Hello, and welcome to Terrastendo, the blogging site of environmental and animal rights campaigner, Paul Mahony.
The aim of this site is to help remove what I believe are blinkers and blindspots in the community, resulting from social, cultural and commercial conditioning.

Thank you for sharing the story of Esther. It brought back memories of my childhood, when I was living on a farm with my grandparents. I loved the animals so much, but my grandparents only thought of them as working animals or food. It is wonderful to find others who love animals this way too. God bless you.
Thank you for your kind words Sandy. It must have been difficult for you in that environment as a child. There are more people opening their eyes and hearts every day.
