Reem Lascelles – The invisible factory-farmed rabbit

Reem Lascelles 11 August 2019 32 1


Background
share close

Reem Lascelles from EVER Sanctuary is in the studio, talking about the devastating plight of rabbits farmed for meat in Australia and why they are largely invisible in our society.  She describes the appalling conditions that they are subjected to, from birth to slaughter, and the physical and psychological impacts that such conditions have on a highly sensitive, social, and intelligent animal.  Reem also explains the many different degrees of welfare protection that may be applied to this single breed, the New Zealand White, and how she follows a campaign path that incorporates both incremental reform and abolition.  EVER Sanctuary  www.eversanctuary.orgEVER Sanctuary on Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/eversanctuaryberry/Aussie Farms  www.aussiefarms.org.au
