and will lie close together when resting. Pigs use their grunts to communicate with each other.
3⃣ Pigs are very clean animals. They keep their toilets far from their living or eating area. Even piglets only a few hours old will leave the nest to relieve themselves.
4⃣ Pigs have no sweat glands, so they can’t sweat. They roll around in the mud to cool their skin. The layer of dried mud protects their skin from the ☀ sun. If available, pigs, who are great swimmers, prefer water to mud.
5⃣ Pigs have a great sense of smell. Their powerful but sensitive snout is a highly developed sense organ. Pigs also have a great field of vision, because their eyes are on the sides of their heads.
6⃣ A pig can run a 7 minute mile.
7⃣ Pigs can scream. The scream of a jet engine ✈ taking off measures 113 decibels. The scream of a frightened pig can measure 115 decibels.
Pigs are friends, not food. Let the oink be with you! #vegansofig

for the billionth time: mother cows produce (mother’s-)milk solely for the nourishment of their calves not for you anthropocentric, exploitative, selfish, speciesist assholes. you all should have been weaned off milk a long fucking time ago, but if you think you need it so bad, at least get it from your own mothers, seriously go ask them, instead of destroying families and killing mothers and their babies.
it doesn’t matter if you get it from a cute little mom & pop farm far away from town or from a factory farm, exhausted dairy cows are still sent to slaughter and their calves are either sold for veal or grow up to be the next generation of milk machine slaves.
dairy is slavery. dairy is (female) oppression. dairy is rape. dairy is kidnapping. there is no humane way to commit either of these vile acts. go vegan or die in denial (and with fucked up bones).

Do animals a favor and don’t make kitschy ornaments out of their carcasses and bones. Not only is it incredibly disrespectful and speciesist, but it’s also harmful to the ecosystem to remove the remains of animals that should be breaking down into the soil. As much as I’m sure that…
