The Handmaid’s Tale resonates with women who can relate to being seen as nothing more than their bodies. Cows imprisoned on dairy farms are valued only for their biology, just like the handmaids in the Republic of Gilead. These cows and their daughters endure a lifetime of trauma and misery, while their sons—who are considered worthless to the dairy industry—are often sold for veal.
If cows imprisoned on dairy farms could speak, they’d beg, “Get me out of here,” just like Osborne in The Handmaid’s Tale. You can help these cows and help end the violence, reproductive control, and rape of female animals. Text HANDMAID to 73822 to get your FREE Vegan Starter Kit now.*

Worldwide outrage has erupted after photos showing an American trophy hunter posing with the body of an elderly male giraffe recently went viral. The senseless slaughter of this gentle giant is just one instance of many where trophy hunters have been granted permission to target these creatures, even though conservationists warn that there are now less than 100,000 giraffes remaining worldwide. We must use the attention drawn by this story to call for an immediate end to all giraffe trophy hunting in South Africa.The American trophy hunter, 37-year-old Tess Thompson Talley from Kentucky, originally posted the photographs of her standing next to the slain giraffe on her Twitter page last year. Recently, they were discovered and retweeted by AfricaDigest, which gave the troubling images widespread attention and prompted a number of public figures to condemn Talley for bragging about killing this magnificent, innocent creature.
Despite this widespread outcry, it remains legal to hunt giraffes in South African game parks as long as prepaid arrangements with park officials are made. Yet with their dwindling numbers, it is very possible that trophy hunting could threaten this iconic species with extinction. Sign the petition to put an end to the pay-to-hunt practice of giraffe hunting in South Africa before it is too late.
