Popular Post Guderian Posted July 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2020 I'd like to know why PETA have never done anything to stop the cruel and inhumane halal slaughter of animals?

worrab Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 6 hours ago, MobileContent said: You are spot on. I have seen in the South how the monkeys are trained from a small age onward's and it doesn't looks very good and sure is cruel but they are now mainly used for tourist attractions. Where I live in Bang Saphan Noi district this is not the case. The monkeys here are well treated and the young ones are actually taught by their adults as to what to do. We have loads and loads of them around here all working with their owners for a living and not as tourist attractions. When the monkeys are working they are given a break every hour or else they will just stop! Also if they are abused they will not think twice about attacking. This information you can get from the owners when you see them working and talk to them as I have often done. And do not forget that the monkey is the animal that is giving the owner and family a living so it is in their interest to look after them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slvlsa Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I have delt with PETA on several occasion. I have march with the Rev. Jessy Jackson against there lies fafe pictures them destroying the lively of may business. They have been invited to inspect, visit greyhound kennels only to refuse and spread more lies to brainwash people that ALL animals are being mistrated. Whether it be dairy farmers to fish they will stop at nothing and could care less about animals. There only purpose is to collect a fat paycheck off of your donations. PETa should be treated as a very hostiak group. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyJ Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 PETA is opposed to all animal slavery including bee keeping and silkworms. I can't imagine in what Universe they accept pigs sniffing for truffles. I found a PETA article raving about truffles but didn't see anything about them accepting the use of pigs to find them. As for the other animal abuses cited, of course PETA is opposed to all of those and has actively campaigned against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeniusFarang Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) Leave it up to arrogant and uneducated (have never left their liberal bubble) PETA, to sound completely moronic and culturally ignorant. One of the biggest reasons I left California - these garbage human beings are everywhere (especially in the high density cities). They get an overpriced paper that they got conned into paying for and then it gives them a superficial boost in false confidence on top of an already fragile ego. I would know unfortunately, I received my BA from Sacramento State University - most Universities churn out morons nowadays. This is a perfect example of something the alumni from most Universities in the liberal cities would have their finger prints all over.

When their lines snap they don't run off into the wild but need to be lured back (some with ease, some requiring a bit more effort). It's mostly rope. These domesticated moneys would survive for long in the wild. Employing monkeys captured in the wild is illegal and their are checks by the authorities. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opposite is true for monkeys collecting coconuts. Wake up, Attawich. <deleted>. How do you know monkeys don't enjoy collecting coconuts but pigs enjoy looing for truffles? I'm sure pigs would be far happier rolling aroud in mud. I don't expect any better response for a typical thai-based farang moaner of course.

Now that's abuse. Give 'em some swill - they don't know price of truffles. Giving a pig a truffle would be like "casting pearls truffles before swine".

They promote a vegan lifestyle, which should tell you a lot. With all the slaughterhouses in the USA, you'd think PETA would be busy over there...yet, they have time to come to Thailand and harass the Thais about monkey picking coconuts.

RobU Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Follow the money. PETAi s a US organisation The US is currently engaged in a trade war with the far East under Donald Trump's protectionist policy. Florida produces Coconut milk Thai coconut milk is regarded as better quality than Florida and is cheaper to produce The UK wants to be a trading partner with the US post Brexit As they say in the US 'Do the Math' I would suppose that much of the badmouthing of Thai culture on this forum is done by those who who do not or are not allowed to live in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are telling us that if your remove the monkey's chains from around their necks they will not run away? If you keep them in a cage and open the door they will just stay in there are not escape? How about if I fasten a chai around your neck for the rest of your life and not let you have any freedom.

Yes, that is exactly what I tell. They do not escape, and they even do not try or intend it. They stay at the same spot as when they are locked. Till we approach them. Then they will move away. So that is the moment we need to catch them. The monkeys are not wild animals. They are bred in captivity (that is also required by Thai law) And also the parents from these monkeys must be bred. All is registered, monkeys have a chip, and there are regularly checks. Maybe an interesting read for you: https://www.firstschoolformonkeys.com/abused-monkeys/ I think most people are tight with a chain around their neck. And we know most people do also not escape. So not much difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
