Earth Mother's Love - Across the Species Divide

I stumbled on these videos by the artist Louise du Toit and found her songs worthy of sharing - Especially in recognition of Mother's Day and the nurturing qualities I know my readers embrace. 

I think you'll agree the messages that urge us to work for a better world are appropriate especially for a day that values healing kindness and love for our Earth Mother and all her children.


THE TIME HAS COME: "To do no harm, to help rebuild the lives that have been wrecked"

Let's STOP! Killing Other Mother's Children

Ah... Mother's Day! And don't we know the cards, flowers and candy are being showered to praise these adored and adoring Moms!

But for those who may not know... Right this very moment, indeed at any time you look at your watch or calendar some mom some where is bearing down to deliver her baby either on a kill pen floor like Spirit was born to Faith:
  

Or Luna born to Bella:

Or countless nameless ones on the run from being hazed back to Yellow Stone - Or marched with their newborns in "pairs" to the slaughterhouses:
In February, 249,000 dairy cows were sent through Federally inspected slaughter plants

Round the clock we take mother's precious newborns and use special equipment to break open their bodies with.  We hunt mother wolves when babies are in their dens.  We club baby seals while their mothers are helpless to defend them.  We steal baby elephants to train and "amuse" us in circuses.  And remove "exotic" babies from their homes to "educate" us in zoos.  We force infant primates into mad scientist's labs... And what we do for the want of eggs would horrify even an ogre.

We trap other mothers away from everything that's a natural instinct and dispose of her "excess" babies, a result of breeding that has created litters too large for each piglet to have a teat. We imprison tens of thousands of female dogs in tiny cages to spit out pet-store "inventory".

Yeah... We slaughter ewes with their lambs and nannies with their kids.  Strange how we even adopted "their names" sanitizing our relationship with them even more.  Meanwhile what human mothers do to their own kids in the way of shielding and warping the truth about "meat" and "livestock" is even more perverse still.

Yet, I know there are good people out there... Trying to live an honest life - And so I don't want to end this post totally on all the wrongs and harms that those "other" people do...

Instead, I'd like to praise this human "mom" who saved three young dairy calves "Maid Marion, Robin Hood and Little John".  Now, if your heart doesn't melt watching the rescue of these gorgeous little lives... You go right to your Mom and tell her she must have neglected something in the raising of you!

We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.

Unweaned Humans Stealing Mother's Milk from Babies

On this Mother's Day I can't help but think how strage it is that here in the US we have more calves being nursed by humans than by the mother's themselves.










The calves are all drinking
"milk replacements".

And who's drinking all the milk that nature provided for calves?  Why unweaned adult humans of course!  Humans that pay an industry to artificially inseminate females, steal babies from their mothers, and send babies to slaughter.  Humans that send pregnant cows to be killed...

Now, what is so "natural", "normal" or kind about this "wholesome" food?

Please do not eat mothers... or their babies -
Go Vegan for a better world!
