On a hunt called “grindadráp”, around 2,000 Long-finned Pilot Whales are killed annually. The Faroese consider the hunt an important part of their culture and history. When I first heard about it, I quickly searched about it on google and google images. I was very enraged and sad when I saw the bloody photos. I’m really disappointed to see that humans are becoming much more of an animal than the animal itself. Many of them are stupid and stubborn that they don’t realize they’re slowly killing the earth and its inhabitants, and thanks to their stupid activities many species are now endangered and extinct.

When will animal ruelty end? The animals are living peacefully and are striving hard to survive, and we, the humans are destroying almost everything! I’m very sure that the earth would be a better place without the humans; it will be a peaceful and wonderful paradise for all the living creatures. I honestly think that humans and animals should live separately in two different planets. Maybe humans would learn how to live without them and might find a nice substitute for animal meats, so that the humans will learn to value the lives of the animals more.

I’m really hoping that animal cruelty all over the world will be stopped immediately! The animals are also an important part of the eco-system. Please, don’t wait until each and every one of them are extinct. We all know that life is very precious and valuable.  That’s why we all should value everything that has life. Will we wait until every animal is gone?! We should act before it’s too late. We might not have the power but we can simply help by signing petitions to let the authorities know that a lot of people actually cares and wants to stop the animal cruelty! Let’s all help the animals. They need justice too! =)
