Following are three letters published in Australian newspapers by an amazing animal rights activist from Australia, Jenny Moxham.
Farmed animals trapped in hell
Published on The Daily Examiner, January 8
Imagine the terror and panic endured by the tens of thousands of sheep
and cattle who were hopelessly trapped behind barbed wire fences as the
raging fires bore down on them.
Powerless to escape, these frantic and panic stricken animals would have
died slowly and agonisingly as the fire slowly engulfed and incinerated
them.
Whereas no one can be held responsible for the suffering of the wild animals
burned in the fires, those who eat animal products are directly responsible
for the suffering of the farmed animals because, if it wasn’t for them,
these animals would never have been in this situation.

Meat eaters' fault

IMAGINE the terror and panic endured by the tens of thousands of sheep
and cattle that were trapped behind barbed wire fences as the raging fires
bore down on them.
Powerless to escape, these frantic and panic-stricken animals would have
died slowly and agonisingly as the fire slowly engulfed and incinerated
them.
Whereas no one can be held responsible for the suffering of the wild animals
burned in the fires, those who eat animal products are directly responsible
for the suffering of the farmed animals because if it wasn’t for them, these
animals would never have been in this situation.
