Rostock Animal Save & Schwerin Animal Save held a vigil on February 15 to protest the "Slaughter Fest," which they describe as "the annual slaughter festival takes place at the district agricultural museum in the village of Mecklenburg. There, an already slaughtered pig is scalded in front of hundreds of people - including many children - the bristles are removed, the body is gutted, cut in half and then examined by a veterinarian. The whole process is moderated in a 'relaxed, amusing way' by the master butcher himself."

Tarragona Animal Save report from their February 12 vigil: "Today, after months of visiting this slaughterhouse, we were able to stop a truck for the first time. We have seen babies a few months old about to be killed. The faces of these babies are the faces of the lamb that you so calmly eat. Lives taken by whim, tradition and comfort. We will never forget you, little ones."

So that no sentient being is considered an object or food again, let us pronounce without hesitation our antispeciesist words, always. For equity between species.
