This episode, we'll be once again visiting three different countries with 3 big stories. It's definitely proof that animals need help everywhere and every little bit we do to help them is important!

  1. U.K. VOTES ANIMALS ARE NOT SENTIENT - This vote to remove recognition of sentience in animals is a big blow to all of the hard work animal activists have put into animal rights. Removing their protection will ultimately lead to more cruelty, less convictions, and continued lackluster punishments.
  2. TRUMP AND THE ELEPHANTS - This was a very big story when it broke with social media blowing up and stories popping up all over the web. Trump's administration had suggested lifting a ban on elephant trophy imports but Trump halted this to do more studying on conservation. What's there to consider exactly? Elephants are endangered and have seen their populations drop 74% in the most extreme cases. Let's dive into trophy hunting and exactly what I think about its necessity or contribution to conservation.
  3. FIRST EVERY CRUELTY CONVICTION ON FUR FARM IN CANADA - The first ever cruelty conviction on a fur farm in Canada happened recently. There were several foxes that were immediately euthanized, sick mink stuffed into cages 6 - 8 deep, and dogs that were seized. Consider this, he was charged with 6 counts, each possessing a maximum of 18 months in jail and up to $10, 000 in fines. He was given a $5, 000 dollar fine and 75 hours of community service. A very clear indication that animals are not being held to the standard they deserve.
