"I am in favour of animal rights as well as human rights. That is the way of a whole human being."

The morality of a nation can be judged by the way society treats its animals.
~~ Mahatma Ghandi
Only if we care will we help. Only if we help shall all be saved.
~ Dr. Jane Goodall UN Award Ceremony 4/16/02Human beings are currently causing the greatest mass extinction of species since the extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. If present trends continue one half of all species of life on earth will be extinct in 100 years Source
~~ Professor David Ulansey"Defenders of the short-sighted men who in their greed and selfishness will, if permitted, rob our contry of half its charm by their reckless extermination of all useful and beautiful wild things sometimes seek to champion them by saying 'the game belongs to the people.' So it does; and not merely to the people now alive, but to the unborn people. The 'greatest good for the greatest number' applies to the number within the womb of time, compared to which those now alive form but an insignificant fraction. Our duty to the whole, including the unborn generations, bids us restrain an unprincipled present-day minority from wasting the heritage of these unborn generations. The movement for the conservation of wild life and the larger movement for the conservation of all our natural resources are essentially democratic in spirit, purpose, and method."
