We recently came across this article entitled “ A Teary Mother Bear Killed Her Baby and Committed Suicide- A Heart Breaking True Story”.
We have decided to share this story though it’s not related to Dogs/Cats but still very much relevant if looked from “caring about animal welfare” perspective.
The story brought tears to our eyes and lumps to our throats, for we simply cannot comprehend the amount of suffering humans are capable of inflicting upon other fellow living beings. All in the name of money-making. This is a story about how bears are kept in cages for years and their biles extracted.
Quote from the article:
“Bear bile is not a rare and precious traditinal Chinese medicine. It can be completely replaced by herbal or synthetic medicine”
We hope that by sharing this article and its information, more people can be made aware that sometimes we as consumers need to make the right/wise decisions in what we buy. As consumers, we can make a difference.
“When the buying stops, so does the killing/cruelty that is uncalled for”
Attached is the link (shall leave you to read the full heartbreaking story translated to English by Ingenira)
